According to Louie, the most important part of her job as producer is finding funding for the numerous independent films that she works on. It takes a great deal of work, she says, as she described the role of social networking in her life as a producer. “I’ve negotiated deals half-drunk at parties,” she told students. Despite the seeming glamour of her job, however, it is a difficult and exhausting one. “I send over 300 emails a day, at least,” she said. It also...
What makes “A Prophet” a truly great film, though, is its irreverence, which often crosses into pure magical realism. Characters and scenes are introduced with bold-lettered captions, and the incredible soundtrack has everything from Bob Dylan-sound-a-likes to Nas.

Spreading these community dinners out over different nights would reduce stress on the remaining dining halls, while still fostering house...
...administration needs to recognize that inter-house dining is a reality of campus life. It needs to stop ignoring the problems that the current restrictions are creating, and consider stepping in to mandate more reasonable restrictions, if necessary. Harvard’s house system is a great part of campus social life, but we need to make sure that promoting house life in the river houses doesn’t end up leaving others out in the cold...
