...film, “Snow Angels,” hardly a scene goes by without the presence of snow. The title is ironic, however, given that snow falls on characters who are often ugly, spiteful, and selfish. In a film that focuses almost entirely on complex human relationships, the frigid settings represent the brutal and unforgiving manner in which the characters interact. The gripping storyline and nuanced performances in “Snow Angels” force viewers not only to invest their time but also their psychology and emotions in a story about the destructive power of love...

Far from elegant (or even reasonable), the process by which we make our most important political choices is a sticky web of policy, identity, and a strong thirst for likeable leadership; our inability to gauge, much less standardize, these criteria with which we size up our options...
