...came to Blodgett Pool replete with energy, pseudo-instruments, and a crew of boisterous, slightly-inebriated frat boys. The Engineers would leave with their heads held low, their minds as numbingly confused as the MIT defense in the fourth quarter. In a game not soon to be forgotten, the Harvard faithful saw the men’s water polo team light up the evening with 6 goals in the fourth quarter en route to an 11-8 victory over visiting MIT. Junior David Tune orchestrated two offensive assaults on the Engineer net, tying the game at eight a piece...

...that's not the case. The Big Question asked by In the Valley of Elah (in case you've forgotten, that's where David slew Goliath) is this: What does a war without mercy or justification do to the young men and women who are obliged to fight it?

He has served his country unquestioningly and, as important, the movie hints that his belief system, both religious and political, is basically blue-collar, red-state conservatism.

...while others warbled to the hymns piped out over loud speakers from inside the service. Done with humming, "The Lord's My Shepherd," Londoner John Santos fondly remembered "an outstanding woman with a common touch." Showing up today, he said, was simply to make sure that "won't be forgotten...
