...Anthony R. Britt '10, who worked with Spoering in his time on the House Committee and Undergraduate Council, said that Spoering is “always smiling and very approachable.” Britt recalled that one time, he e-mailed Spoering the night before cross-registration paperwork was due for courses at the Kennedy and Divinity Schools, and Spoering worked with him very early the next morning to meet the deadline...
...epic, Fitzcarraldo - a physical feat that was filmed on location without the aid of special effects. It was a virtuoso climax to an all-but-impossible film shoot - a two-year journey into the jungle that found Herzog drained of funds, battling the elements and stuck in the cross fire of a border war. As his personal form of therapy, Herzog meticulously recorded his experiences in his journal; some 300 pages of those musings - thoroughly shocking accounts of a film production brought to the brink - have been converted into the book Conquest of the Useless: Reflections from the Making...

And beyond ours too, though we like to tell ourselves otherwise...
...seduced by an unstable woman who soon deserts him, leaving this gracious man severe and doctrinaire. How can Yu reconnect with his father? By committing outrageous sins and confessing them to him. This is the first 15 minutes of a four-hour whirlwind epic of faith, family, cults, cross-dressing, upskirt photography and violent femmes, told with confidence and intensity, and based not on a manga but on the life of a friend of director Sono (The Suicide Club). Unmissable - except it has no U.S. distributor. The DVD will be released later this month by YesAsia...
