CHICAGO THEATER & TV REVIEWS
CHICAGO – After a delay that lasted well in excess of a year, “24” returns to FOX this Sunday, Nov. 23, 2008 from 7 to 9 p.m. with a two-hour “special event” (they used to just be called “TV movies”) called “24: Redemption”.
CHICAGO – “Wow! I feel like I’m at a rock concert!” “Me too. It’s like I want to rush the stage!”
While overhearing this conversation between two young women at the recent Chicago opening of “Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story,” I realized there were no better words to sum up Drury Lane’s recent jukebox-blaring, toe-tapping homage to one of the greatest rock and rollers of all time.

Even Michael Moore thought he didn’t have a chance, for much the same reason as I indicated. From imdb.com news…
Moore Surprised To Secure ‘Sicko’ Nomination
Michael Moore is amazed his movie Sicko has received an Academy Award nomination, because he thought he’d never be invited back after slamming U.S. President George W. Bush onstage in 2003. Moore outraged many with his controversial speech, which Oscars producers cut short, when picking up the Best Documentary award for Bowling For Columbine. But the 53-year-old was pleased to hear his film about America’s health care problems had picked up a Best Documentary Academy Award nomination on Tuesday. He says, “I’m appreciative that they allowed me back in the building (Kodak Theater). If I’m fortunate enough to stand on that stage again, I will be true to myself and very gracious and grateful for the acknowledgment, but I would start by finishing the last 10 seconds of the previous speech.” And the famously unstylish filmmaker adds, “I would thank my wardrobe designer and hair stylist.”
