...Still, last week's murder of Millan, one of the the highest-ranking police officials ever to be gunned down in Mexico, set a new benchmark in the Colombia-style drug carnage that continues to rage from Tijuana to Cancun. Mexico has already logged almost 1,200 drug-related killings this year - putting it well on track to break last year's record of almost 2,500 - as an increasingly chaotic array of drug gangs fight one another for trafficking turf, and against any officials who dare to confront them...
...brilliantly realized central roles (partners in crime Sweeney Todd and Mrs. Lovett) that make this musical melodrama go. Arlo D. Hill ’09 is fully at home in the title role. Handsome, brooding, and gaunt, his Sweeney strikes a perfect balance between seething rage and frighteningly easy charm.

But on April 19, a convoy of a dozen cars bearing banners condemning France and opposing Tibetan independence slowly cruised by the French school in Beijing, where students were inside taking exams. My children are at a different school, but the display still...
...create a film in which sensory appeal outweighs predictability. Although Jones plays the main character, her static performance serves as a backdrop for the more dynamic characters she meets along her journey. Rachel Weisz, playing a trapped wife who despises her husband, transitions with ease between self-satisfaction, raw rage, and disbelieving grief, while Jones barely registers more than one emotion. She delivers lines such as “I hope you both drop dead!” with nearly the same nonchalance as “Hey, did he pick up the keys?” However, the richness...
