Denzel’s latest tackles health policy

Hopefully, your local hospital gives out free health care. Hope Memorial Hospital does not, and one dying little boy doesn’t have time to wait for the medical system to change, and neither does his determined father. John Q. looks at John Quincy Archibald (Denzel Washington), a hard-working factory employee and even harder-working family man, who is having trouble doing either effectively after having his hours trimmed back at work.

Emo sideman hits the country with solo album

Rock ‘n’ roll has taken a turn for the generic, with emo ascending the Top 40 faster than you can say “smells like another Dookie,” but Cub Country has resisted this trend by taking a sharp dive into the South. Not that anyone can blame the band, as Southern influence has expanded outside its borders with the sleeper success of the O Brother, Where Art Thou? soundtrack, which compiled a variety of bluegrass-twinged country tunes.

New Indian film colorful

With the world’s eyes fixed rigidly on the Asian subcontinent, it is quite fascinating to note the powerful contrasts that exist in the region.

Friedrich Nietzsche claimed that all great art emerged from the clash within man between the Apollonian impulse of order and Dionysian impulse of lust. Rock is certainly no exception, but from case to case, one impulse seems to trump the other. After all, rock spans a great range of sounds, from the gentlest folk ballad to the loudest misanthropic metal freakout.

A tale of two Johns

This week has seen some exciting developments in the lives of two distinguished members of the Georgetown community, both named John. The new film John Q. may at first glance be a stirring tale of a man determined to save his son at all costs, but this morality play has a Georgetown connection.

Out with the old, in with the new

The Voice traditionally evaluates the performance of the outgoing Georgetown University Student Association executives by comparing their original campaign goals with their actual accomplishments. For former GUSA President Ryan DuBose (CAS ‘02) and former Vice President Brian Walsh (CAS ‘02), however, this kind of comparison would not provide a completely fair assessment of their administration.
