...beginning was magical—shiny early acceptance letters, bright new hoodies, a party-filled prefrosh weekend. But these great feelings continued through a virtually seamless first year of good friends, great professors, solid grades, and a fulfilling extracurricular activity—The Crimson. Like a 15-year-old virgin in her first relationship, I was ready for my promise ring to Cambridge.Then this year, something I had only thought to be rumor hit: sophomore slump. Suddenly, work got harder, relationships got more complicated, and I slipped into an increasingly dark depression. By the end of first semester...
...walk through the adjoining barn and makeshift area for producing cheese offered the sour smell of turned sheep's milk and a scene strewn with strainers, aluminum buckets filled with blocks of Pecorino cheese and a large bag of salt.

In The Crucifixion with the Virgin and St. John, the crouching woman appears to have three disproportionate arms, and her features are smudged out. Christ's blurred face, sunk between his shoulders, seems to be turned in his mother's direction, but it's as hard to read as a Rorschach inkblot test. His right hand...
Keener, who might have been doomed to always play parts similar to her role in “The 40-Year-Old Virgin,” here delivers an extraordinarily nuanced and tear-jerking performance. Christine is married to David, the definition of a completely insensitive jerk—made easier to believe as the actor, Jason Isaacs, plays Lucius Malfoy in the “Harry Potter” series. The moment when she silently realizes that she is better without him—conveyed simply by her dynamic facial expression and a well-framed shot of her husband?...
