Hitting the slopes

Teton Gravity Research, or TGR, brings two showings of the extreme-snowboard film “The Tangerine Dream” to The Met, at 6 and 8 p.m. on Sunday. Tickets to the unrated film (equivalent to PG for scenes of drinking) are $12 and $7 for children younger than 12. 325-SEAT.

It should be a good night

Here’s an early Oscar prediction: “Good Night, and Good Luck” will be nominated for:

Best Picture: Grant Heslov, etc.

Best Director: George Clooney.

Best Actor: David Strathairn.

Best Original Screenplay: Heslov and Clooney.

Best Cinematography: Robert Elswit.

The film may earn more. It may earn less. It deserves them all. And more.
