...with your life.” But, like any good OCS acolyte, Velani wasn’t too zen about it, advising career fair attendees to “get contact info and e-mail one on one.” Maintaining a surprisingly sunny outlook, Rossen D. Kralev ’09 says, “Hedge fund people are a lot of fun.” (We’re guessing that depends on your definition of fun.) And for the attendees who were actually worried about, you know, getting a job, OCS had a remedy: the fair...

...executive producers. But the movie, All the King's Men, is not a cheesy, made-for-TV biopic. It is, in fact, a conscientious adaptation of Robert Penn Warren's 1946 Pulitzer prizewinning novel, which was also the basis of a much more rambunctious movie by Robert Rossen, which won the 1949 Best Picture Oscar...

...writer-director of the new film, Steven Zaillian, says he has never seen Rossen's very good film, and that probably makes sense. Zaillian's movie is much more a reimagining than a remake, and it's much more faithful to the tone of the novel, which is by no means easy to duplicate.

...what are they playing? Why, Newman is once again Fast Eddie Felson (aka the Hustler in Robert Rossen's pungently atmospheric 1961 classic), now resting on his legendary status among pool players; Cruise is Vincent, a wacko pretender to Eddie's former throne. Ultimately, one knows, art should imitate the players' situation: these men should cross cues to determine sovereignty over pool's dingy domain...

...stuff. But Oliver Stone is alpha male incarnate, and his pictures, from Platoon to JFK to Any Given Sunday, are celebrations and autopsies of overweening machismo. Alexander, his first fiction film in five years, promises plenty more of the same. Instead of a stately epic--like Robert Rossen's 1956 Alexander the Great, with Richard Burton as the globe-annexing god-king--Stone presents a riot of sensations, military and erotic, through which Alexander (Colin Farrell) has to hack like an intrepid soldier through an unfamiliar jungle. All of which makes for a long, lumpy trip with a charismatic guide...
