"What we can learn from James Bond." Opinions Column, The Brown Daily Herald, 18 November 2008.
This column was, by far, the most enjoyable to write of anything I did this semester. As some may know, I'm an unabashed fan of the James Bond films, and I was looking for a way to exercise my comprehensive knowledge of the series. People seemed to enjoy it, so I don't think it was too masturbatory. This column really made me want to do more arts-based opinion writing-- I think art is something that really needs to be more common in American editorial pages.
One life lesson -- about relationships-- didn't make it into the final piece. While it would have been nice to include something that at least attempted to talk about James Bond's portrayal of women and relationships, it didn't ring true, and I was out of space anyway. I suppose that could be a whole other thing in itself...
