By Ted McDonough
POSTED // Sep 6,2007 - In her final year teaching high school, Erin Jensen had her 11th-grade American literature students read The Crucible, a classic Arthur Miller play that lambastes Cold War red-baiting by comparing it with the Salem Witch Trials of 1692. She didn’t...

By Jamie Gadette

By Brian Staker
POSTED // Sep 6,2007 - The name of one of Salt Lake’s newest art galleries says it all. The creators of the works embellishing the walls at the Unknown Gallery aren’t members of the glitterati, such as it is, of our town’s comparatively modest art scene. If...

A Goldener Opportunity

Jean Louis Montecot’s Franco-Austrian cuisine lights up Deer Valley.

POSTED // Sep 6,2007 - When Goldener Hirsch Inn’s restaurant won last year’s Best Park City/Deer Valley Restaurant award in Salt Lake Magazine, it caused me to do a bit of a double-clutch. That’s because there must be more fine-dining restaurants in Park City...

Meanwhile, Back at the Raunch

Wedding Crashers recalls a golden era of remorseless crude comedy'at least for a while.

By Scott Renshaw
POSTED // Sep 6,2007 - Kids these days, if they were so inclined, could be pretty smug about the superiority of their pop culture over that of the generation that came before. Frogger vs. Grand Theft Auto, “cassingles” vs. iPod, The Bionic Woman vs. Lost'and don’t...

Daniel Auteuil again loses something in translation in Après Vous.

By Greg Beacham
POSTED // Sep 6,2007 - Daniel Auteuil is probably France’s pre-eminent actor, but he’s never made a splash on this side of the ocean. And he probably never will; his talents are distinctly French, from his decidedly unintimidating appearance to his fascinating face,...

Cult Leader
