Cafe Tacuba's Quique Rangel has heard the comparisons before. His Mexico City quartet has been called the rock en espanol answer to Radiohead. That's critical shorthand for "experimental," "adventurous," "cool."

As veteran indie artists with devoted followings, Michelle Shocked and Over the Rhine share an uncommon distinction. Rooted in Christian faith -- as opposed to inhabiting the mawkish swamp of Christian rock -- they sing about the spirit (and the flesh, for that matter) with intelligence, passion and integrity. To call both critics' darlings would be putting it mildly.

Singer-pianist Judy Roberts has been performing in Chicago for so many decades that it may seem hard to believe she's moving. Yet as she announced in April, she and her husband -- the accomplished reedist-composer Greg Fishman -- are heading to Phoenix, in a few days.

But can the successful British comedian make us laugh at the gay Austrian fashionista? Universal hopes so.
On Dec. 21, in an interview with the UK's Daily Telegraph, actor Sacha Baron Cohen announced the retirement of his two most popular alter egos -- hip-hop wannabe Ali G and Kazakh journalist Borat. Not everyone was heartbroken by the news. To begin with, there's the multitude of people pranked by his feature film, 2006's "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan"; Baron Cohen has jokingly estimated the number of resulting lawsuits as "about 3,000."

Plagued by weak characters and plot, 'One Missed Call' doesn't ring any bells.
American remakes of Japanese horror-thrillers have been hit-or-miss. For every box-office smash such as "The Ring" ($129 million in 2002), there's an equally unsuccessful "Pulse" ($20 million in 2006). "One Missed Call" re-engineers 2003's "Chakushin Ari" and follows the Far Eastern genre's tradition of death delivered through evolving technology (videocassettes, the Internet and cellphones). Try as it may to capture the original's success in Japan, "One Missed Call" ends up a remake better left unmade.

Eric Valette talks about why he remade the Japanese horror film.
Japanese auteur Takashi Miike has directed more than 70 films, but "One Missed Call" may be his most commercial. Largely free from the controversial sexual perversions and extreme gore that are the hallmarks of much of his work, the supernatural thriller follows a group of friends as they receive ominous telephone messages foretelling their deaths. French director Eric Valette ("Maléfique"), who remade the film for Warner Bros., explains why he chose to answer the call.

Four New York professionals juggle professional and personal issues while finding time for each other. The TV series feels like a grown up 'Sex and the City.'
Say what you will about the "Enjoli" campiness of some of the ads, but I defy anyone to speak slightingly about the cast of "Cashmere Mafia," a female foursome so formidable that two of them are Australian. Not the characters, which are straight-up American power babes, but the women who play them prove once again that limited opportunities for female leads in film are a tremendous boon for television.

Carson Kressley, the clothing expert from "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy," is now, ironically, the host of a series titled "How to Look Good Naked." Premiering tonight on Lifetime, it's a domestic version of a British hit -- as was the network's previous foray into makeover, "How Clean Is Your House?" -- and comes with the advantage of a road-tested format. This is a show that works.

Greatness courses through Paul Thomas Anderson's adaptation, Daniel Day-Lewis' performance
As surely as our country's multiple personalities owe a great deal to both religious fervor and the oil industry, "There Will Be Blood" reminds us that the greatest screen performances don't settle for capturing one trait, a dominant emotion or an easy way in. The very best of them are symphonies of paradox, forcing us to reckon with the ramifications.

Study of Nazi art heists suffers from soft focus
Almost five years ago, as the U.S.-led occupational forces in Iraq watched looters ransack the national museum in Baghdad, the world in turn witnessed an all-too-cyclical tragedy. Under very different circumstances affecting millions of another generation, in many different countries, we had seen such spoils of war before.

The pop world has focused for so long on the remarkably sensual energy and excitement of Ike & Tina Turner's old live show that it is often easy to forget the duo also made some dynamic records. But even if you have wanted to go back and check up on the pair's records from the 1960s and 1970s, it was difficult to know which "best of" collection to buy because the Turners recorded for so many labels.
