I grab whatever seems appropriate, then I go home and dump everything into a big mixing bowl.(No leftover half-bottles of seasoning for me.) When blended, I have a year’s supply of secret family heirloom barbecue rub for less than $10, which I pack and seal in two plastic yogourt tubs.I carefully store them under controlled temperature conditions (yeah, right!) in the kitchen cupboard beside the instant coffee.And that’s it.As barbecue aficionados know, dry rub makes all the difference between ordinary food and superlative food.Simply massage the rub into meats before cooking, and guests will think you’re a genius.A rub is a simple mix of salt, sugar, spices and herbs that add flavour to the meat.There are two ways to use a dry rub: Either sprinkle it on food just before grilling, when the rub acts as a seasoning.Or apply it up to a day in advance, in which case the rub both seasons and semi-cures the meat.The second way gives you a deeper flavour.To apply, simply sprinkle it over the food, then gently rub it in with your fingertips.You typically use one tablespoon (15 mL) of dry rub per pound (500 grams) of meat.I use it on rôtisserie chicken, too.There are many different rubs, each with its own flavour characteristic.For example, Kansas City Ribs are covered in a thick, sweet rub that usually contains brown sugar.Memphis Style Ribs have a spicier rub, but use no or very little sugar.Finding the right barbecue rub for your taste isn’t difficult.Start with something simple: If you like sweet, add granulated sugar; if you want to spice things up, add maybe a teaspoon of cayenne pepper to the mix, along with some chili powder.My secret formula always includes a few basics from the discount store: powdered garlic (not garlic salt), powdered onion, paprika, chili powder, two tablespoons (30 mL) of ground pepper and cumin.This year I threw in a 4 1/2-ounce (127-gram) plastic jar of Cajun seasoning, and a 5.6-ounce (160-g) container of something called “Soul” seasoning, which contains salt, sugar and a little MSG.I also tossed in one heaping teaspoon (5 mL) of cocoa powder and a teaspoon (5 mL) of dry mustard.Next year, I may even add a little cinnamon.Try it at home, and I’m certain you’ll be satisfied with the result.(Unless you do something silly, like adding a whole bottle of fire-hot cayenne pepper, you can hardly mess it up.) Use this rub on whatever meat you fancy, and you can smile knowingly, basking in accolades, as King or Queen of the barbecue this summer.—CanWest News Service mbTHEi RECORD May 13 - May 19, 2005 page 3 A taste of Broadway comes to Stanstead -* 9%^ ®f # i f?COURTESY STEPHEN PIETRANONI Director/producer/actor Stephen Pietrantoni checks out the acoustics in the Haskell Opera House.V?- — ,jr.¦ — -fi” By Nancy Nourse Record Correspondent A taste of Broadway will be available to theatre lovers Saturday at the Haskell Opera House in Stanstead.Inspire Me! Songs of Inspiration from Broadway is an original compilation of music from shows such as Oklahoma, South Pacific, The Producers and Wicked, specially prepared in Montreal with musical theatre talents from both sides of the border.Stephen Pietrantoni will not only be filling the shoes of producer/director, he will also be performing in this one-performance only, cabaret-style concert.Readers may remember Pietrantoni from his roles in The Great Houdini, with the Yiddish Theatre at the Sayde Bronfman Centre, Company at the Centaur or when he produced, directed and played in Oh, Coward! at The Piggery Theatre last summer.He has also performed with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the Tanglewood Festival Chorus and recently produced a mini CD entitled Broadway Baby.“We are offering this concert free of charge to the public as a pilot project to see how the audience reacts to the concert-style approach when it relates to songs from musical theatre,” he explained, adding that the program will be a blend of traditional and less traditional interpretations by a total of 15 performers.