Roger Ebert’s last review: ‘To the Wonder’
Appropriately it’s a review of a film by a director Mr. Ebert held in great esteem: Terrence Malick. Of Malick’s last film, Mr. Ebert remarked: “There were once several directors who yearned to make no less than a masterpiece but now there are only a few. Malick has stayed true to that hope ever since his first feature in 1973.”Continue reading on Chicago Sun-Times.

Jared Diamond: Tales From The World Before Yesterday
Over the years I've had the privilege to work with some of the more interesting thinkers of our time, individuals who, through their research in biology, physics, psychology, computer science, provide us with the evidence-based results that are the basis of the most reliable method of our knowledge about who and what we are. In this regard, nothing beats sitting down with Jared Diamond after one of his many (41 to date) trips to New Guinea to listen to this master story-teller hold forth on the windows to our past, whether the topic is rare birds, "primitive peoples", birth practices, the lives of the old, war, or the characteristics of all human societies until the rise of state societies with laws and government, beginning around 5,500 years ago.
A few months ago I visited him at his home in Bel Air, California, just a few doors up the road from the Bel Air Hotel. We sat for an hour while he recounted some his experiences in New Guinea. Fortunately, I had my video camera with me. What follows are three videotaped stories, which I have taken the liberty of presenting with the following titles:
- "If You Camp Under Dead Trees, And Each Dead Tree Has A One In 1,000 Chance Of Falling On You And Killing You"
- "One Of The Stupider, More Dangerous Things That I Did In My Life"
- "How I Discovered The Long-Lost Bowerbird, Initially Without Realizing It"
