The undisputed king of electric
blues is scheduled to play to a
packed audience Friday night at
Centennial Hall.

BB King is one of the most well-
known living blues musicians in
the world, and certainly the most
famous person to ever come out
of the tiny town of Itta Bena,
Miss.

The 2000 census pegged Itta
Bena's population at about 4,000
residents living within a 1.5
square mile area.

Yet the town still managed to
make it into the 2000 Coen
brothers film, "O Brother, Where
Art Thou?"

In the movie, a notorious
gangster terrorizing the the
Deep South stops George
Clooney's character Everett and
his crew and asks them how to
get to Itta Bena.

Name the gangster and the
actor who played him for a
chance to win a set of three
cookbooks.

'Across the Universe' screening at the Fox Theatre on Friday night

Tucson, Arizona | Published: 08.21.2008
Julie Taymor's wildly imaginative 2007 film, "Across the Universe," works wonders if you focus on the music and don't get hung up on the inane attempt at a storyline.
Taymor, the dance/theater genius who staged Disney's "The Lion King" on Broadway, creates a visual trip and a half that's built around fresh, invigorating renditions of Beatles songs. The Vietnam War-era story, such as it is, centers on the romance between a young upper-class American (Evan Rachel Wood) and a poor artist from Liverpool (Jim Sturgess).
Although most of the musical performances are incredible (more than 30 Beatles songs are heard), the overall effect is not on the same level as Cirque du Soleil's "Love," the Fab Four-inspired masterpiece now running in Las Vegas.
"Across the Universe" screens at 7:30 p.m. Friday at the Fox Tucson Theatre, Downtown.
