Sorry, Chuck In an article on San Jose’s publicsafety challenges in your Sept. 5 issue (“Smudge Job,” SVNews), you describe me as an “opponent of Mayor Chuck Reed’s pension reform efforts through Measure B.” For the
record, I voted to place Measure B on the ballot. While I had been critical of previous drafts of the ballot measure, I was able to support it once many (but not all) of the flaws were addressed and were incorporated into the final measure. In the same article, a quote was included by me that was very critical of the mayor and police chief. As an elected official, I have strong feelings about the importance of proactively addressing public-safety issues, but what I said in this case did not meet the standards of collegiality that I believe we should all aspire to. I would like to apologize to the mayor and police chief, and anyone else I may have offended, for not choosing my words more carefully. Going forward, I will also establish clearer criteria with reporters
in order to ensure there are no discrepancies when interviews are for background, or “on” or “off ” the record. DONALD ROCHA s J8E AFJ< :@KP :FLE:@C
Waite Lifting I am humbled to be included in a discussion about who should lead our city into the future (“Waite for It,” The Fly, Sept. 12). I would like the opportunity to expand or clarify some of the points made. Hopefully, I said that “I don’t give a hoot what people do with their own lives …” There is not us and them. It takes all of us working together to build the great community that we deserve. I am personally pro-life. But I believe
the ultimate decision on abortion rests on a conversation between a woman, her deity and those that she loves. I believe that our government should sanction civil unions and let religion organizations sanctify marriages. I consider Cindy Chavez a friend, and she is most definitely not dead. She is entitled to work diligently toward her vision of what a great community looks like. As are we all. Finally, city employees are not inherently lazy, nor evil, nor a cancer. They are an integral part of the team that will help build the community that we want. Thanks. PAT WAITE s J8E AFJ<

Business owners he talked to overwhelmingly agreed.
Wilcox teamed up with the San Jose Downtown Association and individual arts advocates to breathe some life into local entertainment—and to convince the City Council to lower the price of entertainment permits and cut down on the number of security guards a place needed to run a live event. The plan worked well enough that the city changed its tune. After years of prodding, city officials agreed in 2010 to make it cheaper to get entertainment permits, changing them from two- to four-year agreements and doing away with them altogether if a venue is small enough. The savings for various types of permits ranged from about $500 to nearly $2,000. And instead of two bouncers for every 100 patrons on the max occupancy, the city agreed to drop it to one per every 50 people actually onsite. The revision also allowed security guards to start their shifts when entertainment actually began— or 9pm at the latest, whichever came first—instead of at the venue’s opening. It was the second time the city
had updated its entertainment ordinance since creating it in 1997 to curb cruising, public nuisances and underage kids staying out late at night. Despite notable closures downtown since the latest revision a couple years ago, such as Voodoo Lounge and Toons, the number of regular live music events has tripled, Wilcox says. The musical landscape began to shift, grow and make way for the hint of a revival in local grassroots talent. “Downtown stakeholders really just wanted the city to listen to them, to let them have the freedom to create more opportunity for live music,” Wilcox says. “The city did listen ... and we’re now seeing more of those opportunities in place.” Chris Esparza, 45, who for years ran some of the biggest music shows, festivals and established nightclubs in town, has watched the city’s art culture ebb and flow the better part of two decades. What a city of San Jose’s size needs, he says, is every step of the stairway, from open mics to sold-out shows at massive arenas. “For years, half the staircase was missing,” Esparza says. “As the ecosystem goes, we’re still hurting a little bit on the venues. We need more mid-sized ones … and, yeah, more of the smaller ones to give people a chance to start somewhere.” An example of the outgrowth
