...What we must not ignore is the gross ineptitude of this film. As he previously demonstrated with Secretary, the director, Steven Shainberg, has a thoroughly nasty desire to degrade and humiliate female characters. This is combined with a truly tasteless eye for settings and d?cor, a staggering ignorance of nuance in performance and an apparent belief that the business of art is to repel rather than to seduce. Or rather to repel and then tack on a little spurious uplift as he finally does here. Another way of putting that is that he is precisely the opposite of Diane Arbus...

...past, the Faculty has stubbornly resisted required evaluations. To their credit, most faculty members accept CUE evaluations, as well as allowing their publication in the annual CUE Guide. “Most,” however, is not enough. Gross said last spring that about 60 professors chose not to have their fall 2005 courses evaluated. This is no small number.
