Video

• The Barbarian Invasions

  The Barbarian Invasions is an intelligent film with many layers to it. Beautifully acted, truthful, and touching. It is a tragedy masquerading as comedy, so you laugh and cry simultaneously. I would rate it as one of the films you must watch before you die!

• Monster

  There is a great deal about Monster that deserves to be praised: from the actors to the direction to the writing to the cinematography and more. The movie does draw you in because all of those dynamics work together to put you close to Arlene Wuonos and tell you her story. Unfortunately, that's not all there is to it.

  If you can't keep your hole closed, maybe you shouldn't sign non-disclosure agreements. Should bloggers be proactive when it comes to disclosing their blogging activity to prospective employers?

  Part of the responsible media claims one week that they must ignore stories like the Swift Boat Vets, that are not news but just politically motivated. The next week the same journal ignores their own supposed principle. All a part of a normal day for the "legacy media".
