Back in Shape, Injured Star Returns to Met

NY (AP) Sidelined by a back injury just before the opening, Mariusz Kwiecien returned Tuesday night to take his rightful place at the center of the Metropolitan Opera's new production of Mozart's "Don Giovanni."It may have been too much to hope that the Polish baritone's appearance would jump-start the essentially stillborn staging by Michael Grandage. But with his dashing, dangerous presence and well-focused, insinuating sound, he did provide some welcome jolts of electricity.Kwiecien (pronounced KVEE-tchen) has sung the title role to acclaim in many opera houses, but never before at the Met. The role suits him perfectly: His Errol Flynn-like good looks, dapper figure and athleticism make him uncommonly believable as the serial seducer. And as fate closes in on the Don in Act 2, the anger and cruelty behind his charming swagger become more apparent.Barely recuperated from surgery two weeks ago to repair a herniated disc, Kwiecien did make at least one concession in modifying the staging. Instead of climbing down a ladder from a balcony in the opening scene, he first appeared through a door on stage level, pursuing Donna Anna, the woman he intends as his latest conquest.But any sense of caution was soon dispelled as Kwiecien gave a boldly physical performance, fighting a duel, dashing about the stage, or dropping to one knee as the occasion demanded.None of this is to take anything away from Peter Mattei, the fine Swedish baritone who filled in for the first three performances. He, too, is an experienced Don, with a voice whose beauty is in a class by itself. But understandably, given the lack of stage rehearsal his interpretation seemed a bit bland and generic.Kwiecien, on the other hand, made a strong impact despite not sounding at his vocal best. Several times his voice cracked as if he had a frog in his throat, and the more lyrical moments like the famous duet "La ci darem la mano" ("There we will entwine our hands") lacked ideal smoothness. But the rapid-fire Champagne Aria crackled with excitement, and he grew in strength as the evening wore on.The rest of the cast was unchanged, and there was much to admire: the spontaneity of bass-baritone Luca Pisaroni as Leporello; the sweet musicality and astonishing breath control of tenor Ramon Vargas as Don Ottavio; the stylistic integrity of soprano Barbara Frittoli as Donna Elvira; and the bright, potent sound of soprano Marina Rebeka as Donna Anna, marred only by a steely top.Fabio Luisi's conducting seemed breathless at times, and there were more than a few coordination problems between the players and singers.A lot was riding on Kwiecien's performance: He had only Tuesday night to prepare for the live HD broadcast this coming Saturday afternoon. When he came out for his curtain call, he raised his arms to the audience and grinned wryly, as if to say: "Look, I made it!"That he did, and then some.Copyright 2011 Associated Press.

Rick Santorum Calls 'SNL' Sketch 'Bullying' (Video)

Mark Wilson/Getty Images Rick Santorum isn't laughing at a Saturday Night Live sketch that depicted Andy Samberg as him participating in "Yet another GOP debate" from a gay bar in San Francisco's Castro District. The former Pennsylvania senator and current GOP presidential nominee hopeful told New Hampshire radio station WGIR that the sketch counted as "bullying." "The left, unfortunately, participates in bullying more than the right does," he told the radio host. "They say that they're tolerant, and they're anything but tolerant of people who disagree with them and support traditional values." PHOTOS: Best Presidents in Movies and TV Santorum said he hadn't actually seen the sketch, saying, "I've heard about it. I haven't had a chance to see it. I've had a pretty heavy schedule to be honest with you. I've heard what it's about and I'm not surprised, let's put it that way." The candidate has been outspoken in his criticism of gay rights and has signed a pledge opposing same-sex marriage. He has also been critical of the repeal of the military's "Don't ask, don't tell" policy. Santorum also became the victim of an Internet stunt arranged by gay sex-advice columnist Dan Savage in 2003, when his last name was given a crude definition and became the top Google result when someone searched "Santorum." The candidate told the radio host, "I welcome the criticism." Saturday Night Live Politics

The Walking Dead Walking Dead-heads, prepare to have you minds blown - and to see some brains blown away!

Warner Bros., Downey team for 'Perry Mason'

Warner Bros. and Team Downey are teaming to relaunch the "Perry Mason" franchise as a feature film, with Robert Downey Jr. eyeing the title defense attorney role as a potential starring vehicle. Like the original series of books by Erle Stanley Gardner, "Perry Mason" will be set in the rough and tumble world of early 1930s Los Angeles, and feature fan favorites such as Mason's secretary, Della Street, private investigator Paul Drake, and Mason's longtime courtroom nemesis, Hamilton Burger. Team Downey principals Robert Downey Jr. and Susan Downey will produce with Robert Cort, while David Gambino, Eric Hetzel and Joe Horacek will exec produce with Susan Feiles and Chris Darling. The producers are currently looking for a writer, whose script will be based on an original story by Robert Downey Jr. and Gambino. WB exec Jon Berg will oversee the project for the studio. Cort and his Robert Cort Prods. exec Hetzel teamed with Darling and Feiles of Action Entertainment to bring the idea for the feature relaunch of "Perry Mason" to Team Downey. Estate attorney Horacek negotiated the rights deal on behalf of Paisano Prods. Gardner's 82 "Perry Mason" novels and dozens of short stories have been published in 37 languages worldwide. With book sales exceeding 425 million, Gardner, who mentored both Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett early in the careers, surpassed them both in sales, even combined. At the height of his popularity, Gardner sold an average of 26,000 "Perry Mason" books per day. A "Perry Mason" radio series began in 1937, running 3,257 episodes, and there were 34 two-hour telepics and six feature films beginning in the 1930s from Warners. But the character is perhaps best known as the protag of the popular TV show starring Raymond Burr, which ran on CBS from 1957 to 1966 and featured memorable theme music composed by Fred Steiner. The series still plays everyday in 87 languages around the world. Robert Downey Jr., who next stars in "Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows," is currently reprising his role as Iron Man in Marvel's "The Avengers." He is repped by CAA.
