Reading Time: 2 minutes Revisiting this film time and again has never disappointed me, ever. Wes Anderson’s The Royal Tenenbaums is easily my favorite movie of all time — reason being the quirky characters. Anderson picked a stellar cast, including Gene Hackman as Royal Tenenbaum, Luke Wilson as Richie Tenenbaum, Gwyneth Paltrow as Margot Tenenbaum, and Ben Stiller as Chas Tenenbaum, just to name a few.

Reading Time: < 1 minute In 2008 one of the most amazing vampire movies ever made was released. The film, of course, is the Norwegian production “Let The Right One In.” The film is so beautifully filmed, directed, written, photographed, and acted that it could be watched every day for a month and still be needed.

Reading Time: < 1 minute Milk, easily one of the best films of the year, tells the story of gay people fighting for the exact same civil rights that the blacks fought for just one decade earlier. It doesn’t matter where you stand on Proposition 8 or same-sex marriage: Milk is made for anyone who values equality.

Reading Time: < 1 minute The very entertaining classic “The Music Man” is playing at the Egyptian Theatre in Park City. This play is not to be missed if you want to see something funny that has great production values. Harold Hill, played by Mark R. Gollaher, is a terrific actor, hindered only by his spitting while talking, so watch out first row.

Reading Time: < 1 minute With finals just around the corner, students, including myself, are finding ourselves more and more stressed with last minute projects, papers, tests and assignments. Sounds like the end of the semester is nearing! On top of all the multitasking that comes with school during finals week, we are also balancing jobs, social lives, and dating lives.

Reading Time: 2 minutes Most students wait until after graduating to put mass amounts of time, effort and work into huge career building projects. For UVU senior Jonathan Martin, this is not the mold he’s going to follow. Last summer, Martin took a small crew to Europe, Canada and across the U.

Reading Time: 4 minutes The sci-fi odyssey Dune, based on the novel by Frank Herbert, has garnered acclaim from respected critics and nerds alike since its release in 1984. Whether the success is because of a groundbreaking score by Brian Eno and the band Toto (seriously), the cult following for anything director David Lynch does, or the overall brilliance of the story itself, Dune is a film that should be watched by everyone at least twice a year and on birthdays.

Reading Time: 3 minutes I’m hovering in your classes. I’m watching you on the computer and stalking you through the halls. I lurk under chairs and windows and desks, waiting. Waiting for you to lower your guard — waiting for the perfect time to strike. I am the flu. Many people mistake the flu for a cold.

Reading Time: 2 minutes Food, football and family are all common descriptions of Thanksgiving. One word that is usually excluded from this list is money. With costs rising as the economy is dwindling, this year’s Thanksgiving festivities may come up short. Fear not: Here is a Thanksgiving dinner for four that can be made with less than twenty dollars.
