Anita Björk, Märta Dorff, and Ulf Palme in Miss Julie (Alf Sjöberg, 1951) Cast: Anita Björk, Ulf Palme, Märta Dorff, Lissi Alandh, Anders Henrikson, Inga Gill, Åke Fridell, Kurt-Olof Sundström, Max von Sydow, Margarethe Krook, Åke Claesson, Inger Norberg, Jan Hagerman. Screenplay: Alf Sjöberg, based on a play by August Strindberg. Cinematography: Göran Strindberg. Art direction: Bibi Lindström. Film editing: Lennart Wallén. Music: Dag Wirén.  "Opening up" a play when it's made into a movie is standard practice. Directors don't want to get stuck in one or two sets for the entire film, so they shift some of a play's scenes to different locations or have new scenes written. But nobody has done it with such imagination and finesse as Alf Sjöberg, taking August Strindberg's Miss Julie out of the kitchen in which the play confines the characters and into the other rooms of the house and onto the grounds of the estate. Sjöberg plays fast and loose not only with space but also with time, giving us scenes from the childhood of some of the characters, showing us the cruelties that warped them into the twisted adults they have become. But he also does it by letting the characters from the past appear in the same room as their equivalents in the present, giving a sense of the indivisibility of past from present. Granted, Strindberg's play, with its long reminiscent speeches, facilitates this reworking of the drama by providing the material for Sjöberg's added scenes, but there's a fluidity to Sjöberg's melding of memories into the tormented present of Julie (Anita Björk) and Jean (Ulf Palme). There are some who argue that Miss Julie is meant to be a claustrophobic play, that dramatizing too much of Julie's relationship with her mother or Jean's early lessons in not transgressing the limits of class undermines the play's psychological realism with too much action and melodrama. The answer to this, I think, is that the play remains, and continues to be performed with success -- and, incidentally, to be filmed repeatedly in ways more faithful to Strindberg's original plan. What we have with Sjöberg's film based on Strindberg's play is a second creation, rather like Verdi's Otello and Falstaff, works that can stand on their own as masterpieces without denying the virtues of the Shakespeare plays on which they're based.

