...sunlight brushing her shoulder as if singling her out. And Alvarez Bravo even managed to instill life into still life: in Laughing Mannequins, glamorous cardboard women appear smiling, while it's the real people in the image that lack life. The same is true in Cartier-Bresson's Barrio Chino, in which a smiling face chalked on the wall eclipses a spent man below. Before he died, Cartier-Bresson had a final look at his images for the exhibit, taking in his surrealism-influenced shots of Mexico and unselfconscious images of Europe, such as the ambiguous mutual grooming outside...

That when Ryan steps outside to sneak a smoke, he will run into the girl next door, his Troubled Future Love Interest. That the T.F.L.I. will have a Spoiled Rich Friend, a Mean...
...Chino Moreno were a girl--and he'll probably take this the wrong way--he would be Christina Aguilera. The nu-metal that Moreno yawps as lead singer of Deftones is the masculine obverse of Aguilera's teen pop; both are gender-and age-specific modes of musical expression about sex, self-doubt and self-pity.
