...movie theaters, it's a wasteland of retreads. Rugrats in Paris and 102 Dalmatians are unwelcome sequels, The Grinch is an uninvited, ill-intentioned remake (it was the first movie I've walked out of since Boxing Helena), The Sixth Day is another Arnold clone (my brother carped, "I saw that last year"; "Nooo. That was End of Days," I answered). Unbreakable has its charms, but it also relies on the same pacing, colors, stars (Willis and a Haley Joel look-alike), and even kitchen (!) as The Sixth Sense. Bounce showcases a been-there-done-that Benneth love affair, Charlie...
...Lady Croom, the aristocrats who own Sidley Park. Jana Howland's costume design evokes the complexity of period dress through relatively simple outfits, which seem credible but not overwrought.

Robertson and Arnold are excellent in their exchanges with each other; they recognize the extreme dryness of Stoppard's wit and construct their characters accordingly. Geordie Broadwater '04 is also outstanding in these scenes as Valentine Coverly, a member...
...Arnold Cultural Society (ACS), which operates out of the Sigma Chi basement, is a case in point. When the ACS receives $450 of our termbill money to buy a DVD player, Schwarzenegger films and refreshments, it is obvious that the council is a little too free with its funds. It's not that these groups don't have a place on our campus, they just shouldn't be guaranteed our dollars...
Just because the medical profession has made advances that save lives does not mean doctors have to play God. They should quit worrying about lawsuits, stop providing unnecessary treatment and respect the wishes of the patient who wants to die with dignity. Compassion and common sense should prevail.
