Review: ‘One Battle After Another’ is the best movie of 2025
(10/03/25 6:05am)
From the pseudo-gothic “Phantom Thread” to the contained “Punch-Drunk Love,” all Paul Thomas Anderson films tend to center complex interpersonal dynamics. One of the most prolific and acclaimed directors working today, his plots range from coming-of-age films like “Licorice Pizza” to historical thrillers like “There Will Be Blood” and experimental cult classics like “Magnolia.” Besides his tendency to work with the same actors and to set his films in California, one can identify Anderson film by its use of tracking and extended shots alongside bold soundtracks and sweeping establishing frames. At their core, however, his films investigate what brings and keeps people together — and “One Battle After Another” is no exception.

(09/29/25 6:04am)
The date September 11, 2001, is seared in America’s national memory as a day of collective grief and profound horror. Yet it is within this context of national tragedy that Canadian couple Irene Sankoff and David Hein’s hit musical “Come From Away” tells a true story of universal compassion. The Tony-nominated musical has made its way to White River Junction’s very own Northern Stage.

English professor Peter Orner on his new book ‘The Gossip Columnist’s Daughter’
(09/26/25 6:00am)
In August, professor of English and creative writing Peter Orner published a new historical fiction novel, “The Gossip Columnist’s Daughter.” The story follows Jed Rosenthal, a struggling writer who grows obsessed with the murder of starlet Karyn Kupcinet — a real-life incident. Combining historical fact and fictional characters, Orner creates what The New York Times called “a moody and engrossing meditation on the ephemerality of memory, the persistence of family myths and a haunting ode to a bygone Chicago.” On Nov. 4, the new creative writing campus space Literary Arts Bridge will be hosting a reading and conversation about the novel with Orner and the cartoonist Liniers. The Dartmouth sat down with Orner to discuss his inspiration and writing process for the novel.

Delulu, Rizz, Skibidi: When jokes become language
(08/22/25 8:05am)
For international students like me, the Cambridge Dictionary isn’t just helpful for essay writing. It’s also a survival tool during dining-hall conversations and the occasional lost-in-translation group chat. Sure, it can help polish grammar and untangle obscure terms in class readings. But dig a little deeper and you’ll find something else entirely: words straight from the internet, slang that feels miles away from anything academic and is surprisingly similar to what your younger siblings are probably texting right now.