“Adding to the energy of the evening will be the use of both the upright and baby grand pianos.Hosting will be Yvette Ghattas, whom I have a tendency to describe as a one-woman United Nations of Comedy.” Ghattas has performed in theatre, musicals and radio commercials for many years, acting as emcee at special events and creating a one-woman stand-up comedy show called Fresh Off the Boat based on her immigrant parents.Included in her many talents is the ability to speak five languages and kickboxing.She recently launched Multiply Inc., a company that trains non-profit organizations how to fundraise more efficiently.Performer Burney Lieberman’s deep, enticing voice has graced many stages over the years, performing numerous leading and supporting roles in such Gilbert & Sullivan operettas as The Mikado and touring internationally with the Yiddish Theatre in their production of the musical revue On Second Avenue.When not performing, Lieberman is an active vol- unteer, devoting time every week at the Jewish General Hospital and pursuing a parallel career in found art and portrait photography.Joining Lieberman will be Neil Napier, one of the busiest theatre actors in Montreal.His recent credits include Into the Woods, The Shape of Things and The Foursome with Townships Stage.He will be returning to the Eastern Townships this summer to perform in the musical Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change, once again with Townships Stage in North Hatley at The Piggery.He has also appeared in a number of horror films including Slashers.“I like producing and directing as much as I do performing — spreading the power of words and music.Even though we are in the 21st century, we must try our best not to lose that human connection when many around us are turning to technology,” said Pietranoni.“This show has something for all ages and types.It is more than a recital, but not quite a full musical, featuring theatrical staging and live musicians, in an attempt to revive the connection between people.“It is about exciting people about new opportunities, making opportunities when there seems to be few available, creating an alternative to the latest carnage on television today.” This group will not only be celebrating years of Broadway musicals but also commemorating something that is even closer to Pietrantoni’s heart than his love of music.Special guest of honour for the evening will be Pietrantoni’s mother who will be celebrating her 80th birthday by coming to see her son perform.June Pietranoni has been a lifelong supporter of live theatre, served on the board of directors of some community theatres and been a stage performer herself.A Web site has been created for on-line reservations at www.goshow.biz/info.html or contact the Haskell Opera House at 819-876-2020.This one-time-only performance will begin at 7:30 p.m on

2005 RECORD Photographers In Spotlight PERRY BEATON/SPECIAL La Tribune newspaper photographers (left to right) Maxime Picard, Jessica Gameau, Claude Poulin, Jocelyn Riendeau and Vincent Cotnoir will be in the spotlight until the end of May.Thirty of their photographs are currently on display at Sherbrooke’s Antiquarius cafe'.Artist from ex-Yugoslavia has first local exhibit By Vanessa Lee Record Correspondent Marko Kovacina recently jumped at the opportunity to show a very special collection of his works in Sherbrooke.“I wanted to show paintings that told a story about my departure from my native country of Yugoslavia, to Canada, the country that adopted me,” said Kovacina, who is currently living in the Ottawa region.Among the 30 or so paintings that will be displayed this weekend is one entitled My Friends, which he said could have easily been named The Fishermen.A passionate fisherman himself, Kovacina was inspired by images of the sea, whether it be calm or agitated, as well as an old fishing boat abandoned close to the shoreline.Dubrovnik also shares a similar theme.“It’s where I spent many vacations,” said Kovacina, who has been painting for 30 years.“It’s where I found refuge from the daily grind, and an oasis of inspiration.” Among his landscapes, Au Fond Du Vallon is one of his most recent works.“Upon my arrival to Canada, I began observing all the colours in my surroundings, and I discovered another palette of greens, yellows, blues and reds.I was fascinated by the beauty, the richness, and the intensity of the colours of autumn, and the harmony of winter landscapes,” said Kovacina.Since then, his art has captured forests that are vibrant red and golden yellow, snowflakes floating in the air, snowcrystals reflecting in the light, and sugar shacks held in the heart of deep and removed woods.When it comes to dead nature, one piece he mentioned is Les Grenades (The pomegranites).