the ones who go online and shell out $50 for a ticket to a band that already claimed their loyalty. “It has the potential to be really valuable,” says Kimball. “Anytime you can be in an environment where people can be turned on to something new, that’s great. It’s about being in front of a stage, you, the audience, make it cool. You’re helping the entertainer grow.” When the city hired Wilcox, downtown stakeholders, promoters, entertainers and other residents felt like their ideas were getting more traction than they had been. Four years after his hire, Wilcox has gained the trust of a host of other downtowners. “He’s completely chipped away at a pretty good clique of downtown business owners and convinced the powers that be to change the rules that everyone was pulling their hair out about,” Esparza says. “And the city trusts him, too. It’s hard to make a lot of change in his world, but we’re seeing it happen.” Wilcox admits there’s a ways to go before the local music scene catches up to San Francisco, Portland or Southby-Southwest headquarters, Austin, each considered hotbeds of musical innovation, scouting grounds for upand-coming talent and destinations for music lovers all over the country. “If we’re going to improve live music in downtown, we need homegrown talent,” says Wilcox. “We need the kids in high school to feel encouraged enough to perform—and for that to happen they need a place to play. And for more established musicians, we need to make sure they have enough stage time at small or mid-sized venues in addition to the larger ones.” The city’s trying to support private brokers in getting defunct nightclubs filled again, Wilcox says. In the meantime, spots such as San Pedro Square Market’s open-air plaza are quickly become local musical destinations. The Pagoda also popped up in the past couple years, and the club at the Fairmont holds shows in a range of genres, from reggae to rock to Top 40. “You have to think of things in the long term,” says Jerry Sauceda during a break at a recent live show at Cabrito’s, a Mexican bar and grill on South First Street. “It’s good that we’ve grown musically as a city in the past few years, but we have to think about how to make this a part of San Jose 10 years, 20 years, 30 years from now.”

of live music is the Sept. 22 Silicon Valley Sound Experience (SVSX) music festival taking place at venues throughout downtown San Jose. (Disclosure: Metro is sponsoring the event.) A strong musical, artistic culture incorporates more than just the nonprofit-driven opera, ballet and other well-established performance arts, Esparza says. But San Jose’s still a little slow to the take, he adds. Toons, Voodoo and the 23-year run of Music in the Park have all gone away in the past few years. Esparza considers the present music scene much livelier than when he first moved to San Jose in the early 1990s, back when he started his first nightclub. Then, he recalls about three other venues that hosted live music two to three times a week. A decade ago wasn’t much better, he says. South Bay born-and-bred singer/ songwriter Chris Reed, 29, echoes Esparza’s sentiment that civic leaders need to have faith in the creative force of Silicon Valley, which is better publicized for technological than artistic breakthroughs. “This year alone, I have noticed that the entire art community here in San Jose has started to become a little more mainstream,” says Reed. “The music culture [here] is unlike most cities. … It’s just a shame that there are only a few places. There is certainly no shortage of talent.” Roger Springall, who owns the live-music-friendly coffee shop Caffe Frascati on South First Street, agrees that it’s just a matter of giving creative types a place to go and letting business owners enjoy enough freedom to host them. “One of the reasons I opened Caffe Frascati was because there was nowhere downtown that was under-21 friendly … where I could have a beer, he could have a soda and we could hang out and see great local musicians performing,” says Springall, whose son was a teenager when Frascati, formerly Café Trieste, was founded four years ago. “It would be great to see downtown San Jose become known as a place where you can always find good local musicians performing.” Paul Kimball, the 44-year-old lead singer/songwriter of local folk rock/ country group Careless Hearts, says that those kinds of café-type venues help connect a new audience, garner fresh interest from people who happen to stumble into a place as opposed to

Mayor Reed’s Traffic Ticket Goes Viral HONESTLY, this could be the story of the year. It’s just so ridiculous on multiple levels. In case you didn’t know, San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed received a traffic ticket last week. He was stopped for not using his righthand turn signal at the corner of North White and Mabury roads. Making matters worse, someone in the San Jose Police Department took a photo of the ticket and passed it to an NBC reporter, who then tossed it up on Twitter. Police Chief Chris Moore was none too happy, and he’s apparently scouring his department to find the perpetrator(s). Let’s break this thing down. First things first: Did Mayor Chuck Reed get a traffic ticket for not using his turn signal or because he’s the same guy who pushed to cut police pay and pensions? Mercury News columnist Scott Herhold wrote that, according to the “cops I trust,” the officer who pulled Reed’s Toyota Prius over didn’t know it was the mayor when he initiated the stop. (On a side note, we would love to hear more about the cops Herhold doesn’t trust.) But what kind of quota garbage is pulling someone over for not using a turn signal? Running a red light— book ’em, Danno. Texting while driving—absolutely. A turn signal while driving in a lane designated for turning? C’mon! A spokesman for the mayor says he hasn’t decided if he will contest the $35 citation, but if the news gods are
