There’s something beautiful about looking at something old in a new way. Which is why watching a clunky, rusty, outdated machine clicking away to an original modern score in high-def chiaroscuro is about the furthest thing from turning on a boring historical documentary. Linotype: The Film introduces viewers to a…

“Mmm, tasty chemicals and hormones. Just like mom used to make.” Never heard anyone say those words before? Neither have we. So shouldn’t we all be eating food tended by our own two hands as opposed to industrially processed crap? The Farm at Verde Gardens (12690 SW 280th St., Homestead),…

Earlier this summer, a handful of generous motorists pulled over to pick up a mustachioed hitchhiker on the side of the freeway, only to discover he was, in fact, iconically weird director John Waters. Over eight days, the brain behind kitschy cult classics such as Hairspray and Pink Flamingos thumbed…

Last summer, we got to see fútbol powerhouse Barcelona take on Chivas, and the result was 71,080 fans showing up to watch the Mexican underdogs take down mighty Barca. SunLife Stadium (2269 Dan Marino Blvd., Miami Gardens) was a gargantuan soccer party complete with trumpets, fireworks, and fans yelling expletives…

We keep telling ourselves that the Miami Marlins are a second-half team and hoping the Fish will shake their nine-year slump and make a playoff run. After all, we deserve it. Taxpayers spent far too much money building a new ballpark for a team that teeter-totters around .500. Sure, it’s…

In just two feature films, writer/director Joachim Trier has proven to be unparalleled in exposing the foibles and delusions of all the sad young literary men. The 20-something character played by Anders Danielsen Lie in Reprise (2006) finds immediate cult success with his first novel, only to suffer a breakdown…

It’s time for summer vacation, but you can’t even afford a pup tent (not that you’d even want to go camping in the Florida wilderness, with mosquitoes the size of condors). Still, the lure of sitting dockside with a frozen drink in your hand while Bob Marley tunes play in…

William Shakespeare’s Hamlet has seen many incarnations over the centuries: Hamlet in New York. Hamlet in Havana. Hamlet in modern times. Hamlet in the Old West. Even animated Hamlet. But you’ve never seen the Bard’s tale of crazy people doing crazy things in the hands of the Mad Cat Theatre…

If you’re sick of weaving in and out of idling traffic during Wynwood’s Second Saturday Art Walk — particularly after a couple cocktails — you’re not alone.
