  • Eddie Murphy, off the couch, is rejuvenated by 'Dolemite'

    JAKE COYLE AP Film Writer|Updated Oct 1, 2019

    TORONTO - Eddie Murphy is very fond of his couch. He talks about it a lot. It's where, according to Murphy, he's spent much of his last few years, in a happy retreat from the public eye. He's a natural homebody, content to stick close to his Los Angeles home with his family (he has 10 kids) around him. One of the funniest, most electric comedians ever - the leather-suited dynamo of "Delirious," the street-wise rebel of "Beverly Hills Cop" - just lounging. But after a decade... Full story

  • 'Victor/Victoria' boasts stellar cast

    Elizabeth Youngman-Westphal, Special to Village News|Updated Sep 22, 2019

    Moonlight Amphitheater brings out the stars, overhead and onstage. Their newest production, "Victor/Victoria," is the gender-bending tale of a woman, dressed as a man, pretending to be a woman. Even though it sounds loopy, the play works brilliantly. It's a fabulous retelling of Blake Edwards' film by the same name from 1982. The film starred his talented wife, Julie Andrews, as Victoria and Robert Preston as Toddy, with James Garner as King Marchan. Those are big shoes to...

  • 'Game of Thrones,' 'Veep' make last Emmy Awards stand

    LYNN ELBER AP Television Writer|Updated Sep 19, 2019

    LOS ANGELES (AP) — "Game of Thrones" has dominated the Emmy Awards with the formidable power of, say, your average fearsome, flame-belching dragon. Same goes for "Veep," but picture a cutthroat politician instead. The drama and comedy series are among the front-runners for Sunday's ceremony (5 p.m. Fox) for their concluding seasons, a last chance to rule. But will they? There's suspense as well over the never-crowned women of "Game of Thrones," whether Sandra Oh and Billy Porter will make Emmy history, and how much s... Full story

  • 'Amadeus' is a visual dream

    Elizabeth Youngman-Westphal, Special to Village News|Updated Sep 11, 2019

    "Amadeus" is a visual delight. From the elegant costumes to the lavish set, it appears enough was not a consideration for Emperor Joseph II of Austria. Indicative of the Viennese Court for the 10 years between 1781 and 1791, Emperor Joseph was omnipotent in all things. Even so, he could be influenced by those he trusted like Antonio Salieri, the Royal Kapellmeister (music master). On the day of his death, Salieri (Tony Amendola) recalls his every misdeed even his argument... Full story

  • Apple rolls out new streaming TV service for $5 a month

    Michael Liedtke, AP Technology Writer|Updated Sep 10, 2019

    CUPERTINO — Apple is finally taking on Netflix with its own streaming television service and, uncharacteristically for the company, offering it at a bargain price — $5 a month beginning on Nov. 1. Walt Disney Co. is launching its own assault on Netflix the same month, for just $7. It may be sheer coincidence that the cost of paying for both Apple and Disney subscriptions will still be a dollar less than Netflix's main plan, priced at $13 a month.
