This is an AMAZING record. One of the top 10 albums of 2015. I've missed D'angelo for sure. Super funky album! Sticks with you. You want this album on your iPod.
"“Black Messiah” is a knotty, inward-looking, musicianly album made to reveal itself slowly. It doesn’t leap out of speakers; it oozes and bubbles, waiting for a listener to be drawn in. As it does, the pleasures and rewards keep growing."

I loved this film when I saw it in theatres. The scenery is gorgeous and of course add in the very funny Rob Brydon and Steve Coogan and you have a winning film.
Recommend Highly!

I'm hooked on the Gilmore Girls. The writing is so incredible on this show. Not at all sappy or sugar-coated. Awesome writing, awesome direction, awesome characters. Great acting by Lauren Graham, Alexis Bledal, Melissa McCarthy and the great Kelly Bishop.I'm hooked on the Gilmore Girls. The writing is so incredible on this show. Not at all sappy or sugar-coated.

This is a great film. Bill Murray plays Don Johnston and has that perfect mix of melancholy and mischief.
Sharon Stone, Julie Delpy, Frances Conroy, Jessica Lange and the amazing Tilda Swinton are the former flames of Don Johnston.

I loved this film. The story, direction and acting are great.
“Are you always this happy?” Rodolfo asks Gloria, shortly after catching her eye. They are at a nightclub where middle-aged residents of Santiago, Chile, dance and flirt, and where Gloria, in her 50s and long divorced, occasionally goes to attract the attention of a silver-haired Romeo. Rodolfo, who has a kind, crumpled face and a winningly uncertain manner, makes Gloria laugh with this pickup line. No, she says, sometimes in the mornings she is sad, and in the afternoons, too. The great accomplishment of “Gloria,” the Chilean writer-director Sebastián Lelio’s astute, unpretentious and thrillingly humane new film, is that it acknowledges both sides of its heroine’s temperament without judgment or sentimentality. In a North American movie — a fizzy Hollywood comedy of empowerment or a glum indie kitchen-sink melodrama — a woman like Gloria would most likely invite either pity or condescending encouragement. But Gloria, played with dignity and gusto by Paulina García, is too complicated for such treatment. — A. O. ScottI loved this film. The story, direction and acting are great.

Agree with Commercesd: the book goes into depth on an interesting shift that is taking place in society right now.
Eric Klinenberg also describes a fascinating point in the book that stuck with me: university students are entering school completely bypassing dorm units and requesting living quarters for singles. Schools are responding by building more single units on their campuses. Super interesting.