“It represents the time in my childhood when grenades were growing freely, and in abundance.The picture evokes the warmth of a climate that is calm and serene, and the nostalgia of a past memory that is not forgotten.” Kovacina, who is an electrical engineer by trade, said art has always been a hobby that has inspired him to no end.“I have taken advantage of every minute I have to dedicate to my paintings,” said Kovacina.“My style has gradually crystalized.Those who know my work recognize my unique techniques and subject matter that is personal to me.” Proceeds from the show will go to Vuk Karadzic, a Serbian folk group in Sherbrooke.The Marko Kovacina exhibit takes place Saturday from 11 a.m.to 8 p.m.and Sunday from 11 a.m.to 5 p.m.at 162 Wellington South in Sherbrooke.Admission is free.Trésors d’ici open for business in Knowlton A central place was needed to expose these special crafts to the public’ — owner By Wendy Denman Record Correspondent Seeing there was a need to promote and expose the work of local artisans full time, Gillian Tenneson opened Trésors d’ici last December in Knowlton.“This is the perfect place for artists and artisans.The countryside inspires us, the atmosphere nurtures us, the way of life offers the necessary calm and serenity to create,” she explained.“But I discovered that apart from shortlived art tours and craft sales, most studios were off the beaten path and a central place was needed to expose these special crafts to the public.So I opened the boutique.” Tenneson returned to Quebec last fall after years working in advertising and related fields in Toronto.“I just got tired of Toronto.I grew up in Montreal and we always came to the Townships for holidays.I needed a change, I needed a rest,” Tenneson added.“I had friends in Knowlton so I decided to settle here.I have owned businesses before, but never a boutique.I always wanted to run a craft boutique, but the opportunity never presented itself.Space opened last December where ReMax use to be and 1 decided to jump at it.” Among the many items on display and for sale are some of Tenneson’s own crafts — satin pillows, beaded jewelry and découpage plant pots.“I have a great variety in the store — wood items, pottery, hand painted cushions, a painting on slate, embroidered tea towels, needlepoint, handmade lamp shades.At the moment I have a wonderful quilt in the tulip pattern — every stitch by hand,” said Tenneson.Most of the items are on consignment and most are made locally, although Tenneson does buy from outside the region.“I have gotten to know the artisans mostly through networking and visiting various studios.My prices vary, but it's mainly medium to higher priced,” she explained.“Artisans create because they want to not for the money, that’s the fact.In many cases it takes hours and hours, in the case of the quilt months to create, you will never get the true time value.It's unfortunate but true.” Like many merchants in the region, she has found the last few months difficult.“It’s a little scary out there.I keep the boutique open seven days a week — I have to, to draw in what customers there are,” she said.Vestiges of her background still in play, Tenneson and two other Knowlton merchants have put together a Shop the Village Brochure that is just being printed and is expected to be available by Victoria Day weekend, the first big promotion of the season.The new brochure will give visitors a chance to see what is available.“Most of the town merchants wanted to be part of it, so the brochure is pretty inclusive,” Tenneson concluded.Brief Seafarers A recent NFB documentary film entitled Turbulent Waters about the daily lives at sea of seafarers working on merchant ships using Flags of Convenience (flags of countries with the lowest labor standards) will be presented at Stanbridge-Station’s La Maison du Livre on Tuesday, May 24, at 7 p.m.Following the film, Rev.Brain Evans, who for many years served as chaplain with the Canadian Seafarers, will lead an informal discussion on the ethical issues raised in the film.Admission is free.For more information, call 450-248-3388. iTHEi RECORD May 13 - May 19, 2005 page 5 TALK ^— ¦.ivfv **,**'*'* „* *«%***" - .— — m 1

