Splice Him to the Greek (Weekly Links)

Guess which twin has the mutated gene? Delphine Chaneac, Sarah Polley: Splice

Reviews I wrote for the Herald this week.

Get Him to the Greek. “Ham-handed.”

Splice. “A couple of mildly kicky twists.”

The Living Wake. “Credit for sheer chutzpah.”

And a batch of capsules for the Seattle International Film Festival’s upcoming week.

On KUOW’s “Weekday,” I talk to Steve Scher about the monster-movie aspects of the BP oil spill, and other things: here. The “Cultural Moment” bit starts around 14 minutes in.

And the Magic Lantern program at the Frye Art Museum gets a name-check in the Travel Channel’s anointing the Frye as one of the Top Ten free museums in the U.S.: here.