CANTLON: WOLF PACK OFF-SEASON - Volume 9

BY: Gerry Cantlon, Howlings HARTFORD, CT - In spite of the fact that the prevailing news of the day centers on the precipice of a new era for the New York Rangers, as the 2019 NHL Entry Draft is about to occur in Vancouver, more news is going in professional hockey. PACK NEWS Clearly, the NHL Draft tomorrow in Vancouver (NBCSN Round 1 at 8 pm. Saturday Rounds 2-7 NHL Network 1 pm) will be important to the Wolf Pack roster for this and next year. The Rangers have nine picks second only to host Vancouver with 10 picks in the seven rounds. The Rangers had two in the first the second overall pick in which either they get Kappo Kakko or Jack Hughes they had a second one at 20th slot from Winnipeg from the Kevin Hayes deal which they dealt back to the Jets Monday night in the Jacob Trouba deal for ex-Pack Neal Pionk. Trouba, a right-handed shot like Pionk is a big sturdy two-way defenseman who will command serious playing time at age 25 is an RFA (restricted free agent). Part of the Trouba Factor is that his wife is studying to become a doctor and clearly wants to do so in the US rather than Canada so a long term deal is in the offing. The deal will be dependent on the salary cap for next year (no final figure yet) and future contracts that will expire for the Rangers, especially the slew of ELC deals they have signed the last two-three years and future ones coming after tomorrow’s draft and the unknown of a new CBA structure. GM Jeff Gorton told the media in a conference call Monday that he has a deal number in mind for Trouba which means one or two of the other four defensemen in New York making $4 million plus Kevin Shattenkirk, Marc Staal, Brady Skeij or Brenden Smith will either be traded, brought out or buried in Hartford next season. Some of the first roster shoes dropped late Thursday night with the announcement that defenseman’s Frederick Claesson of the Rangers and the Wolf Pack’s Chris Bigras’s were not given qualifying offers to make them UFA’s. Claesson, despite his role as the seventh defenseman in NY, was very good, the current roster didn’t give him a spot, Bigras was a slight surprise he played well for most of the year and was one of the last cuts at Rangers training camp plus was Libor Hajek's primary defense partner through the 25 games or so, but had his season cut short with a severe high ankle sprain. Julius Bergman, acquired from Columbus is a UFA has already signed a two year deal with the defending Swedish Hockey League champion Frolunda HC. That leaves two other defensemen, John Gilmour and assistant captain Rob O’ Gara as Group 6 UFA’s on July 1st who will be clearly getting new addresses. Goalie Dustin Tokarski is also a UFA was reassigned to Charlotte on February 28th where he never lost a game and they captured the Calder Cup title. Tokarski won’t be offered a deal and is likely to be playing in Sweden next year. To nobody’s surprise goalie Brandon Halverson was not given a qualifying offer either. Just two Wolf Pack roster players left as RFA’s are winger Vinni Lettieri and the organization’s last goalie Chris Nell their status has not been announced yet. The rest of the draft selections look like this; in the second round, the Rangers have two picks 49th from Dallas and 59th from Tampa Bay via the Mats Zuccarello and Ryan McDonagh/JT Miller trade respectively. They have as of now then one selection in each of the remaining five rounds. In the third round 68th overall, in the 4th round they go 112th from Columbus, in the 5th round 130th, the 6th round they select 161st and in the 7th and last round 205th from Columbus. CALLAHAN TO RETIRE  In some sad and late-breaking news, last night on the Tampa Bay Lightning website former Ranger and ex-Pack Ryan Callahan announced his NHL career has come to a screeching and sudden end and is being placed on their LTI (Long Term Injury) list protecting Tampa Bay on the salary cap. He has been diagnosed with a degenerative disc disease in his back that has limited him the past three NHL seasons and now forces him to leave the game he played with so much passion. He was limited to just 52 games last season with seven goals and 17 points His trade over five years ago from the Rangers after eight years on Broadway assuming the captaincy after Chris Drury’s retirement to Tampa Bay and Martin St. Louis, was highly unpopular at the time but saw him compete in one Stanley Cup Final. His NHL career spanned 757 games with 186 goals, 200 assists, and 386 points. He was originally selected by the Rangers in the 4th round in 2004 NHL Draft (124th overall). He came off a strong four-year junior career with the Guelph Storm 249 games with 130 goals and 237 points leading them in scoring his last two seasons play under former Hartford Whaler, Dave Barr. He was named as OHL Overage Player (Leo Lalonde Trophy) of the year in his fourth and last season and won an OHL championship in 2003-04. He played for two US Olympic Teams getting the silver medal in 2010 in Vancouver. He was a member of the Wolf Pack for just 71 games scoring 42 goals and adding 28 assists for 70 points. He was named to the AHL All-Rookie Team and played in the AHL All-Star Star Game. In his last Wolf Pack game on February 1, 2008, he scored one of the prettiest breakaway goals in Wolf Pack history against the then Springfield Falcons in a 6-2 romp. He left Devan Dubnyk’s goalie equipment still hanging from the ceiling of the XL Center. PLAYERS & COACHING MOVEMENT Ex-CT Whale and Ranger, Carl Hagelin signed a four year deal with Washington. Former Beast of New Haven Dallas Eakins was hired as the new head coach for Anaheim elevating him from San Diego (AHL). Former UCONN Husky (Division II era), New Haven Nighthawk and Hartford Whaler, Todd Krygier, keeps climbing another rung of the coaching ladder. After three years with Western Michigan Broncos (NCHC), three with Muskegon (USHL), and seven with Novi HS (MIPUB), he was hired by the Detroit Red Wings to be an assistant coach in Grand Rapids (AHL) starting in the fall. Columbus made Chris Clark (South Windsor) the new GM for the Cleveland Monsters plus Director of Player Development for the Blue Jackets. Clark played 175 AHL games. He won a Calder Cup with the Saint John Flames (2001) and 607 NHL games with Calgary, Washington, and Columbus.  He has been a scout and the last seven years as a development coach for Columbus and Cleveland. Cleveland also hired a very experienced new head coach in Mike Eaves 63, to guide them next season. Eaves was the head coach at Division III St. Olaf College (MIAC) the last three years after spending 14 years at his alma mater University of Wisconsin (Big 10) where he helped the Badgers to seven NCAA tournament and one national championship in 2006. He had prior AHL experience with Hershey for three years (1990-1993) and was an assistant coach for three NHL teams Calgary, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh. His other coaching stints included Division III Wisconsin-Eau Claire (WIAC), Shattuck’s St. Mary’s (MNPREP), two years with the US National Development Team (USNDTP) and a season with HIFK Helsinki (Finland--FEL). He helped coach the 2004 US WJC team to a gold medal. He played eight years in the NHL with Minnesota and Calgary and while at Wisconsin won the NCAA title in 1977 making him one of the few players to coach and play to win an NCAA title. His brother Murray was inducted into the AHL Hall of Fame last year. -Bridgeport’s John Stevens Jr. was the only New York Islander, or Bridgeport Sound Tiger not given a qualifying offer. That makes him a UFA as of July 1st. He is the son of former Whaler and NHL head coach, John Stevens, Sr. -Ex-Sound Tiger Andrew MacDonald has been placed on unconditional waivers by the Flyers with the intention of buying him out the last year of his contract. -Brett Sutter winner of the AHL Fred T. Hunt Award this year has re-signed for another season with Ontario. -The Wolf Pack’s second affiliate, the Maine Mariners (ECHL) signed five players for the upcoming season and two of them have CT ties. Terrence Wallin (Gunnery Prep) has 30 points in 41 games with the Mariners, but just one assist in 23 games in Hartford. Defenseman Derek Pratt, a former UCONN Husky captain, had a solid first pro season with 63 games and finished with a plus-eight and 16 assists and 18 points signed a one year deal. He got in his first AHL game with Utica on the last weekend of the regular season and was recalled to Hartford, but never played. -AHL to Europe list adds Brooks Macek leaves Chicago to Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg (Russia-KHL) making it 43 AHL’ers that have signed in Europe so far. -Ex-Pack captain Mat Bodie leaves Torpedo Novgorod (Russia-KHL) to Vaxjo HC (Sweden-SEL). =Former Wolf pack Brodie Dupont goes from Dornbirner EC (Austria-ECEL) to the Herning Blue Fox (Denmark-DHL) -Ex-Sound Tiger Mark Flood leaves Ilves Tampere (Finland-FEL) to play for Vienna (Austria-EBEL). -Former Quinnipiac University (ECACHL) goalie Michael Garteig fresh off an ECHL Kelly Cup championship with the Newfoundland Growler’s has signed with Tappara (Finland-FEL) for next season. -Former New Haven Nighthawk and 1980 Rangers 4th round draft pick, Kurt Kleinendorst signs to be the head coach of Nuremberg (Germany-DEL) next year.

