...find her rhythm, Gridley dropped two more matches in the consolation bracket. Cao earned the No. 3 seed this week after winning her flight in the William and Mary Invitational last weekend. In her first match at the Cissie Leary Tournament, she easily defeated the Bulldogs’ Lauren Ritz 6-3, 6-2. However, just before the first-set tiebreaker in the quarterfinals, Cao was forced to pull out due to injury. Jania, the No. 4 seed in the tournament, won 6-4, 6-1 and advanced to the quarterfinals as well. She then fell to Jessica Rhee from...

We get a glimpse of the Victorian houses that had once been Bunker Hill's elitist pride and were now slum abodes. The Angels Flight railway, the movie theater, the Ritz Bar are seen in their full functioning glory. Since the people in The Exiles rehearsed some of their scenes, the movie may not fit the precise definition of a documentary. But it is a precious document of a vanished culture.

...They're vital and craggy in this film. Faces jump off the screen and leech into your memory.
