Whit Stillman’s Damsels in Distress is a comedy about a trio of beautiful girls as they set out to revolutionize life at a grungy American university – the dynamic leader Violet Wister (Greta Gerwig), principled Rose (Megalyn Echikunwoke) and sexy Heather (Carrie MacLemore) and is open to the theaters in April 6th. They welcome transfer student Lily (Analeigh Tipton) into their group which seeks to help severely depressed students. Although is a hilarious and bizarre movie it has some break out actors Charlie (Adam Brody), dreamboat Xavier (Hugo Becker) and the mad frat pack of Frank (Ryan Metcalf) and Thor (Billy Magnussen). In some parts of the plot some actors look bored out of their minds and is a little bit disappointing that these people do not exist in real life and I really wish it. They pass the time engaged in empathetic student outreach activity which seems only to serve their own inflated sense of moral superiority. For example, the girls are seen alternating shifts at the campus Suicide Prevention Center where they expend more energies looking down their navels and policing the centre’s free donuts than, you know, preventing suicide.
It’s easy to forgive a movie its flaws when it makes the argument that trying to be an individual and unique is just a monstrous pain when the main character distinctions here are that of naïveté and conscious hypocrisy rather than the self-serving venom of Stillman’s earlier works, which suggests that his perception of modern superficiality is masked by liberal pretence and genuine ignorance. Honestly, I guess as a viewer, I would like to see another movie in which I don’t have to waste my time in fake aristocratic females but for some it reflects the innocence deserted in a teen movie like this.

Madonna and Deadmau5 Dispute
Deadmau5 critiqued Madonna for stating “How many people in this crowd have seen Molly?” appropriating a bit of well-known slang for seeking MDMA. Deadmau5 stated “your a role model for millions”. Madonna responded “I do not support drug use” and clarified that her comment was in fact a reference to the song “Have You Seen Molly” by Cedric Gervais. Deadmau5 responded to the singer’s tweet by “fair enough, i was just voicing my concerns as i usually do. +1 respect for clearing it up personally.”Madonna responds “Communication is always best. You should have called me first, we could have cleared it up privately”. Deadmau5 replies “sure. regardless, just be a little more aware of what you *should* represent at EDM events, and ill watch my mouth.”

Health Reform and 18-Month-Old Violet
The health care reform was necessary for 18-month-old daughter, Violet McManus. Violet suffers from seizures that threaten her breathing. Without health care reform, she would have gotten kicked off her parents’ insurance, because her care is so expensive. Millions of other people, like Violet McManus, stand to lose a lot if all or part of it is reversed. Supreme Court is hearing arguments this week on health care reform law.
