The water fountain is splashing in front of the Detroit Institute of Arts, the trees have blossomed at the main branch of the Detroit Public Library, and once again, spring has come to the Detroit Cultural Center.
On this sunny, pleasant mid-spring day (April 27, 2008), I attended the last day of [...]]]></description>

Even before the entertainment began on the night when the Redford Theatre celebrated its 80th birthday (April 19, 2008), I could sense a deeper, richer feeling in the theater than I usually did.  This feeling brought out more of the texture and details of this ancient wonder, like the intimate lighting [...]]]></description>

The blank film lay on the table in the Grand Foyer of the Michigan Theater, waiting for visitors to the 46th annual Ann Arbor Film Festival to mark up frames to produce a series of images that would later be projected on the main theater screen.  A few feet away, some toy animals [...]]]></description>

Notes from a movie palace weekend (March 14-16, 2008):
After enjoying the focused intimacy of the Redford Theatre (Friday, March 14, 2008) and the Detroit Film Theatre (March 15), the spaciousness of the Michigan Theater on March 16 hit me very strongly. Steven Ball’s organ playing drifted out into the Grand Foyer [...]]]></description>

If I had to pick one film that tied together the interests of most visitors to the Detroit Film Theatre, Michigan Theater, and Redford Theatre, it would be Buster Keaton&#8217;s 1927 silent comedy The General. A close second would be The Phantom of the Opera (1925) with Lon Chaney. 
Keaton&#8217;s acrobatics and [...]]]></description>

Africa has gotten a lot of headlines lately.  U.S. President George W. Bush has been visiting the continent, helping bring more world attention to African problems like political conflict, AIDS and malaria. And one of the contenders for succeeding Bush next year has an African-born father—Barack Obama.

The Detroit Film Theatre has [...]]]></description>

An 81-year-old American silent movie and a current French film recently gave Michigan Theater audiences the chance to see how movies can entertain through different kinds of non-verbal communication.
At the Feb. 4, 2008 showing of the 1927 movie Wings, Michigan organist Steven Ball helped audience better appreciate the silent film experience, with the first movie to win [...]]]></description>

At the Redford Theatre&#8217;s Feb. 1, 2008 screening of Tarzan and His Mate, it was hard to imagine what might have astonished the crowd the most.
Was it the sexiness of Maureen O&#8217;Sullivan and her relationship with Tarzan?  Or the stunning violence that probably took as many lives as the recent Rambo [...]]]></description>

I made my second visit today to the Detroit Historical Museum&#8217;s fascinating exhibit about movie theaters in Detroit.  Detroit: The &#8220;Reel&#8221; Story is a valuable record of local history, and any movie buff should hurry to see this show and find out how the Detroit moviegoing experience has evolved through the [...]]]></description>

The big V in VistaVision jumped out at the audience of the Redford Theatre at the Jan. 19, 2008 showing of the 1955 Alfred Hitchcock thriller To Catch a Thief.  Soon, this Paramount Pictures widescreen process was taking the Saturday night crowd on a scenic tour of the Mediterranean coast of France.
