This week the Bleader presents a series of commentaries on Kenneth Lonergan's drama Margaret (2011), which screens through Thursday at Gene Siskel Film Center.
Watching Margaret for the second time this weekend, I was struck by how much screen time is taken up by teachers. The main character, Lisa Cohen (Anna Paquin), is an upperclassman at a place she describes as "a private school for rich Jews" (if memory serves), and writer-director Kenneth Lonergan includes numerous scenes of her classes, which are relatively small and all seem to center on student discussion.…

On the heels of M.I.A.'s now-infamous Super Bowl up-yours (I'd again like to thank the rewind control on my DVR for being so special), Adele gave her own middle finger yesterday at the Brit Awards when her speech was cut off just after she won album of the year—the live broadcast had run over and the recently reanimated corpses in Blur needed to be carted onstage to perform. Her flip of the bird wasn't overly snide or hateful, but instead a "Well, this fucking sucks" kind of moment; it actually looks like her brain and finger weren't on the same page at the time.…

At Bridgeview's Sheeba, The Aljahmi brothers turn out authentic Yemeni stews, roast meats, and tanoor-baked bread.
by Mike Sula
Culinary foams weren't invented by El Bulli's Ferran Adria, the groundbreaking Spanish chef most associated with the modernist cuisine movement. White bean foam, chocolate air, and granadilla clouds may have gobsmacked diners on the Costa Brava coast 18 years ago—and there are carrot, smoke, and potato foams on the menu at Next Restaurant's El Bulli tribute.…

As the pinball industry struggles, will rock 'n' roll be its salvation?
by Miles Raymer
Walking through the Stern Pinball factory, you're rarely out of sight of Angus Young's sneering gaze. It's the very same sneer that appears on the cover of AC/DC's 1979 album Highway to Hell, only here it's rendered in silk-screened and airbrushed paint on large wooden boards.…

With Crazy Horse, Frederick Wiseman documents a legendary nude cabaret
by J.R. Jones
Even Frederick Wiseman needs a fantasy life. Revered for his ascetic narrative style (no clips, no voice-over, no talking heads, no score) and probing examination of American institutions (high school, the military, the court system, public housing), Wiseman has taken detours into the dance world before with Ballet (1995) and La Danse (2009).…

Molly Shanahan premieres The Delicate Hour at the Dance Center of Columbia College
by Laura Molzahn
Molly Shanahan has been exploring the alchemy of transformation for several years. But in her new The Delicate Hour, inspired by sunsets she watched at an artists' retreat in rural Pennsylvania, she intentionally occupies an shifting, slippery space.…

The Reader goes to charter school
by Mick Dumke and Ben Joravsky
In the spirit of diplomacy—think Sadat going to Israel, Nixon to China, or Obama to Congress—the Reader recently paid a visit to an UNO charter school. The United Neighborhood Organization is the former Alinsky-styled community group that's built an empire of 11 charters and counting through what executive director Juan Rangel describes as years of "hard work."…

Diamanda Galas talks to Mark Solotroff of Anatomy of Habit
Diamanda Galas could have been famous just for her beautiful, phantasmagoric voice: ranging from a guttural multiphonic growl to a nerve-shattering shriek, it's powerful enough to contain oceans of horror and grief, yet so razor-sharp and tightly controlled it could carve an epigram into a wedding ring. But Galas is much more than a singer.…

Outsider show "Heaven + Hell" runs at both LUMA and Intuit
by Sam Worley
Art inspired by the great Christian duality should be as grand as possible, or what's a heaven (and hell) for? And so the biggest pieces in "Heaven + Hell"—a show that sprawls across two galleries, the Loyola University Museum of Art and Intuit—are a couple of 9-by-12-foot paintings by William Thomas Thompson, depicting the titular concepts.…

Woody Harrelson is a cop with woman problems in Oren Moverman's Rampart
by J.R. Jones
We've all seen this movie before: a hard-nosed cop bends the law to keep bad guys off the street, blasting the cowardly suits in the department who privilege political correctness over public safety. When he walks into an interrogation room, everyone finds somewhere else to be; when he comes back out, the brutalized suspect has given up the information they need.…

Each week, we ask you to show us something. This week it's Josh Garrett's home brewery
by Kevin Warwick
Last month's "underground" home brewers' event, Brew Ho-Ho, was crammed with self-appointed beer connoisseurs (not terribly unlike myself) looking to sample every pomegranate-infused triple IPA and red-velvet-cake double porter available. With little room to explore, I camped out near Josh Garrett's Powell Brew House booth, repeatedly sampling his various milk stout concoctions—the best was the vanilla, the strangest was the peanut butter cup.…
