“Genius” (2016). Cast: Colin Firth, Jude Law, Nicole Kidman, Laura Linney, Dominic West, Guy Pearce, Vanessa Kirby. Director: Michael Grandage. Screenplay: John Logan. Book: A. Scott Berg, Max Perkins: Editor of Genius. Web site. Trailer. As all successful writers know, their works seldom reach their destined greatness without the diligent efforts of their editors, those behind-the-scenes professionals who shape these titles into polished finished products. However, editors often toil in anonymity, their contributions rarely, if ever, receiving the recognition and credit they deserve. Nevertheless, such creative collaborations are essential for truly inspired results, a process detailed in the new biopic, “Genius.” The film chronicles the career of Maxwell Perkins (Colin Firth), noted literary editor at Charles Scribner’s Sons, who brought to market the works of such authors as Ernest Hemingway (Dominic West) and F. Scott Fitzgerald (Guy Pearce) during the 1920s and ʼ30s. However, the picture primarily follows his frequently frenzied working relationship with his most gifted (and most high-maintenance) protégé, Thomas Wolfe (Jude Law), whose unconventional writing – and equally eccentric life – made him an American original, as well as a best seller. As inspired as Wolfe’s work was, though, this prolific scribe needed an editor to rein ...

Director: Morgan Neville. Web site. Trailer. Art is a powerful force. It inspires. It defines us, both individually and collectively. And it can serve as a potent means of promoting understanding, making ourselves known and stating our resolve to others, both friends and foes alike. Those are the qualities that have emerged – and blossomed – from one of music’s most inventive, uplifting creative projects of the past 15 years, the subject of the jubilant new documentary, “The Music of Strangers: Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Ensemble.” Child prodigy cellist Yo-Yo Ma made a huge splash with his abilities at a tender young age. But, for all his abilities and fame, he felt somewhat unfulfilled. Indeed, as one colleague observed, Yo-Yo was a tremendous musician who nevertheless lacked a voice, and that’s what he needed to find. As someone who had always taken a wider view of life than just his music, Yo-Yo looked for an undertaking that would somehow allow him to fuse his interests and talents. Having ...
