Sarah Koff is a woodblock printmaker and environmentalist who lives in the coastal woods of New Hampshire. With a background in natural resources and environmental journalism, her intricate prints tell the stories of her local environment and highlight current environmental issues affecting the region.
Directed by Akiva Schaffer, “The Naked Gun” is the fourth film in the eponymous franchise inspired by the spoof 1980s TV show “Police Squad.” Liam Neeson stars as Lieutenant Frank Drebin Jr. of the Los Angeles Police Department, the son of Leslie Nielsen’s original detective protagonist from the preceding trilogy. Styled after classic film noirs, the plot follows a murder investigation that gradually reveals a greater conspiracy. Pamela Anderson costars as Beth Davenport, a crime novelist and sister of the murdered man.
When I sat down to watch the latest film set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I felt long detached from it. Though once a diehard fan, I lost interest in following the convoluted multiversal plotlines, multiple miniseries and hosts of new characters following “Avengers: Endgame.” However, “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” — a standalone film within the MCU — boasts a unique aesthetic, some good acting and strong themes despite featuring plenty of the typical “Marvel-isms.”
On July 28, Polish filmmaker Anna Zamecka visited Dartmouth College for a special screening of her film “Communion” at Loew Auditorium followed by a talkback. Known for blending documentary and fiction in her work, Zamecka achieved remarkable international success with her first feature film, “Communion,” which premiered at the Locarno Film Festival in 2016.
On July 27, the signature opening vocals to Big Time Rush’s titular single resounded through the amphitheater at BankNH Pavilion in Gilford, N.H., announcing the familiar sound of a 2010s boy band. The venue was packed with Gen Z and millenials alike, all of whom were in attendance to reminisce on the days of Nickelodeon when boy bands just made sense.
A wide range of people will likely despise the new film “Eddington,” for myriad reasons. Perhaps some will be offended by the film’s lampooning of self-righteous antiracist activists. Others might feel targeted by the depiction of its deranged far-right conspiracy theorist characters. Many others will be put off by the film’s tonal twists and turns — particularly in the absurdist, hyperviolent third act. Then there are the great many people who might be reluctant to revisit 2020 in a film at all, regardless of the context. But for those who are open-minded and able to laugh at themselves, “Eddington” is a thrilling and hilarious satire that will amuse, provoke and shock in equal measure.
If you're not familiar with the Dartmouth performing arts scene — particularly campus dance and a cappella groups — they often perform during the term on week nights at Greek houses.
At the northwestern corner of San Francisco, you can look out to the Pacific and see the stump of a lighthouse about a mile from land, built in the early 1900s after a steamer ship was wrecked in the fog. Now partly dismantled, Mile Rocks Lighthouse has long worked in my imagination.
Webster Avenue was unrecognizable on July 19. The usual quiet sidewalks and parked bikes were replaced with laughter, thumping bass and a crowd of Dartmouth students, locals and visiting families reveling in the glorious chaos of Dartmouth Streetfest during Family Weekend.
“Call it a combination of keen attention and ‘a profound indifference’ (to borrow Camus’s words) or a combination of intense emotion and an equally intense apathy. The fact is, there is no word for this state I’ve found myself in, in which lucidity and opacity are one and the same.”
Written and directed by James Gunn, “Superman” serves as the launchpad of the DC Universe, a new franchise that overhauls the most recent batch of films based on DC Comics characters. Introducing this new universe, the opening text explains that “metahumans” were discovered over three centuries ago, ushering in an era of superpowered beings. Wisely avoiding retelling the titular character’s well-known origin story, Gunn dives headfirst into action: Superman (David Corenswet) crash-lands somewhere in the Arctic, battered and bleeding after losing his first battle.
Mindy Kaling ’01 is rewriting the script on what a college theater space can be. In June 2025, the award-winning writer, actress and producer donated a gift to fund the Mindy Kaling Theater Lab, which will be located in the newly renovated lower level of the Hopkins Center for the Arts adjacent to the Warner Bentley Theater.
A group of Dartmouth students is putting up an original piece of theater called “Be the Boy” at The Tank in New York City next month. The performance is part of the LimeFest theater festival for emerging artists.
At a school full of traditions like Dartmouth, it’s no surprise that sophomore summer — a quintessential Dartmouth experience — contains many of its own. For one, the opportunity to join a summer performance group is a highly anticipated part of many students’ Dartmouth experience. Dance, a capella and comedy groups all host open auditions for students on campus and welcome dozens of new members for the term. For existing members of full-year groups, the chance to perform in a new ensemble allows them to explore new artistic styles and expand their creative boundaries.
“28 Years Later” is the daring third installment in the post-apocalyptic horror franchise that includes “28 Days Later” and “28 Weeks Later.” The film sees the reunion of director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland, who collaborated on the original “28 Days Later” as well as the sci-fi thriller “Sunshine.”
Maybe you’ve seen them on your TikTok feed, dancing like the animations from Phineas and Ferb or dressing up as the Winx Club fairies for Halloween. Or maybe you’ve seen them competing on the hit Netflix talent competition reality show “Debut: The Dream Academy,” in which they tackled building full performances from scratch in just a few days.

Rays of pale red and blue light filter through the room and onto the audience’s faces. The sounds of murmurs and hushed conversations sweep throughout the crowd. On the stage, the band untangles the wires of their instruments. The crowd quiets as the band begins to play. At the forefront of this scene is Sylvie Benson ’25, a singer-songwriter and guitarist who has made a major mark on campus music during her four years at the College.
