Philadelphia Boxing Legend Joe Frazier Passes Away From Cancer At The Age Of 67 1/12/44 To 11/7/12

- Philadelphia boxing legend and former undisputed heavyweight champion "Smokin' " Joe Frazier has passed away at 67. Frazier was diagnosed with liver cancer in late September. His condition never appeared to improve and he was moved to hospice care earlier this month. Frazier is best known for his fights with Muhammad Ali and George Foreman which defined a generation. 

Though he was born in South Carolina, it was Philadelphia that Joe called home. Scenes from the movie Rocky were taken from real life experiences which Frazier was never credited for. His rivalry with Ali was built upon "the Fight of the Century" and "the Thrilla in Manilla". These fights didn't just change the face of boxing but also had a deeper impact socially not just in the United States but the whole world. 

Frazier is survived by his sons. 

Arthouse Alert: "Black Swan" in Philadelphia Monday (4/4)

Don’t front. You know you wanna see Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis tongue each other down again.

Natalie Portman was busy in 2010, and she capped the year off by announcing her pregnancy. She’s spent the first quarter of this year on award tour, taking home both the Golden Globe and Oscar for her demanding performance in Black Swan. Darren Aronofsky’s latest tale of disturbing behavior was released on DVD this week, but the Trocadero Theatre will bring it back to the big screen as part of its Monday Movie series.

Showtime is at 8 p.m., but get there prior to 7 p.m. for a free beer and bag of popcorn. You’ll be in suspense as a frigid Portman tries to out-sass an effortlessly sexy Mila Kunis throughout 108 minutes of both warped and delightful images. It’s unfortunate that even after all the critical acclaim, the film will probably be best remembered for its sex scenes. But it inspired this list, so no compaints here. -Julian Kimble (@JRK316)
