MOVIE BIZ BUZZ: Pete Anderson's Break
I consider myself only a part-time filmmaker, so I can't say I belong in the same league as someone like Pete Anderson. When he told me Break marks not only his seventh time in the director's chair of a feature film, but also his seventeenth screenplay, my jaw dropped just a bit. I had to ask him to repeat himself. You have to admire persistence like this.
The 43-year-old Anderson seems to tear into every project like a tornado of talent, a battalion of one oftentimes taking on multiple duties with boundless energy. Anderson also produced, edited, and did some acting in Break, a dramedy about strangers whose only connection is a single gun. ... -- Christopher Woods
VISUAL EDGE: Art Chantry's Parkland Is Burning

Inside Fulcrum there are three rooms loaded with Chantry's posters, representing 40 years of his art. You've probably seen many of these posters before, but probably not all at the same time, and never grouped together like this. Unless you are a fanatical collector I can almost guarantee you'll see many of Chantry's posters in this show that you've never seen before. ... -- Alec Clayton
THEATER REVIEW: Something Wicked This Way Comes

Ray Bradbury's Something Wicked This Way Comes is awfully hard to stage. The novel relies much more on introspection and narrative than dialogue and action, and is thus in many ways the antithesis of a medium that eliminates the internal monologue.
Bradbury's adaptation, and the Lakewood Playhouse production, rely much more on recreating the dark tone and vivid imagery of the novel than its thematic depth.
As such, Something Wicked must be very technically ambitious, and in this director David Domkoski and his design crew succeed quite thoroughly. ... -- Joe Izenman
