Why exactly is there a review of a movie that came out in 1971 when both dance and theatre had shows, (Sankofa and The Cover of Life). Great job to The Stylus once again.

As an alum of SUNY Brockport and a a former editor at The Stylus, I can tell you that the college paper is a wonderful place for future writers to gain experience and take the opportunity to write many different types of stories. Reviews of movies that are popular among college students run the gamet from recent movies to older, thought provoking films like Clockwork Orange. The review has its place in a college paper. Of course, so do reviews of local campus events, but to link the two defeats the purpose of the college paper.

Kudos for the review of Clockwork Orange, but to the ediotrs of The Stylus, don't forget your campus activities as well! Good luck!

I have to agree with the first person. I like reading the stylus reviews, but this has absolutely no relevance now. It isn't even a tribute type article, just a guess-what-I'm-smart-because-I've-heard-of-this-and-you-probably-haven't article. Loved the movie, hated the article.
