...posturing and ideas of what I think makes me cool or charming and turn up the more vulnerable parts of myself," Gosling says. In another actor's hands, a relationship with a silicone co-star might devolve into a farce or a gross-out comedy. But Gosling infuses Lars with a gentleness and a sense of wonder, and instead the film unfolds as a subversive romance. "Ryan managed to have a relationship with her that didn't seem ridiculous, embarrassing or weird," says Emily Mortimer, who plays Lars' aggressively loving sister-in-law Karin.

Last April, the Undergraduate Council proposed a Harvard College Book Information System to the Committee on Undergraduate Education, which promptly shut it down. According to former Dean of the College Benedict H. Gross ’71, speaking to The Crimson last spring, “I didn’t think that I could financially support an effort that was in some ways in opposition to the Harvard Coop.” This near-fetishistic protectionism, which the new College administration apparently still espouses, is befuddling...
