		<description><![CDATA[An art-house jaw-dropper, Canadian filmmaker Nadine Labaki&#8217;s &#8220;Where Do We Go Now?&#8221; (Et maintenant on va où?) manages to annoy and offend in almost equal measure in its many miscalculated scenes, from cultural caricature to musical numbers and back again. The opening scene, a dance tableau that seems like it could be drawn from the 1960s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED Andrew Davis began his career as a cameraman in Chicago in the 1960s, and before his largest success, &#8220;The Fugitive&#8221; (1993), Davis was a poet of the Chicago streets in action films like &#8220;Code of Silence&#8221; (1985) and &#8220;The Package&#8221; (1989). (A variation on the Oswald-was-a-patsy conspiracy theory, &#8220;The Package&#8221; used dozens of Chicago [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED Almost shot-for-shot-faithful variations on Herbert Ross&#8217; choreography from 1984&#8242;s &#8220;Footloose&#8221; are the first of the enjoyably engaging elements of Craig Brewer&#8217;s (&#8220;Hustle and Flow&#8221;) Southern variation on the Kevin Bacon-star-maker, largely cornball fashioned with dispatch. In bits and touches, Brewer makes &#8220;Footloose&#8221; personal. It&#8217;s set in the apocryphal backwater of &#8220;Bomont,&#8221; population 18,300, not too [...]]]></description>

Walt Disney Animation Studios preserves the interplay between screen and storybook page found in 1977&#8242;s &#8220;The [...]]]></description>

Live productions broadcast in high definition from other climes, like recent showings of Danny Boyle&#8217;s &#8220;Frankenstein&#8221; from London at theaters like the Music Box join opera as a higher-ticket way to get grown-ups into the cinema.
