...curved knives Lindsay M. Liles ’10 is brandishing glint in the wintry sunlight that streams into the common room of her Mather quint. She locks their hooked ends together, and for a moment it looks like she is going to swing them over her head in lethal, long-handled circles. But then she puts the knives down. She wants to show off the thick sparkly ribbon she sewed in high school, as well as the sequined ballroom dance costume she just finished altering. “I love glitter,” she says. ALTER EGOLiles...
...Canadian critic of "a young Joan Sutherland without the belle poitrine [fine bosom]," and six years later, her much-heralded talent faces the blowtorch of expectation with Alcina.

As is appropriate for a video that is selling a movie, there’s a lot of interesting and un-explained stuff going on: T.I. plays an intense game of chess, a weightlifting model hangs around, and plenty of women tool around on roller skates...
Steve McQueen, fresh from the Actors Studio, got his first starring role in this 1958 TV series, and at times he must have thought Lee Strasberg would disown him. McQueen's method here was a weathered glint and a sawed-off Winchester rifle in his holster. As a bounty hunter with a stern personal code of ethics, McQueen did have something Hollywood could appreciate: star quality. The fun in this first-season DVD is watching him mix it up with other tyros--James Coburn, Warren Oates, Michael Landon--who would also soon learn how to commandeer the screen...
