On Monday, Notre Dame will host its annual forum at the stadium. Because of this year’s theme is war and peace, Notre Dame has made its keynote event a presentation from the Theater of War Productions — specifically, their project The “Suppliants” Project: Ukraine. Theater of War Productions uses ancient texts to draw attention to

Season two of “Emily in Paris” dropped late last month, following a polarized response to the first season and two controversial nominations at last year’s Golden Globes. The show was widely criticized for its stereotypical portrayal of the French, cliché writing and a vapid, entitled “Mary Sue” protagonist. Despite these critiques, “Emily in Paris” remains

Editor’s Notes is a bi-weekly column from Scene Editor Ryan Israel. It is about whatever music, movie, television series, celebrity or trend he’s into at the moment. Don’t talk to me unless you want to talk about Anya Taylor-Joy It appears that Anya Taylor-Joy is built differently. Mere days before the Golden Globes, where she

I watched Chloé Zhao’s “Nomadland” on my laptop. It is an ugly sight — a Samsung I’ve had since my freshman year of high school that can no longer even be described as stainless steel, due to a variety of brown and silver splotches I’ve so graciously adorned it with.

Northern Italy in the summer of 1983, a teenage prodigy transcribing classical music, a doctoral student studying sculpture and Heraclitus, late night swims in the ocean, excursions to Rome, an apricot orchard, too much time to fill and too little to fill it with. It sounds like a recipe for apathy, weariness and unconcern —

“Phantom Thread” doesn’t try to wow. Outwardly, it is timid, unambitious and introverted. It’s a film about a world-renowned dressmaker at the center of the fashion world in post-war England and his inability to love — or at least love properly.

“Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri” is the Golden Globe winning crime drama that proves to be much more than a simple story. Written and directed by Martin McDonagh, the picture offers a look at rural America and the problems that plague it. While the movie features accomplished actors and an interesting perspective, the plot has

Woman after woman filed down the red carpet, each clad defiantly in black. #TimesUp pins on lapels glinted under the glare of paparazzi flashes. Activists such as Tarana Burke, Marai Larasi, Rosa Clemente, Ai-jen Poo, Billie Jean King and many more mingled with the regular Hollywood crowd on the red carpet and in the glitzy

The 75th Annual Golden Globes, which aired on Jan. 7, were marked by a powerful display of support for the Time’s Up movement against sexual assault and harassment. Allegations of sexual abuse by producer Harvey Weinstein, which first surfaced in October of 2017, have since shed light on the epidemic of abuse in Hollywood, with
