This Friday, Madison will see its first Veterans' Day parade in over 15 years, as the culminating event of 'Soldier Appreciation Week,' an event initiated by Associated Students of Madison's Support the Troops Campaign.
'2046,' the latest film from Chinese author Wong Kar-Wai, is intricately woven, gorgeously filmed, and innovatively structured. Unfortunately, it leads its audience not to care about anything happening onscreen. Worse yet, this film could have been brilliant had Kar-Wai not prevented a little thing called 'humanity' from even making a guest appearance in this oftentimes suffocating intellectual endeavor.
In a season that could have been an absolute disaster after losing so many key players to the NFL and then more players to injury, Barry Alvarez and the No. 19 Badgers (5-2 Big Ten, 8-2 overall) have somehow found a way to overcome adversity and put together a successful season. Quite the fitting finish for a coach that has done incredible things for the program, and the irony of finishing off the Big Ten season against Penn State and Iowa is not lost on him.

The most important aspect of 'Prime' is its previews do it little justice. Until the movie is actually viewed, Meryl Streep and Uma Thurman seem an unlikely pair, Bryan Greenberg is just that hot guy from 'One Tree Hill,' and the plot appears so shamefully predictable that lovers of the chick flick all over the country could predict the ending in the first 10 minutes.
