...Drosselmeyer (Lazlo Bardo), the eccentric godfather of Clara, dominates the first scene. If his distinctive air and cute magic tricks fail to dazzle, then his huge velvet cape undoubtedly will. Whether twirling or flying off after Clara and her prince to the Enchanted Forest, this cape has a life of its own. The other most prominent character is, of course, Clara (Janine Ronayne), the imaginative little heroine who dreams her Nutcracker is a Prince with whom she embarks on a fantastic adventure to the Enchanted Forest and the Palace of Sweets. Not only is this Clara a vivacious young actress...
...Standard, composed entirely of jazz standards (doubling, naturally, on producing duties). The execution is something fairly uneven. While works penned by Irving Berlin and Jerome Kern can never be truly faulted, Tyrell doesn't possess the vocal versatility to make them twinkle with true allure. "Give Me the Simple Life" caters to his scratchy vocals, but "On The Sunny Side of the Street," with its octave-plus range, proves to be a sufficient enough challenge that when he hits the upper register, it's enough to make you wince a little...
Admit it. You heard "Semi-Charmed Life" so many times that you memorized all the words, and you still didn't "want something else." Then you bought the album and found out that Third Eye Blind's songs were fantastic. "Graduate," "Narcolepsy," "I Want You"--for me, they were the songs that made my senior summer; for my brother, they were the hits of eighth grade; for everyone, they formed the soundtrack to a small part of our lives. And the new album, Blue, while perhaps not living up to the popularity of its predecessor, delivers a smattering of songs...
...soundtrack is any indication of the film to come, Man on the Moon, based on the life of comedian Andy Kaufman (Taxi), is going to be a very interesting, eccentric ride. The album has everything from the original Mighty Mouse theme (a favorite of Kaufman's) to a bizarre Jim Carrey/R.E.M. duet to the film's score, also composed by R.E.M. Some of the numbers are absolutely baffling, especially a whacked-out version of disco standard "I Will Survive," sung by Jim Carrey as one of Kaufman's alter-egos, Tony Clifton...
...students most easily confused with intellectuals. They found groups, they take on massive projects, they organize and coordinate large student activities from the Hasty Pudding to Project HEALTH to the IOP. They work long hours, put in incredible amounts of effort and make important changes in the quality of life for Harvard students and the surrounding communities, but leadership alone does not make an intellectual. These leaders could enthusiastically talk you under the table with plans for new improvements and new programs but are just as unlikely to know why it matters what they are doing. They work with like...
