...expect to see So Fine offered in Eng 12b next semester, though; classical elements do not necessarily make a classic comedy, and So Fine is far from great humor. Too often the slapstick scenes flop for simple lack of originality. Clumsy gunmen run into nuns carrying food; when a tryst is interrupted by the return of the jealous husband, the young lover hides (you guessed it) under the bed; and the final chase scene takes place on-and off-stage during a performance of Verdi's Otello.

...executive dean, he hopes that the K-School can free itself to address larger questions. "I think old-fashioned questions of political philosophy will become more wide-spread," he says. If they do, Graham Allison will be right in the thick of the debate, whether at a Trilateral Commission tryst or a Council of foreign Relations meeting. He will travel to keep in touch with what he terms the "marketplace"--he squeezes about six appointments a day into his weekly sojourns to Washington or New York--always on the ball, hustling, but never fully forgetting his role as a model...
