...perpetual untimeliness of death in day-to-day life. The brief and rare use of music is entirely diegetic, stemming only from sources within the scenes, such as a barroom jukebox or a beaten-up car stereo. Montgomery’s first somber exchange with Stone, for example, is set to a cheery Beach Boys tune. The movie also resists the impulse to tailor the style of scenes to their emotional underpinnings; in one scene, a woman discovers that her husband has died on the sunniest, most peaceful of early fall days.

After a first round bye in the NCAA Tournament, the No. 9 Crimson will play No. 5 Monmouth University in the round of 32 Sunday afternoon at Ohiri Field.

This is very much QOTSA...
