First, The Crimson attacks the name of the "Coming Out Dinner," accusing us of mocking homosexuals who reveal themselves to their friends and families. Of course conservatives recognize that many gays find it difficult to "come out." To the extent that the Coming Out Dinner is mocking, however, it is meant to mock only those who feign oppression within the Harvard community, which remains tolerant to a fault...
...Black on Both Sides (Rawkus), Mos Def's cultural concerns reveal themselves in every number. The opener, Fear Not of Man, delivers a manifesto: "We are hip-hop. Me, you, everybody... So the next time you ask where hip-hop is going, ask yourself: Where am I going?"

It's also a decidedly French experience--it's incomparable to anything that I've ever seen in American theater (the only comparison I can make is to 1995's The Fifth Element--and that, of course, was made...
...Boogie Nights. With his undulating voice and quick reversals of emotion, he nicely portrays Rusty's painful limbo between lonely man and gaudy transvestite. Reading in between his frequently trite lines, Hoffman exposes Rusty's inner vulnerability. De Niro, too, raises his Walt above mere caricature. His subtle expressions reveal the pain of an independent man losing his mobility while his cautious moves towards Rusty make the burgeoning friendship relatively believable...
