...Compton Cup for the second straight year and the sixth time in seven seasons.“It has been a hard week because coming off of last weekend’s loss [to Brown], I think a lot of guys were a bit demoralized and a bit frantic to make things right,” varsity stroke George Kitovitz said. “I thought there was a positive response from the boat all week. Everybody just knuckled down a bit and thought of what they could do to get us a win.”Every Harvard-Princeton...
...nonstop Moral Reasoning-related freakouts rather than, like, joining organizations and making friends or whatever. It wasn’t until sophomore fall when I received a Facebook message inviting me to comp The Darker Side, WHRB’s hip-hop department, that I began participating in the frantic extracurricular whirl that defines the Harvard experience for many.

...Everything must come to an end, and the Democrats’ drum-roll is becoming more frantic with each passing day.

In The Canterville Ghost (1944), Dassin's job was to referee between two shameless scene-stealers: Charles Laughton and the seven-year-old Margaret O'Brien. If there's a magic moment in any of these features...
...immaculate a tailor as Armani, Scorsese makes the tone of each film fit its characters. American Boy, like its subject, is fast, almost frantic, a movie on a cocaine jag. Italianamerican, a conversation with his parents about their lives in New York City's Little Italy and their roots in Sicily, has an earthy, homemade vibe--not surprising since it was made in the home he grew up in. The closing credits include his mom's recipe for spaghetti sauce...