Lucas Benedet from Division III Northland College (NCHA) signs with HC Meudon (France Division-2) and Ryker Leer from the University Alaska-Fairbanks (WCHA) signs with Visby/Roma (Sweden Division-I). The latest is Thomas Stahlhuth goes from Colby College (NESCAC) to Melbourne (Australia-AIHL). That makes 41 collegians have signed in Europe and a total of 243 have signed pro deals in North America and Europe. -Jay O’ Brien, Providence College (HE) will play at Penticton (BCHL) this year to preserve his NCAA eligibility and transferring to another school seems a strong likelihood for the Flyers draft pick. -College hockey at the University of Illinois is closer to becoming a reality and joining the Big 10, but a few issues need to get resolved before making a formal announcement. See it HERE -Zach Malik, son of ex-Whaler, Ranger, and Beast of New Haven defenseman, Marek Malik, has left North Bay (OHL) where he was traded to last year from Sudbury. He has joined HC Plzen (Pilsener) (Czech Republic-CEL) during summer offseason workouts on a tryout basis but has not yet signed a playing deal. He was drafted by Muskegon (USHL) in April along with younger brother Nick. He is draft eligible for this week’s NHL draft in Vancouver which may determine where he plays in 2019-20 in either the OHL, USHL or CEL.

10 hilarious celebrity statue fails

Why must we unlock the dreaded uncanny valley every time we create the likeness of a famous person? 

Making someone's face out of clay or bronze is not an easy feat — but that clearly hasn't stopped some artists from showing off their questionable direction to millions of people worldwide. 

SEE ALSO: FuckJerry stole celebrity photos to sell its tequila

We can't help but laugh at some of these cringe-worthy attempts to immortalize someone's legacy. Here are our picks for celebrity statue fails that will make you think "has this artist ever even seen what this person looks like before?" 

