...Bulger, who left elected office last year to become the president of the University of Massachusetts (UMass). This year, current State Sen. Stephen F. Lynch hosted the event, and The Crimson sent a reporter to cover it. The carefully-reported depiction of the event was an example of solid, timely coverage of local issues. The reporter, Richard M.

Pakula (Klute, Presumed Innocent) develops his story patiently, without letting its tensions unravel. At a moment when everyone is saying the studios have lost the knack for making solid, broadly appealing entertainments, The Devil's Own suggests the skill may be only mislaid.
