FAQ

On a midnight clear 2,000 years ago, three wise men enter a manger where a baby is wrapped in swaddling clothes. It is an infant called Brian, and the three wise men are in the wrong manger. For the rest of his life, Brian finds himself regarded as something of a messiah, yet he’s always in the shadow of this other guy from Galilee. Brian is witness to the Sermon of the Mount, but his seat is in such a bad location that he can’t hear any of it. Ultimately, he is brought before Pontius Pilate and sentenced to crucifixion, which takes place at that crowded, nonexclusive execution site a few blocks shy of Calvary. Rather than utter the Last Six Words, Brian leads his fellow crucifixees in a spirited rendition of a British music-hall cheer-up song Always Look on the

Bright Side of Life.

mean girlsCady Heron is a 15-year-old girl who has spent most of her life in Africa, where she was home-schooled by her zoologist parents. When her family relocates to the United States, Cady finds herself attending a high school in suburban Illinois, where she gets a crash course in the various sub-strata of the student body: the jocks, the cheerleaders, the stoners, the “cool” kids, and so on. Much to her surprise, Cady finds herself embraced by a clique of rich and popular girls known to outsiders as “the Plastics,” led by Regina George. While Cady is grateful for her new friends, it doesn’t take long for her to realize how manipulative they can be, and she soon discovers she’s violated an unwritten

law when she goes out on a date with Aaron, Regina’s former boyfriend.

best in showThe owners of five show dogs head for the Mayflower Kennel Club Dog Show. A film crew interviews them as they prepare for the trip, arrive at Philly’s Taft Hotel, and compete. From Florida come the Flecks: she keeps running into old lovers. A wordless ancient in a wheelchair and his buxom trophy wife who may have a thing for the dog’s handler own the two-time defending best in show, a poodle. From the piney woods of N.C. comes a fella who wants to be a ventriloquist. High-strung DINKs feud loudly in front of their Weimaraner. Two outré gay men from Tribeca round out the profiled owners. The dog show

brings out the essence of the humans. Who will be best in show?