kind, Charles Rufus Reed will fight it to the bitter end. The reporter who posted the photo of the ticket, NBC’s Damian Trujillo, tweeted a picture of the ticket with the following note: “EXCLUSIVE!! Amidst layoffs and pension reform, SJPD gives SJ Mayor a ticket this morning.” Possibly the least surprising aspect of all of this is that NBC had the “EXCLUSIVE.” I’m not saying the Police Officers Association had anything to do with the leak—and POA President Jim Unland says his union didn’t—but it’s no secret that the news station has a cozy relationship with the police union, and often trots out public safety stories that might as well have come straight off a POA press release. (And in case this sounds like I have something against NBC, trust me, I don’t. The reason I got into journalism was so that one day I could walk around City Hall making serious faces.) In the end, no one comes out looking good in this deal, except maybe Mayor Reed. His office released a statement to the Merc saying, “I am a cautious driver, and this was my first ticket in decades.” Sure sounds like a guy who just wanted to get to work. Now, though, the chief of police is using resources, when the SJPD is already stretched thin, trying to find out who leaked the ticket to the media. There’s an interesting angle. How much time and money will be spent on this issue, over a traffic ticket that probably should have never even been handed out in the first place? Ladies and gentlemen, your story of the week.—Josh Koehn
Aware D5 I believe most cops are good upstanding men & women who chose the profession to make a difference and not to exploit a position of power in the community, but they should do some policing of their own because stunts like this do nothing to convince the public that the cops don’t take personal vendettas against people and abuse their status and power to do it. s randall Selective enforcement of
the law is a big thing. It doesn’t matter that it’s only a $35 ticket, it’s an abuse of power. Editor’s Note: Mayor Reed’s office said the mayor plans to pay the fine, although it is expected to cost “much more” than $35.
San Jose COP Calling it Quits SAN JOSE Police Chief Chris Moore announced Monday that he is retiring at the end of January 2013. David Vossbrink, the city’s communications director, confirmed that a national search for a new chief will be launched this week. “We’ll want to get on it right away,” Vossbrink said. “It’s obviously a critically important position. It will be a national recruitment, We certainly welcome internal candidates, but we know that process is good for the department and the community.” Moore shed the interim police chief tag in February 2011, after taking over the role from Rob Davis in October 2010. During his time as chief, Moore was forced to manage a department that saw layoffs for the first time and other officers leaving in large numbers through retirement or transfer. Meanwhile, the city cut officers’ pay and aggressively pursued pension reform. In addition to a drop in department morale, this summer Moore received criticism for the rise in violence as the murder rate started to outpace last year. There was some speculation in early August that Moore lacked the support of his officers, and a no-confidence vote was taken by the Police Officers
TWITTER: @sanjoseinside FACEBOOK: SanJoseInside
Association‘s board of directors. Sources say that vote was overwhelmingly against a vote of no confidence. In November 2011, San Jose Inside posted a Q&A between Moore and readers, who submitted questions. In that Q&A, Moore addressed concerns about him retiring if sick leave payouts ended. Here is that question and answer: Q: A couple of weeks ago, on at least two different occasions, you told officers that if the sick-time buyout was lost/taken away, you were going to retire because you could not afford the loss of $200,000+ dollars (the value of your sick time). In light of the POA’s recent pension proposal to the city—it does away with the sick-time buyout—are you going to retire if the city accepts the POA’s proposal?