...after his American odysseys (Sunset Boulevard and Whistle Down the Wind), his Irish adventure (The Beautiful Game) and his Indian idyll (Bombay Dreams, which he produced), the composer has at last found an English gothic tale with which he might be able to harness the spooky power - not to mention the box-office returns - of Phantom. Or so his followers hoped. And it's easy to see why Lloyd Webber fans thought The Woman in White would be a return to phantasmagorical form. Wilkie Collins' 1860 novel is a Victorian chiller with a twisted yet strangely hypnotic villain. If that...
...surveyed felt it was acceptable to show Hitler's human side, while 26% said it wasn't. "The taboo has been broken," says Rolf Giesen, the curator of the Film Museum in Berlin, who is troubled by the film. "To show Hitler as a benevolent old man and not mention the Holocaust or the millions of people who became victims of the war - this is a real danger."

It's synonymous with corruption and unfairness. At the time it came across as political but we were just talking about what affected our lives.

As she did against UMass, Sobek-Rosnick flashed a brilliantly deadly stroke, beating Friar netminder Meredith Jones top-shelf into the goal...
Undergraduate Council Fee Hike: Nothing created a stir on campus last year like a stealthily proposed termbill fee hike. That $60 fee on your termbill is almost double the $35 it used to be, and it will increase again to $75 for next year. Having failed to mention the fee hike when running for council president, Mahan successfully persuaded the campus to narrowly vote in favor of the increase in a school-wide referendum; however, a proposal to make the fee mandatory failed. With a lot more bling in its coffers, the council has promised to come through with bigger...
