...blink. His icy authority has lifted his more than 100 character portraits in TV shows and some 30 mostly mediocre movies from the mundane to the fascinating. Whether Dern played a mad doctor in Two-Headed Transplant, a hillbilly husband in They Shoot Horses, Don't They?, a bi-sexual boy friend in Bloody Mama, he projected an anomie that was almost aggressive. Onscreen, he draws attention to himself in a curiously negative way, as if he were a marked man. Who else, for example, would allow himself to be cast as the only actor ever to kill John...
...Bicentennial? There are probably a lot more people who are dreading the long haul until December 1976 than are looking forward to it. I, for one, have already developed a deep-seated antipathy towards the number 200 and I cringe when I encounter any word that begins with "bi". Even for those who are for some reason actually enjoying this Bicentennial bombardment, the Day itself is bound to be anticlimax. The best place to wait out July 4, 1976, for everyone concerned, will be well out of the country, preferably on the other side of a sizeable body of water...
...arts committee recommended the formation of a Committee on Drama and Dance to offer courses in the College but not to grant degrees and an Office for the Arts to coordinate the loose network of extracurricular programs. The arts office has been established and now prints a bi-monthly newsletter, which serves as a clearinghouse for upcoming artistic events, and is involved in the never-ending search for funding for future events. The drama and dance committee, however, has never been officially proposed to the Faculty Council, and Epps says a decision will probably await Dean Rosovsky's proposed review...
...rarely performed on the Mainstage. It isn't that they don't want to tell you; they just don't know. Everyone is well aware that there hasn't been an original show--a new play written by a student--there since the late 60s--even though the bi-annual Phyllis Anderson prize for the best original undergraduate drama is a choice of either $500 towards publication or the play being performed on the Mainstage--but no one can explain it. Because of the hyper-secrecy of past Harvard Dramatic Club (HDC) boards, the present board and members have...
...land, they lived on moose, caribou, bear, beaver and small game which they hunted in winter. And when the river thawed in late May, they would fish for trout and salmon in its swollen waters. Today they keep themselves alive on beer, potatoes, bread and candy bars bought with bi-monthly welfare checks. In spite of a special concession from the Canadian government for unlimited hunting and fishing rights, fish have been scare this year on account of the protracted cold, and it's a lot easier to ride a Skidoo across the frozen river in mid-January...