— Where to Start? A: I, along with all other city employees, am paying close attention to the pension reform negotiations currently underway at City Hall. Every one of our city employees will be facing some tough decisions as the presumed ballot measure takes its final form. Many senior staff throughout the city are waiting to see what the final ballot language says before they make any retirement decisions. As for me, I am proud to have served in the San Jose Police Department for over 26 years. Although I am eligible to retire, I enjoy my job very much and I hope to stay for several more years. Obviously, something happened from then and now to shorten his time on the job. Sources say the City Council’s decision in August not to put an increased sales tax measure before voters was the final straw. There was a mixed reaction to City Manager Debra Figone’s selection of Moore last year over former Oakland Police Chief Tony Batts. Some community activists preferred Batts, while others felt Moore had all the necessary qualifications. POA President Jim Unland, then vice president of the police union, said at the time: “Chris Moore is a star, so if he is the pick, yeah, we’ll be very happy about that. Quite frankly, as the community gets to know him better they’re going to be real impressed with him.” —Josh Koehn

Municipal Stadium and all to benefit a rocking cause: Brandi’s own ReachuP! Foundation. Beginning in 2010, Chastain, along with Los Gatos podiatrist Joan Oloff, partnered to start the ReachuP! Foundation to mentor teenage girls, inspire them to make healthy lifestyle choices and provide them with more authentic role models than they see on pop-culture television. Oloff originally stepped into the picture, years earlier, as the foot doctor for the San Jose CyberRays women’s professional soccer club, back when Chastain played for the team. They became friends, and the rest was history. In 2010, when Chastain officially hung up her cleats as a professional player, she staged a testimonial match at Buck Shaw Stadium. The game functioned as both a celebration of her
professional career and the launching of the ReachuP! Foundation. Since Brandi was retiring, a starstudded cast of characters—men and women—participated in that game: current Major League Soccer stars, retired players, former and thencurrent members of the Women’s National Team including Mia Hamm, plus various coaches, local players and almost anyone who wanted to play. Several flew in just for the occasion. On Sept. 22, another cavalcade of activities will transpire. From noon until 4pm, an “ultimate field day” will take place in the parking lot for free. At 2pm, Brandi will host a soccer clinic, limited to 100 participants for an extra charge. The celebrity match begins at 4:15pm, and the concert with Radio Disney’s Damian & Shane Harper commences at 6:45pm. After the whole shebang concludes, a meet ’n’ greet will take place at a to-bedisclosed locale. All in all, girls who attend will take away a wealth of inspiration and positive energy. “We want them to feel engaged, to take something home with them,
to feel like they’re a part of the day,” Chastain says. “To really feel like they’ve had a great overall experience, not just going to a game and sitting down. For me, and for Joan, too, we want them to be hands-on. It’s not about somebody telling them something. It’s about them experiencing something. And then walking away feeling like they’ve really gotten something out of the day.” Quite a few athletes, almost all with local ties, will take part in the celebrity match. Yamaguchi and her husband, the retired NHL star and CSN announcer, Bret Hedican, will don the cleats and participate. Sharks legend Mike Ricci will also partake. Former Stanford volleyball superstar, Ogonna Nnamani, who’s never once even played soccer, immediately jumped on board because she strongly supports the cause. SJSU grad and former 49ers place-kicker Joe Nedney will be pl there, as will women’s freeskier Kristi th Leskinen. What a combination. Other Le folks slotted to attend include Brandi’s fo old teammates from various world ol championship squads, like Kristine ch Lilly, Tisha Venturini Hoch and Julie Li Foudy. Fo Even though not every participating athlete lives in the Bay Area, everyone at seems only a few degrees of separation from everyone else. It really feels like a local event that can affect each local girl who takes part. Chastain says this is just the beginning and she hopes the foundation can eventually grow into something that stages youth festivals across the country, all with the intention of giving young girls better role models. “Every community needs support for young people,” Chastain tells me. “Schools are overwhelmed with trying to teach and test, parents are working their tails off to make ends meet, everyone’s trying to do their best. But we need a village. Every community has special people that can bond together. And for one girl, for just one afternoon, it’s not really that long. And a great thing is, it can have a lasting impression. A little goes a long way.”

