...Harvard continues to wallow in a puddle of general inconsistency. Were the Crimson to have taken nil points from a road trip like this, say, just after its Beanpot debacles, nobody would have been terribly surprised. But after showing glimpses of brilliance last week, losing narrowly at Cornell one night and then toying with a good Colgate team for long stretches the next, a lot of people might have expected more from this latest odyssey...
...stage musical Jesus Christ Superstar, is a scathing social critique dressed up as a morbid rock opera. It portrays the rise of a supernatural demagogue who seizes power and leads the world to destruction. The album's 16 songs, including Tourniquet (which is getting steady play on MTV), wallow in nightmarish, frequently X-rated scenarios of occultism, suicide, torture, greed and mindless celebrity worship.

Nothing ages so quickly as yesterday's vision of the future, or of the technologically advanced past that Lucas imagined. Today we can wallow in the film's sleek retro-kitsch; even the opening logo has acquired the classic blockiness of a '56 DeSoto.

...imagines, for very long. Much as we all enjoy a sloppy wallow in cheap sentiment, it is hard to imagine anyone wanting to watch Robin Williams further degrade in Jack what was one of the movies' most valuable gifts. The film is a Big variant--a kid inhabiting a grownup's body and getting into all sorts of trouble as a result. But we're not talking about an ill-considered wish going merrily awry here. We're talking about a tragic illness. For Jack doesn't just get older and hairier, he keeps aging at four times the normal...
