Movies we recommend

It's been slow-mo for us here at the W!NK offices (whenever journalism, student gov't, yearbook, or spacl isn't using it). For the information you want and need about deadlines, submissions, etc., contact us whswink@gmail.com

Since W!NK is about the love of the arts and culture, we compiled a little list of upcoming movies that we think rule and recommend for this upcoming "I need to get out of the house and away from my boring cousins from Iowa" holiday season. Enjoy!


#1 The Darjeeling Limited
Family. Failure. Quirky one-liners. And hero Max Fischer. What would imaginative outsiders do without Wes Anderson?

#2 Across the Universe
HAVE YOU BEEN WAITING FOREVER TO SEE THIS MOVIE TOO? This movie has Beatles classics sung by 70's Vietnam protesters and free love lovers. Who has ever recorded a good Beatles cover? Well, if the covers are performed in a gigantic movie-musical production with a lot of eye candy...
#3 Once
Wouldn't your day be a whole lot better if you met a musician on the street and then you make sweet, melodic, wonderful music together??? Wouldn't it rule some more if you sang and played the piano WHILE you were looking adorable in a cute hippie skirt/boy blazer outfit???
So we hope you've enjoyed this little edition of "W!NK things you should try." Be sure to come back next time, when we wax poetic on the best cheese balls found in Oregon