Kartheiser plays Sebastian, a writer unable to follow up on the success of his first novel, despite the efforts of a psychologist and “writer’s block whisperer” played by noted TV The Death of the Novel actress Amy Pietz (Caroline in the City, The Office, etc.). A firsthand witness to the 9/11 attacks, Sebastian Runs through has experienced a cruel string of personal tragedies. Sept. 22; $29–$74 Now acutely agoraphobic, he remains confined to his Manhattan apartment, visited only by his buddy Philip San Jose Repertory (Patrick Kelly Jones) and Claire (Zarah Mahler), a sex Theatre, San Jose worker and aspiring author. Sebastian no longer believes in literature, at least not serious literature, spending his time instead on television, Nintendo and online media. He justifies this behavior in several nihilistic rants, but it seems to boil down to, “Why take anything seriously if you’re just going to lose it tomorrow?” Things change when he meets Sheba (Vaishnavi Sharma), a liberated Arab immigrant and fan of Sebastian’s work. While her sanguinity clashes with his cynical fatalism, she isn’t what she appears to be, and this intrigues him. The second act contains some absurd twists, and a subplot critiquing the West’s malignant Islamophobia, while admirable, feels underdeveloped and forced (although timely). With that said, The Death of the Novel is a joy to watch: funny, intelligent and suspenseful, with Kartheiser’s kinetic acting matched by an equally strong supporting cast, and Sharma delivering an especially colorful, charming performance. The play is almost cinematic in its approach. One scene in which Kartheiser and Sharma leap through the apartment to the tune of a song by the Killers is more film montage than stage show. This effect, further embellished by John Iacovelli’s elaborate, immersive scenic designs, reflects a world where not only the novel, but the theatre (another art form, along with painting and rock & roll, often proclaimed “dead”) has been pushed aside by other media. It’s an interesting way for this partly tragic drama to express its optimism: a supposedly dead art displayed for all to see, imperfect, perhaps, but alive and kicking. —Sean Conwell

DUSTONIOUS MAXIMUS Johnny V’s, San Jose Thursday – 9pm; $5
San Jose’s local ska scene has been dominated by Monkey. In fact, even Dustonious Maximus (also known as Dustin James)—another major ska player in San Jose—is in fact the keyboardist/horn player for Monkey, securing the band’s monopoly around here once and for all. Not that that’s a bad thing. Dustonious, like Monkey, plays that traditional, soulful, 1960s Jamaican ska. Yet when compared to Monkey, he brings a greater degree of playfulness—dare I say goofiness—
that is more synonymous with the third wave ska movement of the ’90s, except for that whole punk-fusion element, of course. (AC)
LOOSE CUTS Caravan Lounge, San Jose Thursday – 8pm; free Rock & roll has been around so long, there is inevitably a “retro” label attached to any group that plays it straight with no frills, like locals Loose Cuts. Yet the retro label isn’t totally inaccurate. Loose Cuts channel the powerhouse era of rock of the early ’70s—just after the psychedelic era ended and riffs got heavier and before electronics, hiphop, soul and indie were standard ingredients in rock music. Loose Cuts are particularly influenced by the Who and the Kinks, combining riffs,

EASY STAR ALL-STARS
The Catalyst, Santa Cruz Sat – 9pm; $14/$19 Though we are well acquainted with Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon, how many of us have heard the Easy Star All-Stars’ Dub Side of the Moon, the tripped-out, echoand delay-heavy take on the classic album? The numbers for the latter may dip a bit, but that reflects a
lack of exposure rather than a lack of talent. Originally a studio band, the All-Stars have made a name for themselves by pulling a number of popular acts, including Radiohead, the Beatles and most recently, Michael Jackson, over to the dub side. Featuring a rotating roster of top-notch musicians this outfit puts a new twist on pop songs, taking them where they’ve never gone before. (CJ)
GEORGE THOROGOOD Mountain Winery, Saratoga Sat – 7:30pm; $35 and up Steady listeners to “classic rock” stations know that George Thorogood and the Destroyers are always good for a thumping-good commute soundtrack, from the
