Pi: Review

Find the common thread: the Kabbalah, the Japanese strategy game Go, the Dow Jones industrial average, the spiral of a nautilus shell, the soothing clink of a Slinky, swarming ants and a jerry-rigged supercomputer named Euclid. That's mathematician Max Cohen's (Sean Gullette) grail, and its pursuit is quite literally driving him crazy in this stylishly clever and creepy-as-hell sci-fi brain-twister from first-time director Darren Aronofsky.

Lost, Lost, Lost. Anything ... | Today's News: Our Take | 5/3/2006

Question: Lost, Lost, Lost. Anything Lost, please!

Answer: You've come to the right place, Carrie. Back by popular demand, this week's Ask Ausiello is essentially one big Lostapalooza, starring executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse. Not only is the duo answering all of our burning Season 2 questions, but they're also offering up tantalizing clues and spoilers about the final four episodes. Or, I should say, three. Conspicuously missing from the following Q&A is any discussion of tonight's explosive May-sweeps kickoff. For the dirt on that, you'll have to check out my Ausiello Report blog immediately following tonight's telecast. Trust me when I say you don't want to miss read more
DREAM GIG | Today's News: Our Take | 10/28/2005
Lost is getting a shot of indie cred. Entertainment Weekly reports that cult director Darren Aronofsky (Requiem for a Dream, Pi) has signed on to helm a May-sweeps episode of the ABC hit. "It was one of those fantastic calls out of the blue," says Lost exec producer Carlton Cuse. "His agents let us know he liked the show, and we jumped at the opportunity."