On May 28 CHARLES CATCHPAUGH Harmonie de VEstrie has evolved into the region’s seniors’ band, and faithful to their hobby, these enthusiastic musicians meet each Thursday evening to rehearse.Seen here at the start of May, the band met to prepare for its annual spring concert, which will be held at St.Patrick’s Church in Magog, on May 28 (7:30 p.m.).With band members from Sherbrooke, Magog and Knowlton, this year the group will mark its 25th anniversary.Currently the band is directed by Bob Smith of Knowlton and Guy Poisson of Magog.Lorne: Cont’d from Page 1 Elliot, a Canadian broadcaster, comedian and playwright is well known for his one-man act of crazy skits and down-home pieces, accompanying himself on his guitar to such ditties as ‘Morris the Moose’, ‘Shovelling Snow’ and ‘The Great Mosquito Hunt.’ His boyish grin and hallmark long, frizzy electrocuted hair belie a wealth of creative talent.Though a Quebecer, living on the family farm near Hudson, Elliott is probably better known outside the province thanks to his frequent tours and radio shows.“We are performing Lome’s play Tourist Trap (Aug.24-Sept.4) as our third show of the season,” explained Mahtani.“This is the Quebec premiere.It’s very funny, a real tour de farce.The main character is trying to rent his old cabin to tourists, with lots of tourist jokes — very appropriate for a summer season!” Townships Stage took over the professional season at The Piggery last year and continues to do it on a year-to-year basis.Mahtani sees his commitment to the company as a long term investment.“I want to make at least a 10-year commitment.It takes three to five years for a new company to get into stride and then you want to enjoy it!” he said.“I really believe in what we are doing here.We are working with la crème de la crème of Montreal actors, we have wonderful support.I really believe we are creating a mini Stratford right here in North Hatley.” Mahtani added that everyone involved with Townships Stage learned a lot in 2004.“I am very happy with our upcoming season, I think it’s better than last year, and we were happy with our first season.But we want to keep improving,” he explained.“We are presenting three comedies and they're all very good.We found out that comedy is what the summer audiences really want — that’s the purpose of Townships Stage, to give audiences at The Piggery the plays they want to see.” The 2005 summer season begins on June 22 with the musical I Love You, You’re perfect, Now Change.“It’s a phenomenon.The musical has been running in New York City for eight years.It’s hilarious,” Mahtani said.“This is very safe theatre.It’s our biggest play of the season and we’re presenting it first to start off with something really, really great.Due to our success last year with Norm Foster’s golfing comedy The Foursome, we’re bringing another of his plays to the stage this year — The Love List (July 27-Aug.14).This hysterically funny comedy warns you to be careful what you wish for.” Last year, one of the biggest challenges for Townships Stage was to build a professional theatre company without government support, relying on individuals to help launch its season.With the help of some firm believers and an enthusiastic audience, over 4,500 people attended the plays.Tickets for the fundraiser on Saturday, May 21 are $30.“This evening will be accented by a lovely reception, complete with wine and hors d’oeuvres.The reception will include an opportunity to wine and dine with Lorne Elliott and a silent auction with items for every taste and budget,” he concluded.Tickets for the Lorne Elliott can be RESERVED BY CALLING 819-565-4957 OR TOLL FREE 1-866-565-4957.Revenge of the Sith pulls viewers to the dark side By Katherine Monk Movie Review If you rearrange the letters in Sith, you get a mighty good idea of what’s steaming down the pipe in this latest, and mercifully last, instalment in the once mighty Star Wars franchise.Like the previous two bloated Star Wars reels overladen with special effects, digital images and some of the worst dialogue ever written, Revenge of the Sith is an anemic script pumped up on so many cinematic steroids, it's lost all sense of dramatic finesse.One minute, we see our one-time hero Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) show tender love and vulnerability to his wife, Padme Amidala (Natalie Portman).The next, he’s swinging his light sabre through children, or as they’re known in Jedispeak ‘Younglings.’ It’s quite the transformation, and Anakin’s famous metamorphosis from light to dark is the pulsing thematic core of the entire epic, not to mention the very essence of this particular episode.We all know Anakin will emerge as Darth Vader in this chapter, the only thing we don’t know is why.Why would this brave and righteous Jedi knight suddenly lose patience with his Jedi masters?Why would he betray everything he became in order to serve a morally bankrupt leader?Why use his powers for evil instead of good when he’s got a beautiful, pregnant wife who loves him?The script attempts to give an answer that we can buy, but from the moment this addled ride begins with the familiar trumpet blast and the receding, overwritten precis, it struggles with motivation.The flaw shows up early because Anakin betrays character in the opening few scenes as he kills off Count Dooku (Christopher Lee) in order to save Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid).Though any audience member can see Palpatine bears a creepy resemblance to the holographic Sith lord who pops up throughout the franchise, these things are hard for Anakin to see — despite his special blood and ‘chosen one’ status.He kills Dooku on the spot at Palpa-tine's urging.Had he enjoyed this ritual execution carried out in the heat of bat- tle, we might have bought his further seduction to the dark side and the movie could have suckered us into the painful, but unstoppable, downward spiral of Anakin Skywalker’s destiny.The whole movie hinges on Anakin and his mental state, but Lucas — who consistently finds more enjoyment in creating manly battle sequences with glowing light sabres — fails to find the discipline to keep Anakin at the fractured centre of his frame.Every five minutes, there’s a new distraction featuring computer-generated creatures and characters from the other films.There’s even a whole subplot with Wookies and Yoda, but to be completely honest, I had no idea what the purpose of that plot was — other than showing us Chewy in his pre-Solo days.Clearly, for people who have not seen the other movies, watching Revenge of the Sith will be a fruitless exercise.Without knowledge of the backstory, the movie makes no sense.Those familiar and fanatic about the franchise may have an entirely different reaction, because so much of Revenge of the Sith feels like it was made for idiots as a result of bad dialogue, oversimplified explanations and that critical lack of directorial finesse.Stranger still, the scenes don't always match up emotionally.Some don't even look like Lucas was calling the shots, with two completely different directing styles emerging in the action scenes and the dramatic moments.Apparently, Lucas had help from Steven Spielberg in the storyboarding process, and the Spielberg touch is palpable in the use of extreme close-ups and manipulated poignancy.These ‘Spielbergian’ moments are actually some of the strongest moments in the movie, even if they don’t match the tone of the surrounding context, because we’re actually getting the story — not a seizure.Though the dialogue is terrible, the acting stiff, the action sequences contrived and the delicate emotional tone manhandled into mush, this is still the strongest of the three prequels.—CanWest News Service iTHEi RECORD May 13 - May 19, 2005 page 7 S' Best Selling Singles 1.When You Tell Me., American Idol (1) 2.Sometimes You Can’t Make It O, U2 (2) 3.Don’t Cha, Pussy Cat

The title track conjures a helicopter attack on L.A., where they attack Staples, Blockbuster and Office Depot and, my god, “They’re strafing Ralph’s/ Attention shoppers/ Get out of the store/ Here come the choppers!” Wainwright assembles a crack band that includes jazz guitarist Bill Frisell, guitarist and pedal steel player Greg Leisz, bassist David Piltch and drummer Jim Keltner.—Can West News SWEATSHOP UNION United We Fall (Ba ttle Axe/EMI) On its third full-length, the seven-member Vancouver collective Sweatshop Union combines boombox playability with individuality.Rhyme topics include intoxicant excess, societal injustice and motivational crises.Beats dip into rock and jazz while maintaining bounce.This is a plenty-solid album, fusing hooks and thoughtful lyrics, without bandwagon-hopping.