Insensitive Movie Review

To the Editor:

In last Thursday's issue (The Dartmouth, Feb. 12), I found a movie review to be completely insensitive to a certain segment of people. The article was titled "U.S. beats the Red Army and wins gold again in 'Miracle.'" It was written by Adam White '05, and I found that he spent more time writing about his irrelevant observations of the members of the audience then on the quality of the acutal movie himself.

Being that I have ADHD, I find the following comments especially insulting:

"Their collective ADHD was undoubtedly amplified by copious amounts of Coca-Cola, Sour Patch Kids and the fact that we were attending the film on an "Aderol-free Sunday."

Aside from these insensitive remarks, I find the article to be a mockery of movie reviews, and I did not read it to hear about how he almost got into a fight with fifth graders. Just bringing this to your attention.
