Ozarks At Large

Latest Edition of Ozarks at Large

Sunday, April 20, 2014
Ahead on this edition of Weekend Ozarks, a conversation with author Joyce Carol Oates prior to her lecture in Fayetteville. Plus, a bit of tinkering before the Amazeum opens to children and the community next fall.
For the latest installment in our series about locally-made things, we travel to Avoca to meet one of the two brothers responsible for Two Brothers Canoe, Inc.
Auditions for the SoNA chorale singers, a panel discussion on racial diversity, the annual Mule Jump at Pea Ridge and more in this morning's notes.
We step inside Son's Chapel near Goshen to find that the women's group that was started over 90 years ago to raise funds for construction, is still hard at work maintaining the building.
Here are our clips devoted to quiet, whispering and all manners of silence for our Sunday montage: 1. Bjork sings It's Oh So Quiet. 2. Marlon Brando, as Superman's father, explains the Fortress of Solitude in Superman II. 3. The Five Satins celebrate in The Still of the Night. 4. The members of The Breakfast Club spend time in a library. 5. Another library: George Peppard is shushed at the New York City Library just before he tells Audrey Hepburn he loves her in Breakfast at Tiffany's. 6. Miles Davis' In a Silent Way. 7. King Arthur tells Dennis the Constitutional Peasant to be quiet in Monty Python and the Search for the Holy Grail. 8. The Ink Spots sign about The Whispering Grass. 9. John Wayne arrives in Ireland in the opening of The Quiet Man. 10. Simon and Garfunkel, of course. Apologies to: John Cage, Bertolt Brecht and every version of Silent Night. Maybe next time.
Becca Martin Brown from Northwest Arkansas Newspapers tells us about one of her favorite restaurants in Goshen.
