Movie Review: A Serious Man
A Serious Man (2009)–**** It goes against conventional wisdom to even suggest that the Coen brothers could make a better film than Fargo.

Tune-Worthy: Adam Lambert’s “Time For Miracles”
American Idol runner-up and future pop superstar Adam Lambert will be featured in 2012 with the song “Time for Miracles.” I won’t begrudge him for appearing on this soundtrack. At least it’s not for a Michael Bay flick. Plus, if Adam Lambert gets to perform on Oscar night, it’s totally worth it.
