...unethical means. He’s also a stubborn misogynist, adding to our contempt. Upon the death of his uncle (Albert Finney), he inherits a château in France. Cue beautiful sunsets and rememberances of childhood. The movie alternates between flashbacks and the present day to establish how gentler moments of Skinner’s childhood influenced him. Romance enters the film when Skinner becomes reacquainted with the French countryside, his neighbors, and a hard-hearted local girl named Fanny. The flashbacks focus on the moments that young Max (Freddie Highmore) spent at his Uncle Henry?...

But the process takes days, not weeks, and the result: a dramatic tightening effect around the eyes and jawline, according to Dr. Fitzpatrick...
...trip, really doesn’t seem to have a practical purpose. For all the theoretical grandstanding that has accompanied its inception, its leaders have found little real initiatives to put Harvard’s bounty towards.

How sad. If there’s a detailed and demonstrable case to be made for Harvard women having a space of their own, then the center?...

Although 20 is a gentler introduction to orgo than 17, Chem 30 is very difficult but thorough. The difference is evident when 20/30 alums also decide to take 27. (Why? Apparently because they actually like orgo and want to learn about its biological applications. Or because they are legally insane.) They are routinely excluded from the grading...
...eagerly anticipated U.S. comedies gracing the Festival. The others are For Your Consideration, the latest in Christopher Guest's semi-improvisational parodies (following Waiting for Guffman, Best in Show and A Mighty Wind) and Stranger Than Fiction, in which America's top film funnyman Will Ferrell taps a kinder, gentler side - Motion Picture Academy members, attention must be paid...
