...risk of voicing what I know to be the unpopular position, let me say once and for all: I hated FOP. Every grimy, sweaty, exhausting, hungry moment of it. Since I’ve never been known as a born athlete, people often find it hard to believe I was a FOPper, but I’ve hiked many times before, and love the great outdoors. What I soon discovered on FOP, however, was that my love of nature is predicated on the ability to shower after a long hike. Slowly watching my leg hair grow out over the course...
...Class of 2013 FOP veterans, you will have dropped your 40-pound backpacks, washed off your tarps, and showered five days of encrusted dirt off of your weary, malnourished bodies. If you were like me, perhaps you also tried unsuccessfully to wash away the indelible emotional marks that FOP seared into your brain. Or perhaps you returned an enlightened soul and reveled in your newfound confidence, the mountain air still cycling in your lungs, desperate for the FOP leader application forms...

Chéri (Rupert Friend) and Lea are star- or rather age-crossed lovers, yet even the most romantic-minded moviegoer will likely struggle with them as exemplars of true love. He's a shallow fop, she's a jaded businesswoman. There's more hauteur than heat in the way they interact, and the tenor of Frears' film and Christopher Hampton's script tends to the dispassionate, much like Colette's writing. Emotionally speaking, the pacing is languorous; almost all of the film's impact is delivered...
First off, take heed when choosing your blocking group. Think you want to live with your freshman roommate or that nice gal you met on FOP? Think again. We’ve heard that the Harvard track team really knows...