band’s best number, “Bad to the Bone,” to the wet and witty “I Drink Alone”—“When I drink alone/I prefer to be by myself.” The sound owes an unabashed debt to John Lee Hooker and Bo Diddley. Also on the bill is Taj Mahal, who is famous for a more folk-driven brand of the blues, on both guitar and banjo. (AR)

Rodeo Club, San Jose Sunday – 7pm; $20 A few years back, there was a
weird dispute about who were the rightful owners of the “Faster Pussycat” franchise and how it should sound. There were two groups, both with original members. One was playing industrial remixes of the classic glam-rock songs. The other was playing it just like they were written in the ’80s—raunchy, guitar-driven hard-rock songs, with heavy blues and pop elements. The original sound won out. By 2008, there was one group (and one sound) playing with the swagger and crazy hairdos of the Sunset Strip scene they arose from 20 years earlier. (AC)

=Xd`cp =Xcc`e^ THE NEW SHOW at Renegade Theatre Experiment, Collapse, is a darkly comic play by Allison Moore that focuses on a day in the life of a miserable couple in Minneapolis who, through a series of bizarre coincidences and events, resolve the issues between them. The play opens with David standing over his half-nude wife, Hannah, hypodermic needle in hand, debating their plans to attend a support group and visit a doctor who might help with their ongoing fertility problems. Suddenly, Hannah’s rebellious sister appears at their door with a suspicious package and no intentions of leaving. From there on, the plot is relatively predictable: frantic conversations among the characters, each with his or her own problems barely bubbling beneath the surface; a neurotic wife; a husband masking one illness with another; and a gregarious Collapse but eerie stranger who seduces Hannah. It’s all interesting enough, yet, somehow, it adds up to an obligatory string of coincidences that ultimately results in a weak resolution of what should be complex marital and existential issues. Those underlying themes hold too much depth to be fully explored in a 90-minute comedy.
Thursday–Saturday, 8pm, Sunday, 7pm, through Sept. 29 $12.50–$27.50 Historic Hoover Theater
Fortunately, the actors do this play more justice than it deserves, traveling through it in a frenetic, funny and sardonic manner that is pleasantly surprising in its little twists and jabs at modern culture. The crew does a tremendous job of wringing out the subtleties of commonly recycled characters: the lawyer wife (played by Alika Ululani Spencer) is a babbling, micro-managing mess, but her emotional strife and desperation seem remarkably sincere. Her husband, David (David Scott), is a despondent, practically emasculated victim of an accident that has trapped him in his own anxieties. He sulks about the set with the broken, passive look brought on by a truly dreadful existence. The sister, Susan (Sara Luna), is the stock rebellious sibling, who shows up unannounced with only vague explanations for her arrival, but she provides refreshing relief in the moments of tension between the couple. The standout character is Ted (Sean C. Murphy), an eloquent stranger who meets Hannah when she mistakes a Sex Addicts Anonymous meeting for AA. Murphy makes him serious and wry and whimsical in his chat with a manic Hannah, entrancing both her and the audience, and planting doubt about both his background and motive. The company has talent to burn, and Collapse is worth seeing just for that.—Tad Malone

Occasionally, highly tolerant people will argue that the church may be bad sci-fi, but at least it’s a discipline for extremely out-of-control people. And there is something of that argument in The Master.
Anderson’s most accomplished film to date tells of the partnership between a shell-shocked Navy vet of 1950 named Freddie (Joaquin Phoenix) and a dapper, bigger-thanlife fraud, Lancaster Dodd (Philip Seymour Hoffman). Anderson’s vaunted use of 70mm gives you the expectation of visual splashiness. The format shows its stuff in a magic-hour cruise under the Golden Gate Bridge, a motorcycle race on a desert playa and Freddie’s escape from a group of angry Salinas farmworkers across corrugated rows that go straight to the horizon. The 70mm’s real purpose is to display a brutal critique of willpower in the climax. That’s when the Olmec head of Hoffman—a skull bigger than that of the Great and Powerful Oz—lays down his own law, through the code of a late-1940s novelty song.
