These terms (they bigger they are the more they were used) say a lot about the rhetorical tenor of our leaders and the fact that rabid nationalism, war-mongering, and unchecked aggression are still quite popular in Washington. Moreover, [...]
I had a pretty unbelievable experience the other night watching the late, great Michelangelo Antonioni’s L’eclisse (1962). I’m not sure how to explain this film, for the actual narrative itself is rather empty. Yet, it becomes immediately clear not five minutes into the film that this emptiness is very much at the core of [...]

I was planning on working on my Italian by sub-titling a short commercial for this post I plan on writing using Mojiti (an online service that allows you to annotate videos on YouTube and other services), when I discovered to my great [...]
I was searching for information about 1980s sitcoms for another post I plan on writing when I came across a pretty phenomenal resource on Wikipedia for anyone interested in the history of U.S. television: a List of United States Network Television Schedules.
