...give Spielberg an Oscar for Jaws, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Raiders of the Lost Ark or E.T. (He had to wait till 1994, when Schindler's List took Best Picture and Best Director.) Martin Scorsese, by general acclamation the most intense and gifted director of this talented bunch, wasn't even nominated for Taxi Driver, then suffered a generation of indignity as his work on Raging Bull, The Last Temptation of Christ, Goodfellas, Gangs of New York and The Aviator lost out to that of other, lesser directors.

...orders, this could be a great single. Throughout “Lucky,” Matthew Caws’ lyrics are often awkward. The words sometimes don’t fit quite right, occasionally splitting sentences across lines. Caws sounds as if he took a casual conversation with a bunch of guys and stuffed it into a musical format. But Nada Surf’s music tends to concentrate on melody more than poetry, so they think they can get away with it. One final highlight, “The Fox,” doesn’t blend into...