—Can West News WEEZER Make Believe (Geffen) The ‘Beverly Hills’ single released prior to the album was cause for concern.The song so misguidedly merged current radio-friendly, vapid frat boy rock schlock with a disrespect for comprehensive song structure it made Gwen Stefani’s ‘Hol-laback Girl’ sound like genius.Thankfully, the rest of the album isn’t nearly so limiting.It actually contains a couple of smartly crafted tunes that harken back to Weezer’s glorious Green album days, when big jan-gly guitars and Rivers Cuomo’s brok-endown boy vocals were dispensed with personal yet tongue-in-cheek musings about girls and drugs and the more mundane aspects of life.The album remains true to loyal Weezer fans who got their kicks from old songs like the ‘Sweater Song’ or ‘Buddy Holly’, with fuzzy guitars and ridiculous lyrics and tempo changes that add up to a lot of shiny, guitar-fuelled pop songs with Cuomo’s crazy edge.—CanWest News AIMEE MANN The Forgotten Arm (SuperEgo Records) The relationships — they’re not working out again.Mann gathers the gluttons for punishment for another album.Her eye and ear remain trained for the lonely, badly used love victim locked in a cycle of need and shame.Love as addiction remains her metaphor and theme, which all the inner contradictions of her songs try to redeem.“Loser” is a word that recurs amid the nearly too-per-fect rhymes, but Mann has a road-housey, roots sound to open up her folk essence.—CanWest News OSCAR PETERSON (DVD) Solo ‘75 (Eagle Rock Entertainment) We have a tendency to take our national treasures for granted, believing they’ll always be around, even if mortality tells us otherwise.Oscar Peterson, Montreal’s gift to the art of jazz piano, has been slowed by health problems these last few years, and that make us want to experience his music once again when he was at the top of his game, as he was when he played this solo piano concert at the 1975 Montreux jazz festival.Early in his career, Peterson was seen as a protege of the great Art Tatum, because he could play at the breakneck tempos Tatum made famous.He does that a few times here, most notably on ‘Indiana.’ —CanWest News HUGH'S FALLS with David Elias Dinner & Dancing ^ every SATURDAY Richard Bergeron tenor saxophone drums Raymond Elias pfccrvaTION PLFaqf Fred Farrugia piano Dinner (7 p.m.) & evening $20 Evening only s6 (819)838-4912 14235 Route 143, Ayer’s Cliff DVD of the week By Katherine Monk Hoop Dreams: The award-winning documentary comes to special edition DVD just in time for the National Basketball Association playoffs, and it’s the perfect antidote to all that ego and airball theatrics.Years in the making, filmmakers Peter Gilbert, Steve James and Frederick Marx follow two high-profile contenders as they move from high school towards the NBA draft.Arthur Agee and William Gates are two very different kids with similar life tangents — or so it seems.Just two of thousands of hopefuls, the filmmakers follow each one through the painful, often heart-wrenching process to offer a rare glimpse into the backstory of professional sport.—Can West News Service uu wtiiiwuyj I 11 I Wkmm iTHEi page 8 May 13 -

72 per cent of 286 movies monitored between June 1, 2003, and May 31, 2004, contained tobacco — and chastises the movies that feature the most smoking.The book quotes a Dartmouth University study that says smoking in movies is responsible for half the children and teens who start; a University of California researcher concludes that 1,070 children start smoking every day as a result of smoking in the movies.It quotes a Philip Morris marketing study as saying “most of the strong, positive images for cigarettes and smoking are created by cinema and television.” Boyle, who is quoted from a 1999 magazine interview, is one of 88 celebrities who make it into the book in various forms, both as unregenerate smokers (Johnny Depp wants to start his own airline, called AirSmoke, where “smoking would be mandatory”) and reluctant users (Teri Hatcher says she hates to be asked to light up for a role.