Dark Shadows Movie Review

Bringing back a 1960s TV series about a vampire sounds like a perfect job for director Tim Burton, who became a modern master of cinematic goth with movies like Batman, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and Sleepy Hollow. But even with star and frequent collaborator Johnny Depp, the film adaptation of Dark Shadows fails to live up to Burton's previous work. Sadly, it feels more like a lazy, Read more

Neurotic Roger Sterling finds truth on this week's episode of Mad Men with the help of LSD.

1966 Historical Events Mad Men

We got a taste of 1966 last week on the season premiere of Mad Men. The first episode of season five kicks off in May 1966, with Don's new and much younger wife, Megan, performing "Zou Bisou Bisou," inspired by the sexy Euro pop princesses of the 1960s yé-yé movement. Don seems suspicious of Megan's free-spirited ways, and that might be a sign of things to come, considering 1966 saw lots of Read more

Until Twiggy hit the scene in the late '60s, women with bodies like Mad Men's Joan Holloway were prized for their ample bosoms and curvaceous frames. Matthew Weiner, Mad Men creator, even told the show's actresses to stop working out so they would look more realistic to the era. But the '60s was not without its Read more
