BAKER CITY — Peter Antoniou, fresh off several months of shows in Las Vegas, returns to Baker City this month to read your mind.

Would you live differently if you knew your age and cause of death? That is the premise of Liane Moriarty's new novel, "Here One Moment."I've enjoyed Moriarty's novels over the years.

1 month ago | goeasternoregon.com | Mark Meszoros

What would Jon Gunn do for an encore? The filmmaker’s latest work, “The Unbreakable Boy,” arrives in theaters almost a year to the day after his previous directorial effort, the highly emotionally satisfying “Ordinary Angels.”Both movies were produced by Kingdom Story Company, a Lionsgate partner specializing in Christian-based projects, and both are based on a true story. Like “Ordinary Angels,” “The Unbreakable Boy” has its share of both heartwarming and tough moments.

I don’t know about you, but I’m very much in the mood these days for a sweet-natured, funny and more than a little whackadoo movie about a small and very polite bear named Paddington who wears a blue overcoat and carries an umbrella.