The Master begins and ends with the mastered one. Freddie is one of a beach full of sailors out of a Paul Cadmus painting, mixing Rheingold and coconut milk right from his perch in the tree. Later, Freddie teaches his shipmates how to drink the alcohol out of a bomb-guidance system. (The concept may look puzzling, but it happened; the Soviets did this quite a bit.) During his rambles, Freddie stows away on Dodd’s yacht. In his grand, selfamused and patronizing way, this fraud likes Freddie’s company. Underneath, Dodd sees this lumpenprole as the perfect subject for experiments, a man to be broken and remade. At a compound in Philadelphia, the “writer/adventurer/nuclear physicist” conducts quasi-psychiatric sessions with the help of his pregnant wife, played by an impressive Amy Adams, showing how much eroticism there can be in frost and poisonous disappointment. Dodd’s new crusade—the Cause—develops as his family and entourage head west. Anderson keeps you wrong-footed, dropping you into unexpected
scenes, locations and times. The movie rattles you, keeps you feeling put-off and slightly kidnapped. The improvised acting doesn’t start on the beats you expect. This may be part of The Master’s sympathy for Freddie—Anderson seems to view this self-proclaimed master through a disordered state of mind. Anderson has done this before. He’s not the kind of moviemaker who does films that add up neatly. Sometimes, he sanctions repetitious wheel-spinning from his actors, as in the improv by Daniel Day-Lewis in the last 20 minutes of There Will Be Blood. And we get glimpses of characters who surely had more to do in some other, unseen variation of this film. Laura Dern, for example, gets little as a society dame who is allied with Dodd. Dodd might be as much a salute to Orson Welles. It’s there in the mountebankism, the stature and the organlike voice. Hoffman’s Dodd meets a match in forcefulness in Phoenix’s kaleidoscopic acting. It’s as unpredictable a performance as we’ve seen in the movies. Phoenix is very original, even as he shows facets that recall the best of Brando, Connery and Robert Ryan. Just as The Godfather spoke to the inner despair of the compromised businessman—it was Arthur Miller with guns—The Master is clearly more than a particularly weird buddy movie. Anderson does include some straight-faced mockery of the paranoia of cults; Dodd makes his friendly labRhesus Freddie swear he’s not actually an agent of extraterrestrials. What’s underneath, however, is about as funny as a malignant virus. Dodd’s stirring of Freddie’s soft brains heralds bigger things: the rise of the intelligence apparatus, the think-tank, Cointelpro, the dawn of unchecked ruthlessness, the lies of World War II furthered by new means. The bigger picture looms like Hoffman’s screen-filling head, demanding obedience in sickeningly insinuating tones. The voice echoes against the background of postwar America, a nation about to get gigantic.

(Plays Sep 22-23 in Palo Alto at the Stanford Theatre.) (RvB)
HAIRSPRAY (2007) The sing-along version. (Plays Sep 21-23 in San Jose at the Retro Dome.) (RvB)
LITTLE MAN, WHAT NOW?/THE GOOD FAIRY (1934/1935) Two with Margaret Sullavan. Little Man, What Now? is a Weimar Republic drama of a young married couple in dread of unemployment. Plus something to counteract the bitterness: the Preston Sturges–scripted delight about the
charmed Luisa Ginglebusher (Sullavan), a former orphan turned usher in a Budapest picture palace, who is helped by a foxy (or rather foxine) businessman (Frank Morgan). (Plays Sep 19-20 in Palo Alto at the Stanford Theatre.) (RvB)
NILES FILM MUSEUM Regularly scheduled programs of silent films. Sat: Salomy Jane (1914), a Bret Harte adaptation, plus shorts. Sun at 4pm: Doggie Boogie (2011). (Plays Sep 22-23 in Fremont at the Edison Theater.) (RvB)
“THE BIGGEST AND BEST RESIDENT EVIL YET.” Evan Dickson, BLOODY-DISGUSTING.COM
Reviews CHICKEN WITH PLUMS (PG-13; 93 min.) This French language drama, based on an acclaimed Iranian graphic novel, follows the last eight days of Nasser Ali Khan, a world renowned violinist who looses his taste for life and opts, instead, to simply await death after his beloved violin is broken.
