A hell of a town... and DVD, too

By -Kehla West · Thursday, Aug. 28,2003 2:15 a.m.

The DVD release of "Chicago" is a triumph equal to the triumph of the movie. A Behind the Scenes segment includes commentary by director Rob Marshall, screenwriter Bill Condon and costume designer Colleen Atwood. The segment moves easily between shots of the actors working in pre-production and shots of the finished product (these actors worked it) and presents the movie as the result of all the pieces coming magically together.

He is quite possibly, and often labeled as, the most famous country music singer that you have never heard of. All of that seems to be on the verge of changing, however, as Green branches out onto a national scene, including a show at the Bluebird Sept. 4.

By Alyson Brodsy · Thursday, Aug. 28,2003 1:35 a.m.

MISHAWAKA, Ind. -- A tornado touched down briefly in northern Indiana, but most damage caused by fierce thunderstorms was done by straight-line winds, the National Weather Service said Wednesday. The tornado touched down Tuesday near Marian High School in Mishawaka, less than a mile from the eastern edge of South Bend. The funnel cloud ripped a path about 100 yards long by 100 yards wide, meteorologist Aaron Stevens said. There were no reports of injuries.
