...said. Amaker had been the head coach at Michigan for the past six years, accumulating a 109-83 record but failing to make the NCAA Tournament, before being fired after last season. Before that, he had been the head coach at Seton Hall for four years, reaching the Sweet Sixteen in 2000. “I can’t thank you enough for this opportunity,” Amaker said. “I certainly feel like it is going to be a joyous ride.” He replaces Frank Sullivan, who coached the Crimson for the past...
...would have come to understand his fellow human beings. Sadly, that is not the case. Ignatius gives us caricatures, not characters. Alice, the supposedly enlightened American liberal who is truly not enlightened at all, is almost unreadable. “He’s kind of quiet, but really sweet,” she says of a co-worker. “Has this cute mark on his forehead from praying so much.” Her words drip with this oblivious (and agonizing to read) condescension.

As ambitious as it is flawed, “Death Proof” fails to entertain as much as the blood-and-camp festival that is “Planet Terror.” Tarantino’s self-reflexivity is a bit too humorless, his dialogue...
...want to see get the girl," says O.C. creator Josh Schwartz, 30, who patterned Brody's character after himself. "He's able to attract neurotic Jewish writers to write for him, but he's definitely cooler in real life than the characters he's provided. He can be really sweet and adorkable, but there's some anger there. He was able to give the character some dignity. Seth Cohen was a guy who had no friends, but it was almost as much his choice as the Newport Beach water-polo players'." In other words, he's the first nerd...