LAST OUNCE OF COURAGE (PG; 101 min.) Fair warning: I’m not sure that this is a real film, so excuse the quotation marks. This heartwarming “movie” tells the “story” of a local war hero who inspires a curmudgeon mayor to shake off the apathy and deal with the mutual tragedy befallen both their families during the war. The mayor and the war hero may be related, and the actor may be named the same thing as the character. Just like the war in Iraq, this movie will ultimately prove difficult to understand and harder to get out of.
RESIDENT EVIL: RETRIBUTION
EXCLUSIVE ENGAGEMENT STARTS FRIDAY, SEPT. 21 “PURE EXHILARATION...TRULY SFX MAGAZINE
(R; 95 min.) The fifth in the seemingly endless science fiction action series (that appears to exist only so that star Milla Jovovich will have premieres to attend) features more of the same virus turning more of the human population into zombies and more of amnesiac Alice shooting them up with great relish.
CINÉARTS@SANTANA ROW 3088 Olsen Drive, San Jose (800) FANDANGO
SPECTACULAR!”
HUNGARIAN RHAPSODY—QUEEN: LIVE IN BUDAPEST (NR; 90 min.) Not much needs to be said about this one other than it’s Queen, in Budapest, on a big screen. That’s all, folks.

The lo-fi, stark recording adds to the rustic quality, but aside from the obvious Americana influence of the music—the banjo and mandolin help in that regard—the music is infused with a gospel edge, at least in terms of the emotional depth.
Blank Club
There is no doubt that Bonnie and the Bang Bang are a part of the indiefolk fusion movement. The bluegrass instrumentation and old-timey spiritual sound are tempered with a subtly lush layering. On top of the plucking of each guitar string is the rich tone of the long sustaining keyboard and the eerie, macabre vocal harmonies, creating a dark, gothicindie folk sound that is like a surreal artifact of a long-forgotten era— something like reading an alternative reality history book.—Aaron Carnes

Forget the direct approach. She’d roll her eyes behind some prime minister’s back, burn sage after he leaves and make the Joint Chiefs hold hands and chant, “Shine white light on our borders and restore our protective womb of national security!” Men and women approach conflict in very different ways. Men have an easier time being direct because they evolved to be the competitors of the species and see trying to top one another as a normal part of life. If the guys were bugged by a guy in their group, one of them would probably just blurt out, “You’re being a dick. Be less of a dick.” Women, on the other hand, evolved to be the cooperators, nurturers and empathizers of the species, prizing group bondedness and keeping the peace. This sounds so much nicer than how the menfolk do things but actually leads to ugly indirect aggression like dirty looks, spiteful gossip and
shunning. Though it’s best not to go around breaking one another’s noses over who has the cutest shoes, women often end up festering with nastiness, while guys can sometimes sock each other and then go off and have a beer. Assuming you lack the Bewitched skill set—the power to twitch your nose and transform or relocate people and objects—wishing things were different is merely a way to kill time while in line at the supermarket. One of you needs to take this woman aside, gently explain the group culture and give her a couple examples of things she’s said that don’t quite mesh with it. She also needs to be told that it’s kind of a problem when she gets likkered up. The direct approach is tough in the moment but ultimately less hurtful than the silent one, and it gives her a chance to mend her ways. If she keeps on harshing, it should be no surprise to her when she’s invited not to come, having been given fair warning that your group is more Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Chi than The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pabst.

Sure, as a small-town gay guy, it’s much harder to find dates than it would be in one of the gay capitals of the universe. Although straight people in Tinyville do have a bigger pool of potential partners, what you and many straight people everywhere have in common is the unwarranted indignation that the dating world was not immediately your oyster. Yes, meeting people is hard. Yes, people on dating sites misrepresent themselves. What you have that straight people don’t is the gay community—or the
possibility of a gay community. Either find it or create it. Online dates who turn out to be duds romantically can become friends or at least connections to other gay men. Maybe set up a First Friday drinks night for gay men in small towns around you and get all the rainbow-colored fish in one bowl. You might not immediately find a boyfriend, but you’ll create a fun social scene that should prove more productive than spending three hours pretending to check your phone next to the lone gay video in the town video store.
