Other than the pointed abuse of privilege in this case, it turns out the guy wasn’t even her attorney, NewsOK reported. It took three months for the sham to be discovered, but after it was, the inmate agreed to participate in a sting, Sheriff John Whetsel told NewsOK. Back in January, she’d contacted attorney Frank […]

Drummer porn
In a report from the news site Heavy, Meyering is “resisting extradition to California,” a state with strict antirevenge porn laws. What does that make us Okies? Oklahomans are tough on crime, and we’re tough on porn, but we’re not quite sure what to do when it’s a combination of the two. Also, if you […]

Most Fabulous donation
That letter was sent to the governor’s office and all members of the state Legislature, among others. They said the play, which is a satirical look at “Adam and Steve” in the Garden of Eden, violates Oklahoma’s obscenity laws. The pastors wanted the play closed and the producers and actors held accountable by law enforcement. […]

Stories We Tell
In this intensely personal, potentially embarrassing work, actress-turned-director Sarah Polley (Take This Waltz) gathers her brothers, sisters, father and family friends in order to piece together a portrait of her late mother, Diane, who died of cancer when Sarah still a child. That alone is hardly remarkable enough to merit a feature-length look. Note, however, […]

A Boy and His Dog
One would think that a film — boasting source material from a writer with an especially rabid following — that established the visual template for the now ubiquitous post-apocalyptic wasteland and stars Don Johnson would have caught on at some point over the past 38 years. Yet, not even when there was such a shortage […]

Ishtar
Derided before it even premiered in the spring of 1987, the last stand (directorial, at least) of Elaine May cast Dustin Hoffman and Warren Beatty against type: Hoffman is Chuck, the P-magnet; Beatty, Lyle the dolt. Both are struggling songwriters stuck in the New York City supper circuit. The joke is that they’re struggling because […]

Magic Magic
While you’re at it, give Magic Magic credit for being something different, even if it ultimately proves a disappointment. Written and directed by one Sebastián Silva, the Chilean-set chiller sends Alicia (Juno Temple, Killer Joe) on her first trip outside the United States. She joins cousin Sarah (Emily Browning, Sucker Punch) and a few of […]
