‘The Fabelmans’: Spielberg in the factory of dreams

Marcelle Couto | Friday, January 20, 2023

I know what you’re thinking. Another movie about how great and fantastic “the movies” are? We get it, we know directors think they’re amazing. But trust me, “The Fabelmans,” despite playing on this overused trope, manages to combine innovative and moving elements with grace and ease. It is Steven Spielberg’s most personal movie, and maybe

‘After We Fell’ and the real problem with modern cinema

Rose Androwich | Thursday, January 20, 2022

“After We Fell” — based on a Harry Styles Wattpad fanfiction — was recently released on Netflix as the third movie of its series. Some fans of the movie will be thrilled to see Hardin (Hero Fiennes Tiffin) and Tessa (Josephine Langford) back on the screen; I, however, will not. The truth is, despite watching all

‘The Devils’ and my search for cinema’s hidden masterpieces

Justin George | Tuesday, April 20, 2021

A brief primer on region coding before we begin: DVD and Blu-ray discs are coded by manufacturers to only work on players from certain regions, allowing for healthy competition amongst disc manufacturers around the world. However, this acts as a barrier to what film consumers and collectors can obtain. Region coding is the bane of

Missing our missing movie theaters

Aidan O'Malley | Monday, August 17, 2020

I was in a movie theater when Notre Dame first went online. It was the Wednesday of spring break. I was back home with no plans and no friends. Painfully aware of the homework I would return to, I dedicated my week to something I struggled to find time for on campus, going to the

Scene on the Screen: looking into the best, the worst and the weirdest filmmaking, on both the big and small screens, from 2019. Cinema? Who is she? By Mike Donovan, Scene Editor Robert Downey Jr.’s “Avengers: Endgame” martyrdom tried quite diligently to signal “‘the end of an era,’ punctuating a sprawling filmic enterprise” with the

From the Archives: Film develops into a beloved art form

From the Archives | Monday, September 9, 2019

When the first issue of The Observer was released in 1966, the Scene department didn’t exist.  It’s not that our journalistic predecessors hated art — quite the opposite, actually. Early editions of The Observer included detailed analyses of literature, theatre and art exhibitions. These articles just lacked a formal category. However, The Observer’s earliest scribes

Scene’s Selections: The Oscars

Erin McAuliffe, Kelly McGarry, Charlie Kenney, Jack Riedy and Elizabeth Hynes | Friday, February 24, 2017

  Best Picture: “Moonlight” By Jack Riedy Like all great movies, “Moonlight” is both a small story and an impossibly large one. The coming-of-age film follows a black boy, Chiron, as he grows up in Miami poverty. We see him as a meek, nearly mute child, as a scrawny harassed teen and as an impossibly built ex-convict in

DPAC Cinema Preview: “The Lobster”

Brian Boylen | Thursday, September 29, 2016

If you could be any animal, which one would you choose? This question, a staple of playground chats, seems relatively innocuous in nature. This is not the case in the world of “The Lobster,” where the transformation from man to animal is a harsh reality. In the dystopian society presented by the film, adults must

We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department and you responded with the request: “Northwestern @ Notre Dame 2014 Football Breakdown”. That game was a heartbreaking loss for a Notre Dame team that had started 6-0 before stumbling down the stretch to a 7-5 record. A bowl game win over LSU salvaged some optimism for the program’s future, but that loss to Northwestern was a shocking result that contributed to one of the more appalling stretches of Irish football in the Brian Kelly era.

On Wednesday, Notre Dame students will take to the On Wednesday, Notre Dame students will take to the polls and elect their new student body president. A glance at the ballot suggests that this year’s candidates all appear to be human and pro-democracy. This observation may seem obvious or nonsensical, but a look back at the history of SBP elections shows that pro-democracy ideals or even personhood are not characteristic of all candidates.
