On a Thursday evening, the athletic fields outside Lincoln Tower are filled with students. Some lazily toss around a Frisbee, while others send soccer balls flying into nylon nets.

As summer begins, a documentary about a choir of senior citizens sounds as exciting as an afternoon at the local rest home. There are no whips, superheroes or closets that lead to fantasy worlds in "Young @ Heart," there is just a message.
The story follows a choir of aged folk, most of whom are lovable enough to be your grandparents. They're not singing hymnals or polka, but rather Sonic Youth, Coldplay and James Brown, all under the direction of 55-year-old Bob Cilman, who comes off like a young whippersnapper in comparison. But the choir is hardly senile and lifeless. In fact, for many involved, it does keep them "young at heart."

For a successful underground-music act, Girl Talk (aka Gregg Gillis) doesn't write too much music. In fact, he doesn't write any. He leaves that job up to his favorite pop stars, rappers, rockers or pretty much anyone with a hot beat. You see, Pittsburgh-native Gillis is a disc jockey in the most advanced sense of the word - and he's the best at what he does. Girl Talk is a much-buzzed-about master of the mashup, meaning he takes elements of different songs (a guitar line, a beat, a vocal part) and threads them together with others - literally, hundreds of others - to make a new song entirely.

To Hollywood, summer is about churning out movies at such a pace that audiences are barely distracted from the beer distributor long enough to see the next big flick. Thankfully, "Iron Man" is worth your cold hard cash in place of a cold brew.