1. Cristiano Ronaldo 

"Quit looking at me with those beady ol' eyes"

When the bust of Ronaldo was unveiled at the eponymous Cristiano Ronaldo Airport in Madeira, Portugal fans were uh, not exactly thrilled. With beady little eyes and a scrunched up face, this sculpture looked like someone abused the "Pinch" tool in Photoshop. This bust will live on permanently in the terminal to haunt flight-goers.  

2. Lucille Ball

This tribute to acclaimed comedic actress Lucille Ball probably inspired many a "Don't blink!" Doctor Who joke. The bronze statue was privately commissioned in Ball's hometown of Celoron, New York and was known by the terrorized locals as "Scary Lucy." Don't worry — she's since been replaced. 

3. James Dean

Rebel Without a Cause? More like Rebel Without Any Eyes. I'm pretty sure this teen heartthrob was not making movie-goers swoon with a Michael Myers-looking face. This gorgeous bust looks down upon the Griffith Park Observatory, which was used for the shooting of Rebel. 

4. Kurt Cobain 

This statue was revealed in Aberdeen for Kurt Cobain Day and is getting a lot of criticism. -@CarlinIndie88 pic.twitter.com/OsrsPyDisO

— INDIE88 (@Indie88Toronto) February 22, 2014

Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain was pretty awkwardly honored in a tribute ceremony held in his hometown of Aberdeen, Washington in 2014. Known to the town as the "Crying Cobain" for its signature solitary tear, this sad Jesus-looking statue currently resides in the town's museum. 

5.  Steve Irwin

The Crocodile Lovers Club got together to put up a life-size statue of the late Australian conservationist and television personality Steve Irwin in his legendary pose carrying a crocodile at the Parassinikkadavu Snake Park. #Kannur pic.twitter.com/680742sxSa

— Kerala Tourism (@KeralaTourism) January 29, 2018

While we just got a beautiful Google Doodle tribute to the late, great Steve Irwin, other attempts have arguably missed the mark. Maybe it's the creepy eyes, or the shape of the face that can't muster the same joy the man brought to animal lovers everywhere. 

6. Kanye West

This one is technically part of an art series called "False Idol", created by provocative street artist Plastic Jesus. In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter in 2017, he says the piece was inspired by the way the media treats West. But how about the way he treated Yeezy's face in this one? Ouch. 

7. Michael Jackson

A post shared by Nonats Junior (@nonatsjr) on Sep 16, 2017 at 12:14pm PDT

The Santa Marta community in Brazil has a proud connection with Michael Jackson — it's where he and Spike Lee filmed his famous music video for "They Don't Care About Us." After he passed in 2009, the mayor of Rio de Janeiro immediately announced a memorial for the King of Pop. Maybe it was the quick timing, but this likeness just isn't all that likable. In fact, it's downright creepy. 

8. Elvis Presley 

Hmmmmmm.

Wearing tight leggings and pointing fingers? Definitely not the King's signature style. While we can't deny that Elvis' persona was larger-than-life, the world's largest Elvis statue maybe should've toned it down a little. This statue currently resides outside an Elvis-themed cafe in Jerusalem, although there are sadly no peanut butter and banana sandwiches on the menu. 

9. Kate Moss

A post shared by I LOBO YOU BLOG (@iloboyou) on Jun 6, 2017 at 10:30am PDT

This 18-karat gold pretzel of a Kate Moss statue was displayed in the British Museum amongst statues of Greek goddesses in 2008. The artist Mark Quinn says that Kate "very much loved it" and "thinks it lifts into her into a mythical level." We're not sure if being immortalized in the most uncomfortable-looking position ever is god-like, but good on her. 

10. David Beckham

A post shared by Hilmar Mulder (@hilmarmulder) on Feb 7, 2013 at 5:06am PST

In 2012, Beckham teamed up with H&M for a marketing campaign to promote his underwear line. Several giant silver statues of the famous football star popped up in H&M locations around the U.S., however, these statues featured Beckham's crotch at face height, conveniently leading to many interesting photo opportunities. I know that this is exactly what their marketing team wanted, but can we stop making celebrity statue bulges so prominent?  

From the terrifying, to the head-scratching, to the just downright weird, these celebrity statues will never cease to give us laugh.

Grann Nordic vid kaj i Fiskebäck
