Don Draper's "Inferno"

BY KENDALL RUSS

AMC

The struggle we see in Don thus far suggests that Weiner’s inclusion of the “Inferno” will operate as a crucial thematic device throughout the season, and perhaps for the rest of the series. Don’s downward spiral — just as Dante descends through the nine circles of Hell — almost seems inevitable.

Has Charli XCX given us the dark horse candidate for Song of the Summer?

BY RAY MALO

IAMSOUND Records

Each year, when Spring begins to creep in, a couple friends and I like to speculate as to what new song has a shot of becoming the Song of the Summer. Sometimes it’s a dark horse candidate, some unlikely number we boldly believe deserves it; other times it’s a no-brainer.

Ben Folds seduces the crowd at Hill

BY LENA FINKEL

Epic

I’ve never been one to obsess over Ben Folds. Sure his songs are pretty, but I don’t think I have a single one on my iPod. But that was before his concert at Hill Auditorium on Thursday. I’m not afraid to say it: Ben Folds is clearly a genius. He may have been that weird kid sitting in the back of your bio class in high school, but now he’s an effortlessly cool rock star.

'West of Memphis' a complex account of tragedy

BY BRIAN BURLAGE

Sony Classics

“West of Memphis” approaches this travesty of justice with honesty and a special focus on the state officials. Many scenes are occupied with detailed proceedings of the trial, including a few brief on-camera statements made by the prosecution and defense teams. Lorri Davis, who read about the case and eventually married Echols, enjoys a prominent feature. Harrowing images of the murder scene are shown early on to effect a bitterness in the viewer, which is ultimately solidified through the trial’s dissolution.
