...leaving the background in blurred obscurity; this stylistic choice draws the viewer to the character’s performance and forces ideological identification. Gaghan wields his camera analytically to showcase the palaces and slums of exotic countries, but never loses sight of the corrupted inhabitants. The developed characters and crisp cinematography are further enhanced by an impressively haunting score. The music boldly deepens the film’s emotional impact without drawing too much attention away from the narrative.

Indeed, almost every Harvard male has incorporated some of the aesthetic. Even some math majors have foregone their Zelda t-shirts and flood pants and embraced the niceties of a crisp white oxford and leather satchels.As a fashion columnist (really, the highest form of modern anthropologist), I regard metrosexuality with mixed feelings. Of course, in many ways it’s a sign of societal progress. According to the well-known mathematical principles of Harrington’s Law, any increase...
