Art Zone @ The Movies: Margaret’s Blessed Mess

Bless This Mess Margaret, Dir. Kenneth Lonergan Now Playing at SIFF Cinema You Can Count on Me, the Oscar-nominated 2000 directorial debut of playwright Kenneth Lonergan, was a marvel in miniature:  a brilliantly acted, acutely rendered character study that displayed a firm grasp of what to leave unsaid.

Art Zone @ The Movies: A-List Spin Kicks & a Gaggle of Docs

Haywire Dir. Steven Soderbergh Now Playing Director Steven Soderbergh has long made a habit of polishing up some pretty dusty genres, with results as varied as the glitzy heist movie (Ocean’s 11), the weepily inspirational true story (Erin Brockovich), and the all-star disaster flick (Contagion). Although a certain ironic humor pulses through[More]

Art Zone Backstage Blog 14: A Few Hundred Words about Greg Thompson

Art Zone Backstage Blog 9: Climate Change

So, what happened was, the air conditioner in the Art Zone studio went kerblammo, a potentially disastrous occurrence that, in defiance of both logic and the laws of physics, somehow ended up making the studio colder. Meanwhile, my work area, which is normally so frigid that you can actually feel the air[More]

Art Zone Backstage Blog #8: Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes

It was a bit of a transitional week at the Art Zone Studios, as we experienced a major giveth and taketh away situation in the director chair. First up, time to bid a fond farewell to Steve Wilson, who did an unbelievable job filling in for the last three months. Thanks mightily,[More]

Art Zone Backstage Blog #7: Don’t call it a comeback

And … we’re back? The first show of the New Year found the Art Zone crew tan, fit, rested, and ready to go. Well, rested, anyway. Still, once we worked through a few early rusty spots -- and director Steve Wilson’s desperate need for a lozenge -- the end result was a[More]
