Girl Talk

Having ladyparts is a pretty great reason to celebrate. And luckily for those with XX chromosomes, the proper equipment can also lead to discounted eats, free bubbly, and an open bar. Under normal circumstances, the über-luxe SLS Hotel (1701 Collins Ave., Miami Beach) might be outside your carefully constructed budget…

Trippy Coral

The 2012 Borscht Film Festival gets underway with FutureHistory at SoundScape Park (400 17th St., Miami Beach), where Coral Morphologic’s psychedelic films will be projected onto the brain-meltingly large screen typically used for classy symphonic affairs. The show begins at 8 p.m. and is free. Thu., Dec. 13, 8 p.m.,…

Explore Your Saxuality

Maceo Parker and Candy Dulfer know all about saxy time, and they’re gonna show Miami all their moves in a massive public display this Friday. Get your head out of the gutter and into the Adrienne Arsht Center (1300 Biscayne Blvd., Miami) for Super Sax, because you won’t want to…

Warm Your Cold Heart

Every winter, cold-blooded Miamians go seriously loco. Just a slight drop in temperature prompts the masses to reach for their North Face puffer jackets and aesthetically appalling Uggs faster than you can say “fugly.” Still, it can get pretty chilly in the Magic City this time of year. And though…

Get Boshed

At the Bosh Film Festival, presented at the Miami Art Museum (101 W. Flagler St., Miami), viewers can see Adventures of Chris Bosh in the Multiverse, a cartoon featuring the Heat star as time-altering, inter-dimensional space royalty. The film has become even more highly anticipated than it would normally be…

A Walk/Run on the Beach

Don’t wait for the New Year to start exercising. Dust off your running shoes and sign up for Live Ultimate RUN South Beach. The race lets you jog the length of Ocean Drive without the usual flock of tourists blocking your path. The course begins and ends at the swanky…

Get Freaky

Gold-dripping vaginas. A vivid ’90s flashback. Miami Heat forward Chris Bosh as a displaced space prince. It can mean only one thing: Borscht is back. The Borscht Film Festival returns for its eighth edition this Saturday, but its main screening event at the Adrienne Arsht Center (1300 Biscayne Blvd., Miami)…

Bragging Rights

The Miami Dolphins were the greatest football team of the early ’70s, particularly 1972, when the Don Shula-led Phins became the first — and only — team to go undefeated during the regular season and win the Super Bowl. Ha! Take that, 2007-08 New England Patriots. Wait, what’s that? Karma’s…

Four Legged Stars

Borscht has set up its own celebrity-studded event this year — if you consider animals to be celebrities. O Cinema (90 NW 29th St., Miami) is hosting a petting zoo populated by four-legged friends you might recognize from the big screen, including pigs from Beasts of the Southern Wild and…

Sparkle Season

Deering Holiday Wonderland: See what 600 yards of ribbon, 900 feet of garland and thousands of handmade ornaments look like adorning historic homes. It’s all part of the showcase at the Deering Estate (16701 SW 72 Ave., Miami), open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Historic house tours are held…

Just Perfect

The Miami Heat’s season is turning into that moment in Fight Club when one member of Project Mayhem tries to insult Jared Leto’s character, Angel Face: “You are too f***ing… blond!” You can try to find something wrong with this team, but you’ll probably just come away stammering a halfhearted…

Thumb-Wrestling World Champ

Aside from the scissors for hands, everyone loved Edward Scissorhands because of his otherworldly élan. It’s the kind of spirit we normally attribute to Europeans, but in truth, it comes purely from a lifetime of using a bidet. The Miami Beach SoundScape Cinema Series continues with Edward Scissorhands, the best…
