Beyond the Sea
Kevin Spacey discusses his reincarnation of Bobby Darin in the new film "Beyond the Sea." Then, Martin Kemp takes a close look at the many interests of Leonardo da Vinci, and attempts to unlock the motivations behind his work, in a new biography: Leonardo. Michael Lomonaco, who has served as executive chef at 21 Club and Windows on the World, pays tribute to the art of spontaneous cooking with Nightly Specials. And in our weekly Please Explain feature, we’ll explore the world of search engines: how do they work, and how are they evolving?
