Pete’s Film Journal: Election Season Cinema with Civil War and Transit by Peter Sarsfield

Civil War   If you’ve seen some of the news lately, you’ve likely been informed about an election this fall.

Pete’s Film Journal: Why You Should Watch More International Films by Peter Sarsfield

Al Pacino stumbled in to quickly deliver Best Picture in a manner so truncated I can only appreciate it, and it wasn’t his fault.

His savantish nature yields gorgeous harmonies and a fullness in his music that I believe few others can reach. However, I think his new album is too much for me. I’m […]

Discussing “Eastward of Eden” with Amelia Day by Parker Smith

More than many schools, Vanderbilt is peppered with artists of all colors, from the technical musicians of Blair to the singer-songwriters of the Music Room.

But don’t worry, because I have just the playlist you need in order to fully enact those feels.   This playlist is perfectly curated to make sure that you feel both nostalgic and inspired.
