Sherlock Holmes trailer: the case of the missing detective
The trailer for Guy Ritchie's take on the famous detective has bombs, bohemian whores, soft furnishings and death-defying leaps, but where is Conan Doyle's creation, asks Anna PickardIt was with unremitting joy that we received the news that Guy Ritchie was planning his own take on Sherlock Holmes. Ritchie, as we have seen from his mockney gangster epics, is of the 'if it ain't broke, why not mangle it anyway?' school of thought. But this isn't about the movie as a whole - which will be duly handled by the professionals when it finally appears some time around Christmas. No, as usual, this is a judgment on the trailer alone. So what kind of classic Sherlock Holmes action can we expect on the basis of two minutes of teasing?Well, this is not quite the vision of the man the Guinness Book of World Records had down as 'the most portrayed fictional character in film'. The Sherlock Holmes of teatimes and salmon sandwiches seems to have got his knickers in a twist or, as it appears in this tr

Classic review: Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell
[The Monitor occasionally reprints material from its archives. This review originally ran on Aug. 31, 2004.] The prospect of having to read an 800-page novel billed as 'Harry Potter for adults' was enough to make this weary book critic pine for an invisibility cloak. But for those of you who, ...

`Censoring an Iranian Love Story` by Shahriar Mandanipour
In the novel, a writer tries to tell a tale of romance in spite of, and sometimes with inspiration from, the censor. Censorship is an endlessly fascinating subject; a puzzle box, a Russian nesting doll in which the writer's truth is buried and often lost. Czeslaw Milosz's 1953 classic 'The Captive Mind' revealed the insidious and creative ways that censorship enters and inhabits the mind of the artist. Shahriar Mandanipour, an Iranian film critic and the editor of a literary journal in Iran, was not allowed to publish fiction from 1992 to 1997. He came to the United States in 2006. 'Censoring an Iranian Love Story' is his first book published in English. In this novel, a writer (also named Shahriar Mandanipour and the author's alter ego) tries to write the story of Sara and Dara, a young couple in love, and finds himself in a metaphorical burka. He is forced to change his story, characters and di
