  • The Tumultuous Life of Demi Moore
    Demi Moore has remained a public figure for the last 20 years, despite the fact that in that time she starred in only two, maybe three, bona fide hit movies. There's just something about her that we can't get enough of.
  • Salma Hayek: Artist Profile
    Salma Hayek's road to Hollywood stardom was one fraught with challenges. Not only was she required to devote her entire life to her goal, as most up-and-coming stars must, she also had to leave a successful career in Mexico to do it. And learn English.
  • Kate Chopin: The Tragic Life of the Author of 'The Awakening'
    Kate Chopin is one of the truly tragic stories that Literature has to offer. Although she did not end her life in a premature suicide, as far too many of our poets and novelists have done, her particular time of living simply was not ready for her.
  • Kevin Smith: The Rocky Road of the Director of Clerks
    Kevin Smith was 24 when he made his debut as the director and supporting cast member in the cult comedy/independent film classic Clerks. However, he had already seen the kind of failure that would mark his follow up attempts.
  • Matt Damon: Artist Profile
    Matt Damon was born into a well-to-do family on October 8, 1970. His father was a tax preparer and his mother was a college professor. Nonetheless, Damon would bring a strong work ethic and the patience necessary to become a star on his own.
  • Naughty Language and How to Hear Poetry
    An investigation of the role of sound in poetry.
  • Allen Ginsberg: Poet Whose Work Led to Rap Music
    By the age of 30, Ginsberg would be briefly imprisoned for charges of obscenity produced against his first book, Howl and Other Poems (1956). This is his story.
  • Duma: A Family Movie Not to Be Forgotten
    When I saw the preview for Duma, I thought to myself, "Didn't I already see that movie, under its old title Two Brothers?" But, come to find out, it's a totally different movie. A much better movie.
  • I Heart I Heart Huckabees
    David O. Russel's I Heart Huckabees is a two-hour investigation of the meaning of life and everyone's connection to each other. Heavy? Not really.
