If there’s anything that’s been consistent about this site in its near-20 years of beaming (babbling?) hypertext to servers and back to you, it’s that I’m very bossy when I get into something new, especially cocktails. When I fell in love with Porch Swings, I wanted you to as well. Ditto for Blood Orange Margaritas (but only when in season), a Perfect Manhattan era that spanned over a decade, Boulevardier that has been woven into almost every year since, and a Slushy Paper Plane phase last year. This past winter and spring still, it’s been Sidecars, 1920s-era cocktails with about as many conflicting stories as my kids regale us with when they didn’t do their homework. Read more »

REVIEW: 'Supergirl'
Movie genres run out of steam. It has ever been thus. So many Westerns were made in the first half-century of the American cinema that they still outnumber any other genre, but they're a footnote now. Gangster movies were all the rage in the 1930s, films noir in the late 1940s, musicals from the Depression to the swinging '60s, and teen comedies in the 1980s and '90s. They seem to settle in forever and then they fade. So too with the dominant genre of the 21st century, the superhero picture.The post REVIEW: 'Supergirl' appeared first on .
