Interview: Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet and cast of 'Eternal Sunshine'

By Dan Zak · Thursday, March 18, 2004

The question is not why did they do it, but why didn't they do it sooner? After all, it seems like a perfect fit. The elastic comic star of Hollywood plays the lead role in a film by the resident genius screenwriter of un-Hollywood fare. Charlie Kaufman has created memorable roles which have drawn masterful, divergent performances from Cage and Cusack, so why not from Carrey?

The Rusty Nail

By L. Russel Allen IV | March 4

I - and I assume many of my readers are in the same boat with me on this one - am finding it almost impossible to generate a comprehensive thought. Being in the middle of studying for mid-terms and spring break being so tantalizingly close, the idea of writing a column has just destroyed my will to live.

Sex and Sensibility

By Allison Weil | March 4

There's a particular boy I've had a crush on since I came to AU. I will not tell his name because, to be honest, I don't know it. I've been introduced to him only once, and when we spoke, I couldn't find the words to show him how interested I was.

March 4

D.C.'s music scene has bred a number of sounds over the past 20 years. From the straight-edge hardcore of Minor Threat to the Dismemberment Plan's impossible-to-pigeonhole indie rock, the District's grounds have given life to hundreds of bands and possibly even more genres.

When in Rome

By Blair Payne | March 1

"Sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite." I know my mother told it to me each night before bed until I was about six years old. I used to lie in bed imagining big red and blue bugs crawling underneath my sheets. After waking up with about a dozen tiny bites all over my arms, I think it's safe to say that bed bugs aren't the gigantic, colorful creatures I once imagined them to be. Instead, they're probably closer to a miniscule size, and probably aren't a cool color like red.

'Punk Rock Show' a staple of WVAU

By David Hodges | March 1

Ross Senack should write a book about multitasking. As he adjusts the setting on his soundboard, writes seven instant messages in a chat room with 32 people, changes two CDs, speaks into a microphone and interviews The Early November (a punk band), he also answers questions from The Eagle. It is in this hectic atmosphere that SOC senior Senack (also known as DJ Rossstar) plays two hours of punk music every Wednesday night from 6 to 8 p.m.

Clear Channel: In control of the airwaves

By Neal Fersko | March 1

In the 1950s, radio was considered a wild frontier that could make or break up-and-coming regional talent. Frequencies carried stations across the barren airwaves that stretched through state lines and time zones. People like Cleveland disc jockey Alan Freed could go wild and play a Little Richard record over a dozen times in a row with only his station manager to answer to.
