23motherhood
Oct 22, 2009 20:00 EDT
Whenever a movie requires Uma Thurman to wear glasses, it's reasonable to think she'll turn into someone else. Once, in a ``Batman'' movie, she actually did. She's bespectacled again for ``Motherhood,'' and it saddens me to report that neither she nor this comedy turns into more than an argument against procreation. Thurman plays Eliza Welch, the harried sort of woman who doesn't realize that her stroller just ran you off the sidewalk. You've stood behind her at the coffee shop as the cellphone conversation she's having blasts the entire store. She's told you off for calling her ``ma'am'' or looked down her nose at you for, say, ``just'' being a roofer. I wish I were kidding when I tell you that Eliza has a blog called the Bjorn Identity (so named for the best-selling yuppie baby sling) and that she pollutes it with thoughts like, ``Must a woman's soul die because she's a mommy?'' But I'm not. Most of the movie involves the day Eliza spends planning for her daughter's sixth birthday pa

PORTLAND, Maine - More than a century separates the photographs of Julia Margaret Cameron from those of Joyce Tenneson. Yet their affinity is plain. Both present feminine beauty as something ethereal and spiritual. Both traffic in allegory and an air of otherworldliness. Both try, in a sense, to visualize the eternal. There the similarity ends. Cameron's work is quintessentially Victorian. Indeed, her images not only reflect the sensibility of her era, they helped shape it. Tenneson's images, which she took between 1986 and 2004, seem as contemporary - and substantial - as clouds. In fact, many of the 27 large-format photographs in ``Joyce Tenneson: Polaroid Portraits,'' which runs at the Portland Museum of Art through Oct. 4, look as though they could have been taken in clouds. They're that gauzy and pallid. The cumulative effect is of cumulus. The Victorian sensibility evident in `` `For My Best Beloved Sister Mia': An Album of Photographs by Julia Margaret Cameron,'' which runs at P
