\"\"<\/a>\u201cPerhaps there can be too much making of cups of tea … Did we really need<\/em> a cup of tea? I even said as much to Miss Statham and she looked at me with a hurt, almost angry look. \u2018Do we need<\/em> tea?\u2019 she echoed. \u2018But Miss Lathbury … \u2019 She sounded puzzled and distressed and I began to realize that my question had struck at something deep and fundamental. It was the kind of question that starts a landslide in the mind.\u201d Barbara Pym specialized in just such tiny landslides. Thanks to Sadie, over Christmas I read her 1952 novel Excellent Women<\/em><\/a>, about the romantic tribulations of a self-professed spinster in postwar London. You can practically taste the PG Tips. \u2014Lorin Stein<\/strong><\/p>\n

I spent most of the holidays battling a cold and so sought out purely pleasurable reading in Jeff Smith\u2019s comic fantasy epic, Bone<\/em><\/a>. I love feeling so submerged in a book that you can\u2019t possibly tear yourself away; everything else is forgotten. \u2014Nicole Rudick<\/strong><\/p>\n

I recently received this collection of Russian criminal tattoos<\/a> as a gift. Knowing how to decipher these intricately coded designs could come in handy to anyone who feels they may, at some point, end up incarcerated indefinitely in the former Soviet Union. \u2014Emma del Valle<\/strong><\/p>\n

Zola Jesus finally lets someone remix her music, and it\u2019s David Lynch, remaking<\/a> \u201cIn Your Nature.\u201d \u2014Natalie Jacoby<\/strong><\/p>\n

All the lonely winter souls should brave the cold and venture to Film Forum for the Robert Bresson retrospective<\/a>. No other director so clearly captures humanity\u2019s elegiac graces. As Jonathan Rosenbaum laments, \u201cIn spite of its importance, his work may have difficulty surviving, because most of it doesn\u2019t \u2018translate\u2019 to video.\u201d Starts today in glorious 35mm! \u2014Josh Anderson<\/strong><\/p>\n

The comments section<\/a> of the New York Times<\/em>\u2019 review of Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy<\/em><\/a> is a study in human nature (or something).\u00a0For every actual review, there\u2019s someone panning it on principle because they love the Alec Guinness version or the Le Carr\u00e9 novel and have no intention of seeing a remake (1 star); people who haven\u2019t seen it but think it looks good (5 stars); and one guy who fell asleep ten minutes in (1 star). I, for one, recommend it highly: even if you\u2019re a staunch devotee of the 1979 miniseries, you\u2019ll find a lot to love. (And\u00a0it\u2019s worth it for the Julio Iglesias rendition of \u201cLa Mer\u201d alone. Why is this not available for download anywhere?) \u2014Sadie Stein<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
