There’s something nice I’d like to say about the based-on-fact, small-town, Appalachia-set thriller “Above Suspicion.” Emilia Clarke - you know her as either Daenerys Targaryen or Khaleesi or Mother of Dragons on “Game of Thrones” - is terrific as Susan Smith, the hot-tempered, drug-addled, sex-starved piece of white trash who narrates the whole film from the afterlife. As is Jack Huston, playing Mark Putnam, the eager new FBI agent who comes to town on a case, but falls under the spell of Susan. They both dig into their roles and never come up for air.

It’s difficult for Bob Comtois to pinpoint when music started to become one of the driving forces of his life. But he’s pretty sure it began with his voice. Growing up in Northbridge, he recalls that, as a young boy, he had a strong desire to sing like the Everly Brothers.
“I would sing harmony along with Everly Brothers records, and I could do either part,” he said by phone from his home in Uxbridge. “So, one evening, while my mother was at work, I asked my father for a kid brother, but he told me to shut up.” (laughs)
Pat Donaher’s path to becoming a jazz saxophonist didn’t begin with that goal in mind. Growing up in Quincy, he was playing piano by 6 – his parents’ idea – and took to it. But like so many other kids before him, it wasn’t long before he started thinking about other instruments too.
“It’s typical of parents saying if you stick with piano for ‘X’ number of years, you can take another instrument,” said Donaher, 46, from his home in Watertown. “That was in the mid-’80s, a time when pop songs still had a saxophone solo. And right around that time I was listening to and really hearing (saxophonist) Charlie Parker, and that was the catalyst; hearing him play ‘Lover Man,’ I said, ‘I want to do that!’ ”
