December 10 • 2015 57 A memorial to Hilberry will launch the exhibit 5 p.m.-7 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 12; the show runs through Feb. 13. (248) 541-4700; hilberrygallery.com. CHICAGO BLUES Along with the Rolling Stones, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers and the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, the Siegel- Schwall Band was instrumental in the blues revival of the 1960s. The Chicago-based bluesmen earned their chops backing icons like Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf and Willie Dixon. Check out Corky Siegel — blues harmonica master, composer, singer, pianist and more — and Jim Schwall — guitarist, singer and songwriter — and the rest of the legendary band at Ferndale's Magic Bag 8 p.m. Friday, Dec. 18. $25. (248) 544-1991; themagicbag.com. * a new film, Four Falls of Buffalo. It takes a look at the Buffalo Bills of the early '90s, when they made it to four straight Super Bowls (1990-1993), only to lose all four. Prominently featured is Marv Levy, now 90, the team's head coach. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2001. The documentary Very Semi-Serious: A Partially Thorough Portrait of New Yorker Cartoonists premieres on HBO on Monday, Dec. 14, at 9 p.m. I'm not sur- prised that the film, which Variety called "delightful," has played quite a number of Jewish film festivals. A very large percentage of the New Yorker's past and present cartoonists are/were Jewish. The central character of the film, Bob Mankoff, 71, the cartoon editor of the New Yorker since 1997, has often talked about how the "anxious" Jewish experi- ence led to humor as a coping mecha- nism. The first chapter of his 2014 memoir is subtitled: "I'm not arguing, I'm Jewish." Also prominent in the film are New Yorker chief editor David Remnick, 57, who personally reviews all car- toons, and top cartoonist Roz Chast, 61. The second season of the hit Bravo series Girlfriend's Guide to Divorce, starring Lisa Edelstein, 49, began on Tuesday, Dec. 8. Edelstein, who is in remarkable physical shape, told Today that she feels empowered, at her age, to take off her clothes for the series' many sex scenes (no actual nudi- ty). The Today show hosts then pointed out that her husband, painter Robert Russell, 42, was standing just off-stage and asked how they met (they wed in 2014; it is Edelstein's first marriage). She said they met at a Los Angeles museum, where he was talking to someone she knew. She said that she was looking for, "Somebody who has already had kids, lived near me and was willing, if we married, to live in my house, because I have a beautiful house, and wasn't wishy-washy. He came over to me — we talked. He lived near me, and he had a specific 'date idea' — and he was Jewish." * Russell and Edelstein Siegel-Schwall Band Susanne Hilberry )0634.0/4"5".1.t46/".1. 1980320 On Star's beautiful already low-priced trays 24555 W. 12 MILE ROAD +VTUXFTUPG5FMFHSBQI3PBEt4PVUIGJFME 248-352-7377 www.stardeli.net $ 5 OFF Expires 11/26/15.
