It is a short, nonstop stuntfest that, by going back to basics and placing them on the screen with simple, breathless stylishness, turns what is essentially a lowlife movie form into something one is not embarrassed to call "pure" cinema--all energy, movement and high kinetic...

...love the chaos of having too many wonderful things around you, and not having a hierarchy of values,” she adds. Carlisle isn’t just talking about the performance fair, but about Harvard in general. While technically a Quincy House resident, Carlisle’s nonstop touring keeps her from staying at Harvard for long. Most of the time she travels up and down the East Coast, but she also occasionally flies out to Texas or Montana. “[Touring] is an incredible education in business, probably better than going to business school...
