Love and attention

Ellie Konfrst | Tuesday, April 5, 2022

I’m not very good at settling on a favorite anything, but when people ask me what my favorite movie is, I usually tell them 2017’s “Lady Bird.” It’s a pretty basic answer for a twentysomething white woman, but I tell anyone who will listen that my favorite artist is Taylor Swift, so it’s not like

‘Lady Bird’ Review

Brian Boylen | Friday, December 1, 2017

The diversity of human experience is vast, yet there is a fundamental commonality that binds us all. “Lady Bird” taps into this notion, and is able to perform the impressive act of crafting a universally appealing story by focusing on specific people, in a specific place, at a specific point in time.

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.
