...Cosmo, my immediate impulse is to pull the magazine close to my chest and to look around to check that no one I know is present to witness the act. This reaction must be a throwback to the grocery store checkout lines of my youth in which my gaze at the magazine’s dirty cover was liable to ignite a rant from whatever adult I was with on the decline of modern society...
Thank God for Judi Dench. As long as she is around, giving people a steely gaze and telling it like it is, whether as James Bond’s cantankerous boss in “Casino Royale” or as the “battle axe” of a schoolteacher she plays in “Notes on a Scandal,” there will always be films worth seeing.

His geometric arrangement is asymmetrical and unique because of the altered dimensions. The subjects of each photo do not gaze at each other or show interaction; they function alone. Abandoning the traditional self-portrait and capitalizing on the repetition of keeping ethnicity and glasses as constants, Chen questions identity and sameness in a focused, non-didactic way. Finally, Sabrina Chou ’09 questions conventional ideas about the nature of human interaction...
