CityArts - Online Exclusives #7/#8 - It Gets Gaga

To All:

 

LOTS to cover in the space between the last issue of 2011 and next week's first issue of 2012. Armond White brings us up to speed with current movies (including the first must-see film of 2012!) while providing a comprehensive analysis of the year-that-was with his now-signature Better-Than List (Andrew Sarris should salute this innovation!). Joining Armond in scrutinizing Gaga pop culture, Ben Kessler looks deeper into the "It Gets Better" campaign--and finds proof in Nicola Roberts’ Cinderella's Eyes that pop can be better.