“It’s difficult to refuse, but I wish I could.”) The book also includes examples of tobacco-related anti-social behavior — Britney Spears dumping an ashtray full of cigarette butts off the balcony of her Los Angeles apartment, littering the street below — and minor tragedies: Angelina Jolie refused to appear in a scene in Tomb Raider in which she was supposed to show her naked bottom because she was out of shape due to smoking and drinking (a body double was used).Some celebrities started to smoke involuntarily.Salma Hayek smoked her first cigarette when she starred in Frida, the movie biography of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, and “I really got hooked.” (Hayek eventually quit, but she admits to a cigar habit.) John Travolta chewed tobacco for the first time in Urban Cowboy, and is quoted as saying: “I wouldn’t mind having it again once in a while.” Mekemson outlines some of the un-conventional strategies that stars use to quit.Elizabeth Hurley tried sucking on a baby pacifier, while Drew Barrymore — who began smoking when she was 9 1/2 years old — hired a therapist who used “bioenergetics” by waving his hands over her while exhaling loudly.For Mekemson, the Hackademy Awards and this book are strategies to fight smoking by deglamourizing it and showing the reality of smoking as it affects famous people whose opinions matter to young people.“I can talk until I’m blue in the face about addiction to young people, but when Ozzy Osborne talks about it, it’s a little different.” Mekemson argues there should be no tobacco in child-oriented movies and its use should be reduced in R-rated films, but he is discouraged that after 10 years of effort at educating the entertainment industry, there is no noticeable decline in tobacco use in films.It's especially frustrating to Mekemson that the governor of his state, Arnold Schwarzenegger, is a smoker: one of the quotes in Hollywood Speaks Out On Tobacco shows Schwarzenegger lighting up one of his beloved cigars right under a No Smoking sign in a hotel.—CanWest News Service KsHni v -Ttlr I RECORD TALK May 13 - May 19, 2005 page 9 Jet Li about more than violence COURTESY ROGUE PICTURES Jet Li (left) is Danny, a slave who has lived his whole life without any sort of normal human education, with the mind and personality of a young child, with only one lesson learned: how to fight.His master is Bob Hoskins.By Jamie Portman Jet Li has this dream.The former world martial arts champion turned international movie star wants to do a film which has no action - a film which is solely driven by drama and character.But he knows that the big movie studios in Hollywood and Asia will do everything possible to prevent him from fulfilling this dream.“The reality, the truth, is that whether the studios are in Asia or America, they are a business.They look at you and you’ve already proved you can do action films, so you do action films — continue continue — until one day that you prove you can do more than action.” He proves that he can do a lot more than action in his new film, Unleashed, which opens Friday.To be sure, it’s still one of the most violent movies he has ever done with a pulverizing opening sequence in which he brutally eliminates several opponents who are out to kill him.But he also sees this decidedly offbeat story as an important transitional project because it requires him to deliver a performance of genuine emotional depth — a performance which reveals a new and vulnerable Jet Li — and it was this aspect which scared off every Hollywood studio when Li, in his capacity as producer, sought financing.“When we sent it to the studios, nobody wanted to make it.So that’s why I went to Europe to make this film — to try to find a little bit of opportunity to prove I can do more than just fighting.” So he returned to France and to writer-producer Luc Besson, with whom he had worked earlier on Kiss Of The Dragon and who had come up with the unusual plot for Unleashed — a plot that in Hollywood’s eyes made the film unmarketable.And the project did come together in Europe and it eventually found a North American distributor in the risk-taking Rogue Pictures.“Unleashed pushed me beyond my limits in a number of ways," Li says.When he first discussed the film with Besson, he said he wanted to do a more serious movie which showed that violence is not the only solution to life’s problems.“Then two days later Luc gave me the idea.He say: ‘What about you play dog saved by music?’ I go: ‘Dog save by music?Okay, cool.’ 1 like it very much." Li’s highly abbreviated plot description is essentially what Unleashed is about.Set in the gritty underside of Glasgow, it features Bob Hoskins as a ruthless gangster who maintains his frightening power over rivals through his enforcer Danny, a robot-like agent of destruction played by Jet Li.Danny is one of the emotionally wounded: he has been under this vicious mobster’s control since childhood, and has been conditioned to act violently on command.He lives in a cage like a dog and wears an iron collar around his neck: when Hoskins’ “Uncle Bart” removes the collar it is a cue for Danny to attack people and if necessary kill them.Danny’s life changes when he has an accidental encounter with a kindly blind piano tuner (Morgan Freeman) and the old man’s stepdaughter (Kerry Condon), and they give him shelter and show him the transforming power of love — and music.But when Danny’s underworld keepers track him down, he finds himself once more forced to fight to save himself and those he now cares about.Director Louis Leterrier (The Transporter) says Unleashed, which is already a hit in Europe, was an important gamble in Jet Li’s career.“For the first time he acted in a register that he had never before at- tempted.He had to be vulnerable, emotional, destabilized, fragile.A real acting performance had to be added to the physical performance.He had to be believable as a lethal weapon and as a poor soul who discovers the world.” The mercurial Li has shown up for his interviews this morning looking incredibly boyish under a black baseball cap.It’s initially hard to believe that he is 42 years old, the father of four daughters ranging in ages from 17 down to 2, and that he has been a huge martial arts star for 25 years.He talks rapidly and enthusiastically, and sometimes his English lets him down as the ideas keep pouring out.It becomes clear that he had a firm grasp on what was needed of him if he was to be credible in this film and that he knows he owes a debt of gratitude to seasoned costars like Freeman and Hoskins, who gave him advice and support, as well as the “wonderful” English acting coach who worked with him for two months prior to actual shooting.Many fans thought Li had reached the summit of his career with last year’s hit, Hero.But he’s still troubled that North American filmgoers, especially the younger ones, have an almost knee-jerk reaction to his name.“They think: ‘Jet Li — oh cool! Kick ass!’” He used to be happy with that reaction but lately it’s been bothering him.“That’s the only message I give to young kids?I hope that I can give more than just that.“That’s why I wanted to make this film so that younger people see that violence is not the only solution.Look at Danny.He’s physically very strong — he can knock out 20 people in a few seconds — but he’s an animal.“He doesn’t care about others.Humans care about others — that’s the difference.Something cooler than action, cooler than martial arts, is love.” —Can West News Service 4204, boul, Bertrand-Fabi MOVI6 INFO 821-9999 iuujuj.galaxycinemas.com & SH0WT1ME5 EFFECTIVE MAY 13TH TO MAY 191» XXX L’ÉTAT OC L'UNION ( I3Y » Violence) Frt-Wed: 1200, 16:00, 19:00, 21:25 Thu: (900,2125 LE ROYAUME DES CIEUX (I3Y ?Violence) Every day: 12:25, 15:25, ia25, 21:35 LE GUIDE GALACTIQUE (6) Frt-Wed: 12:25 THE INTERPRETER (m mom mended tar yang cttldrei) Fft-Wed 15:55, 18:55, 2140 Thu: 15:55,2140 LE SURVENANT (G) Every day: 1240, 1540.I&40, 21:35 L'INTERPRÈTE (Net tar young cftddrei) FfF Wed: 1245, 1545, 1845, 21:30 Thy 1245, 1845 LA MASON DE ORE (I3Y ?Horror ?Violence) Fn-Wed 12:50, 1550, 1550, 2145 Thu: 1550, 18:50,2145 CRASH (FV)(I3Y) Every day 1245, 1545, 1845,2140 ROBOTS (FV) (6) Every day 12:30, 15:30 XXX STATE OF THE UNION ( I3Y ?Violence) Fri-Wed: 19:10,21:35 LE PACIFICATEUR (6) Every day 1240 AMITYVRL6 LA MAISON DU DIABLE (I3Y ?Horror) Fri-Wed= 1515, 1515 2140 ENCHAiNé (FV) (I3Y ?Violence) Every day 12:20, 1420, 16:20, 1905,2145 CRIS & COUPS DE PIEDS (G) Every day: 12:35, 15:35, 18:35,21:35 MA BELLEMÉRE EST UN MONSTRE (G) Every day 13:10, 16:10, 1910,21:30 Wednesday May 18th at midnight -SPEQAL SHOWING STAR WARS 3 (FV) NO PA5SES ACCEPTED Thu: 12:15, 12:30, 1530, 1545, 1843, 19:00,21:55,22:10 Wednesday, May 18th atawMgM-SPEOAL SHOWING STAR WARS 3 (OV) NO PASSES ACCEPTED Thu: 1200, 1515, 18.30,21.40 MAY TH€ FORCE BE WITH YOU!
