MARDI GRAS ON KAUAI DENNIS FUJIMOTO TGIFR!DAY re-registration is not only saving money but allows more time to enjoy the Mardi Gras festivities, said Ally Kirk of the Kauai Animal Welfare Society. Tickets for the annual Mardi Gras-Cirque Pour Les Animaux are available at the KAWS website, www.kaws4paws.org. “This year’s annual fundraiser event promises over-the-top Mardi Gras glitz and glamor in true New Orleans style, with a Kauai twist,” Kirk said. “This Mardi Gras celebration will be a full-of-fun, full-of-surprises evening to benefit the dogs and cats of the KAWS Krewe.” The Mardi Gras-Cirque Pour Les Animaux will be held Saturday, Feb. 23, from 5:30 to 9 p.m. at the Courtyard by Marriott in the Hale O Ho‘olaule‘a tent in Waipouli. A buffet dinner catered by Fresh from the Garden awaits, along with entertainment from Performers from Soul Fire Productions, live bands, including Gypsy Spice, and silent and live auctions. Delicious desserts follow from Dizzy Lizzy and Fresh from the Garden, including the special Mardi Gras “King Cake” that could get a male, or female, crowned “King for the Night.”

Animal welfare group’s fundraiser has a New Orleans theme
“To add to the excitement of the evening, we are encouraging people to dress up in their best, overthe-top Mardi Gras costume,” Kirk said. “Anything goes, but remember, this event is kid-friendly. There will be a fun prize awarded for the most fabulous costume.” No costume? Not a problem, as costuming is not mandatory. About KAWS: “Our commitment is to find homes for all animals, placing special attention to the dogs at KHS (Kauai Humane Society) who are at risk, i.e. been at the shelter over three months and/or who are starting to show signs of kennel stress. While finding homes for the stray and surrendered pets is integral to our mission, it is equally important to address the causes for these over populations: too many unspayed/ unneutered dogs and cats. KAWS aims to provide affordable and accessible spay and neutering programs as well as offering educational programs to promote proper care and treatment of animals. We do not have a facility, though it is our vision to open a sanctuary for both dogs and cats in the future.” ••• Dennis Fujimoto, staff writer and photographer, can be Photo courtesy Kauai Animal Welfare Society reached at 245-0453 or dfujimo- Judy Blue Eyes, an adoptable Kauai Animal Welfare Society critter, tries out some Mardi Gras costuming ahead of to@thegardenisland.com. the Cirque Pour Les Animaux Feb. 23 at the Courtyard by Marriott at Coconut Beach, Waipouli.

from the powers that be above. That such a framework is a metaphor for other institutions — the movie industry, most obviously — isn’t hard to miss. Both iPhones and Netflix have a pivotal role in Burke’s brewing rebellion. Burke’s hustle is Soderbergh’s. “High Flying Bird” is, itself, a crossover dribble to blow past the system. “I’m not out. I’m just outside,” says Burke. “But I’m about to pull up a chair.” A handful of insiders contribute wittingly or unwittingly to his plan, among them Burke’s former protege Sam (Zazie Beetz) and Emera Umber (Jeryl Prescott), the mother of Scott’s rival, Jamero Umber (Justin Hurtt-Dunkley). Burke subtly manipulates him into an impromptu one-on-one match that immediately goes viral. For a movie full of characters who

sincerely espouse the beauty of basketball, “High Flying Bird” could use more of the sport. I wish the filmmaking more obviously shared its characters’ affection for the game, not just their politics. There’s a trio of real NBA-ers (Reggie Jackson, Donovan Mitchell, Karl-Anthony Towns) who appear now and again in black-andwhite interviews to talk about the head-spinning leap from college to the pros — “a monster I don’t think anyone can prepare for,” says Jackson. They give the film an added flavor of reality but also interrupt the movie’s flow once it gets humming. “High Flying Bird” shares much with Soderbergh’s previous capitalism critiques and insurgent heists (“The Girlfriend Experience,”‘’Ocean’s Eleven”). And it follows the director’s own failed revolt: a noble experiment to self-finance and distribute wide-release movies , the first being “Logan Lucky.” Yet the spirit of that endeavor

persists in “High Flying Bird,” a movie that feels held aloft by its innovative, no-chaser ethos. Though the iPhones here work surprisingly well (certainly better than they did in Soderbergh’s “Unsane”), I wonder if the story and the performances wouldn’t have been better served with the full apparatus of moviemaking behind them. But then again, “High Flying Bird” might not have existed if it wasn’t made off-the-cuff on phones. And then we wouldn’t have this electric, thought-provoking script by McCraney or this overdue leading performance by the fabulous but under-used Holland. And then there’s the surest sign that “High Flying Bird” moves to its own rhythm: It culminates with, of all things, a book recommendation. How radical is that? “High Flying Bird,” a Netflix release, isn’t rated by the Motion Picture Association of America but contains mature language. Running time: 90 minutes. Three stars out of four.

