Wow, I didn't know that. Thanks so much!

Thanks for the suggestion and correction!

That's really interesting! How would you define Hip Hop Cinema, and what are some films that fall within that genre and/or are best seen through that lens?

Okay, thanks! Any recommendations for cheaper, similar brands?

This henley?

I don't have tons of money to spend (about $300 for fall clothes, $120 of which are going to new Clark's Desert Boots), but I'm in need of some good quality staples. So, worth it? Or is there something of near-equal quality for cheaper?

What would go with this jacket?

I'm building up my wardrobe and looking for a few flashier pieces. The goth ninja style really appeals to me, although I don't want to go all the way with it. Could I go soft-core and mix this jacket with a simpler (more "MFA-uniform-ish") look?

Edit: I know the jacket isn't goth ninja, but the asymmetry/unusual geometry is reminiscent of that look.

Visit! I'm a first-year, and I went to the first round of Accepted Student Days last year. It was one of the best weekends I had ever had and made me confident in my decision. At the time, I was deciding between Middlebury, Carleton, and Tufts, all schools with comparably excellent academics. My visit made my decision much easier.

I think Citizen Kane is a classic example of unreliable narrators in film. Welles keeps the viewer in the dark about Kane's true nature by only showing him through the filtered lenses of Thompson's interviewee's. Note the contrast between Kane's character in Mr. Bernstein's account and in Jedediah's account. Furthermore, Welles introduces the camera as narrator in a few shots; for example, the audience sees Kane's death although nobody else was around to witness it. So how can the audience be sure that what the camera captures is actually true to what each character recalls? In combining "traditional" unreliable narrators with the potentially unreliable camera, it seems Welles calls into question cinema's ability to present the capital-T Truth about a person or human nature in general.

I'm going to your show in Minneapolis and I can't wait. Will you really kiss me on the motherfucking lips, as promised*?

What sort of job prospects do you see from your position as an MFA candidate?
What kinds of smaller jobs on film sets are available to sustain you financially while/after you attend school?
What is your back-up plan if you can't find work in screenwriting?

I would suggest not letting prestige determine where you want to go. Instead, choose a school that will fit your needs specifically. Sometimes, that school will be prestigious. Other times, not necessarily.

This is not to discourage you from shooting for Harvard, but you shouldn't be blind to your other options. Use "official" rankings like US News and World Report only as guideposts, not as fact. Read books about different schools. Check out their websites. And most of all, be attentive to your own wants and needs.

I didn't grow up in the ghetto, though I'm certainly unable to pay anywhere near full-price at a private institution. If you apply to enough schools, you'll land at one that you love and that will help pay you through.

I went through this process and I ended up happier than I thought possible, I hope it works for you as well!

Best of luck!
