The Checklist: Oct. 29, 2007 issue

Newsweek
Oct. 29, 2007 issue

Our top picks for the week.

Rent “Breathless,” Jean-Luc Godard’s rule-breaking 1959 new-wave gangster romance, with Jean-Paul Belmondo as a petty crook channeling Bogart and Jean Seberg as an amoral, heartbreaking American in Paris. Still jazzy after all these years.

Read “How Many,” an artsy, modern pop-up book of multicolored, multishaped paper sculptures by Ron Van der Meer. It’s a book for kids, but you’ll have just as much fun with it ($24.99; robincoreybooks.com).

Drink CherryPharm. Jam-packed with antioxidants, developed with Cornell University and backed up by clinical trials, CherryPharm’s tart cherry juice is seriously good-for-you stuff that tastes seriously good. Try Natural Recovery, a new protein-rich formula that helps speed recovery after exercise ($20 for eight bottles; cherrypharm.com).

Hear Deborah Harry’s “Necessary Evil.” This isn’t some last gasp from the iconic lead singer of Blondie. Melodic pop tracks, dance-floor beats and driving rock songs showcase Harry’s voice whose vintage only adds a cooler and knowing layer to the girl with the original blond ambition ($11.97; amazon.com).

See “Georges Seurat: The Drawings” at New York City’s Museum of Modern Art. This comprehensive exhibit includes more than 135 of the French painter’s works in conté crayon and oil (from Oct. 28; moma.org).