HENRY OBOOKIAH: THE MOST IMPORTANT MAN YOU NEVER HEARD OF
I
f there is a person on Kauai who knows the history of Kauai, it’s Chris Cook. Simply put, the man knows his stuff. He’s a University of Hawaii graduate, author of “The Kauai Movie Book” and “The New Kauai Movie Book” (which I have), and other books, and has taught classes on interpreting Kauai’s history. He’s also the former editor of The Garden Island newspaper and edited The Garden Island “Guide to Kauai” published in 1998. I should point out Chris and I have crossed paths over the years. We worked together at The Coeur d’Alene Press in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, and were at different times both editors of The Forks Forum in Forks, Wash., on the Olympic Peninsula. One of his recent books is “The Providential Life & Heritage of Henry Obookiah: Why did Missionaries come to Hawaii from New England and Tahiti?”
Now, Henry Obookiah is not exactly a household name that everyone knows and will want to read about. But you should. Here is a little information about him, per our friend, Chris Cook: “Henry Obookiah, known in Hawaii as Opukaha‘ia, in 1808 left his life as an apprentice kahuna at Kealakekua Bay in Hawaii Island for the sea. He rose from sailor to scholar to evangelical Christian celebrity in New England. Obookiah’s life and death, as told in his memorial biography, made him a leading Second Great Awakening figure in America, Great Britain and beyond.” The “Memoirs of Henry Obookiah” share some insights into this man. Cook takes readers on a more detailed journey. Mind you, this is not the easiest read in the world. History doesn’t tend to be exciting, riveting stuff that keeps you turning the pages. This is not a book you will read quickly. It is packed with
information that takes time to digest. There’s a lot of history in its 200 pages. But Cook does a nice job of putting things in a smooth manner that doesn’t make it seem like you’re trying to study for a high school history test. He has a way of
writing what could be dry material from long ago and bringing it to life today. This book is carefully chronicled and the historical accounts painstakingly vetted. It includes pictures and drawings and a glossary of Hawaiian words. And we don’t want to give you the impression this is dull. Far from it. Obookiah is a survivor. He was a young boy when his parents were killed and he fled for his life, carrying his baby brother on his back. His life was spared, setting off what would be an amazing journey. Obookiah only lived until he was about 30 years old, but his impact cannot be understated. As Cook writes: “During his short life, the path of this adventurous Native Hawaiian youth swept across a wide range of the world. Improbably, Obookiah, a youth from rural Ka‘u, served as the key link in the chain of events that led to the sending of missionaries
to the islands by the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions. “Remove Henry Obookiah’s scholarly work in preserving the Hawaiian language, delete the love he drew out of staunch New England Christians, silence his Macedonian cry to the Second Great Awakening church in America, and Hawaii today would be a lesser place. “The coming of the gospel to Hawaii was an epic event in the global history of Christianity.” Obookiah had more of an influence on Hawaii than the vast majority of us will ever know. If you want to know more, this book is for you. And if you want to know more about Hawaii’s history in general, Chris Cook is your man. ••• Bill Buley, editor-in-chief, can be reached at 245-0457 or bbuley@thegardenisland.com.
‘WILD BUNCH’ BOOK MAKES CASE FOR BEST WESTERN FILM EVER DOUGLASS K. DANIEL ASSOCIATED PRESS
enjoyed its best year in a decade before drifting off onto a side trail of American culture. There was “True Grit,” a traditional oater showcasing an n his detailed and passionOscar-winning performance ately argued history of the from the Western’s greatest movie “The Wild Bunch,” star, John Wayne. The buddy writer W.K. Stratton takes movie “Butch Cassidy and the the debate of best Western Sundance Kid” offered Paul movie ever to a higher level Newman and Robert Redford and convincingly positions with a mixture of ‘60s-style the film as the best Western ever made — and among the irony and cool.

I
Peckinpah’s “The Wild Bunch.” No one had ever seen anything like its opening and closing shootouts — bloody and balletic with explosions erupting and bodies flying in slow motion. Coming during the war in Vietnam and political violence at home, its visceral scenes overshadowed a multilayered story about loyalty and betrayal, sin and redemption, the past versus the future. Critics were divided over whether it was an outstanding film or the year’s worst. Stratton collects the kinds of elements required for a
lively movie backstory: a talented if irascible director, quirky cast and crew members, a difficult location shoot and a controversial reception by moviegoers and critics. Best of all, he recounts how an idea becomes a film and the creative, economic and fate-driven roadblocks it faces. A stuntman, Roy N. Sickner, imagined a story about gringo outlaws robbing a train in the United States and escaping to Mexico, its climax a massive shootout. Screenwriter Walon Green drew on his own love of
Mexican history and culture while shaping the story. Both Sickner and Green wanted their wild bunch to be tough outlaws who lived by a code of honor, the Mexico where they find love and death as free of movie cliches as possible. That was a goal for Peckinpah, too, when he reworked the script. Another aficionado of Mexico and its people, the director cast stars of Mexican cinema for small but memorable roles to give the movie a verisimilitude unusual for the genre. He also sought to present them as
characters in a broader spectrum rather than stereotypes. Starring Oscar-winners William Holden and Ernest Borgnine, “The Wild Bunch” was a second chance for Peckinpah. His top-notch 1962 Western “Ride the High Country” had boosted his standing, yet the critical and box-office failure of 1965’s “Major Dundee” combined with cost overruns and his volcanic personality to turn him into an industry pariah. A hard-drinker, Peckinpah generally behaved during filming — that meant drinking beer, mostly — and achieved a creative peak.

FISH AND POI STILL A COMPLETE MEAL
“F
ish and poi” — where did it come from? Traditionally, you had to have both ‘ai and i‘a for your meal to be considered a complete meal, and not just a snack, said Malia Nobrega-Olivera of Hawai‘inuikea School of Hawaiian Knowledge during Na Kalo i‘a presentation that is a part of the OceanFest programming at Kukui Grove Center. A‘i would usually refer to kalo, or taro, or other vegetables, while i‘a would often refer to fish, but could also refer to something like salt. Thusly, if you had kalo and salt, you had a complete meal. This is where the idea of fish and poi originated, having a balanced meal in terms of ‘ai and i‘a.
