Clad in his classic cowboy hat and tinted sunglasses, rock star Bono fielded questions from students and discussed a possible future collaboration with Harvard at an event held at the John F. Kennedy School of Government with University President Lawrence H. Summers yesterday.

Another failing of this film is its dreary, comedy-sucking location. “The Ice Harvest” takes place in Wichita, Kan., specifically either in or in front of strip clubs or suburban houses. The lack of visual diversity of the scenes...
