    Medical Mafia lawyer: “Waaa! No fair! I wanna do-over!”

    Here’s a desperate hiccup of a development in the ongoing Medical Mafia case, a scheme alleged by the federal government in which a network of Nevada doctors and lawyers colluded to rip off clients in personal injury cases.

MAYBE I blinked and missed the credits. I know Johnny Depp and Christian Bale lead the cast of Public Enemies, but the name of the director charged with telling the tale of Depression-era criminal John Dillinger and his F.B.I. foil Melvyn Purvis escaped me. Ten minutes into the film -- after a prison break that should have kicked things into high gear with gunfire, blood and adrenaline -- I just wanted to know when it would end.
DVD Reviews
In the spirit of When We Were Kings, the excellent boxing documentary about Muhammad Ali's "Rumble in the Jungle" with George Foreman, comes Thrilla in Manila, a so-so film about Ali's fierce wars with Joe Frazier. While the movie focuses on the last of their three horrific battles, it also examines their nasty bouts outside of the ring.

AN astonishingly quiet art exhibition is currently on view at the Winchester Cultural Center's gallery space. Called Drift, the show features the work of Leah Craig and Janet Greek. Both artists are UNLV alumnae, and Craig is on her way to pursuing an MFA at Tufts University in Boston this fall. In vastly different ways, both artists appear to give visual representation to certain transitory moments in time -- moments so interstitial or so peripheral to what we perceive to be relevant that the very reality of one's existence can be called into question.
