...producers were acutely aware of the fact that he would not be able to actively promote his album, since he is continuing his studies this year. As a result, they leaned on the Harvard name to turn heads, and Baek had little control over how the music video was put together. “The music video is what these middle aged men think of me and like about me, but, the question is, is this going to cross over to the younger audience? That’s the part I was worried about...
...limits of the female body. The women involved pretend to love it—most men, Dines admitted, are not sadists and will not enjoy porn that smacks of suffering—but afterward they are left to inspect themselves for the kinds of tears and ruptures that commonly result. Actresses are prone to Chlamydia of the eye from the semen that is sprayed on their faces in a mocking and malicious spirit—one’s face is, after all, the place of personality, so what better thing to plaster over with ejaculate if the objective...
...definitely back. He gave us Beyoncé-aided bravura at the 2004 Grammys, and we worshipped his phallus during this year’s Superbowl halftime show.

...appears at 70 and at 35. Roth salvages the boring intellectual banter between Dominic’s doubles as best he can, though the scenes drag. However, Coppola’s efforts ultimately go astray. By attempting to cover so many disparate topics in one film, the end result feels jumbled and jumpy. Crucial elements of the film fail to develop, leaving the audience confused. The older Dominic acts much too frail in his performance, and such affectations detract from the film’s overall coherence. Dominic’s few interactions with his estranged love Laura (Alexandra Maria...
