...composer's apparently genial genius (a refreshing exception is the crankish Jonathan Miller, who has directed many a Mozart opera). Since Mozart traveled endlessly in search of gigs - 25,000 miles all told - the director, Phil Grabsky gives us many useless out-the-window shots of his own car chugging along modern European highways as he duplicates those journeys, many sequences of contemporary citizens wandering aimlessly and inelegantly in front of buildings Mozart visited...

As for those performances, it is hard to get better than Marlon Brando in Street Car or Denzel in X. Deniro in Raging Bull. Al Pacino in Dog Day Afternoon. Meryl Streep in Sophie's Choice...

At the end of the block is Poison, which four years ago was Mansour's commercial hub, lined with restaurants, shops, a gym and even a liquor store.

Drake ’06, who planned the activity as some sort of war game, were both killed when an Adams group calling themselves “The Black Hand” threw hand grenades into their closed car on Tuesday. Since then, the war has raged without pause. CEB Vice-Chair C. Kai Wu ’09 is reportedly in hiding in Mather-occupied River East. Orders to shoot him on sight have been issued by most of the remaining House Committees (HoCos). Calls for peace have...
