...their theatrical releases. Although not exactly B-movies—VES and English Professor J.D. Connor ’92 describes them as “A-minus movies”—they were frequently dismissed in their own time as being excessively provocative and tabloid. In retrospect, however, it is clear that it was exactly this aspect of Fuller’s style that served as a strong influence for contemporary filmmakers like Martin Scorcese and Quentin Tarantino and for the French New Wave, for whom he was a hero of Hitchcock’s stature...
...very difficult practicing and not being able to compete,” Bassi said. “But, in retrospect, I think it was beneficial for me and for the team. I was able to push people in practice, while learning how to support the team in ways other than swimming fast...
Except in my high school. At my high school, we knew how to confront disaster! One bright spring day, we all filed out to the football field after school. A teacher had placed fluorescent cones from the field house in a big rectangle to represent Colorado. (In retrospect, it seems fortunate that the tragedy did not occur in, say, Hawaii.)

The case he builds against Starr in My Life is a lawyer's case, careful and powerful. In retrospect, it is clear that there was no substance to the Whitewater allegations and the other White House scandalettes--the travel-office firings, the FBI files, the death of Vince Foster--except, of course, Lewinsky. It seems clear that Starr conducted an unseemly and irresponsible investigation filled with "abuses of power...
