...told that I shall not touch the exam. A little bit like Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings??‘You shall not pass!’” Marshall said...
...Lamont Library Café, students were asked to choose from four photographs to identify the dean. After a grueling but fair selection process, Pilbeam’s picture was placed among those of British actor Sir Ian Holm (Bilbo Baggins in “The Lord of the Rings??), musician Elvis Costello, and folk-singer-turned-fundamentalist Yusuf Islam (formerly known as Cat Stevens).

The soundtrack lends little to the emotion and action of the film. This brings up another core problem: “300” lifts a lot from Peter Jackson’s trilogy—and is about as historically accurate. Understandably...
