TCNJ exhibit ‘What Images’ explores the art-making process in a world of digital saturation

By Sandra Abrantes and Natalia Tomczak | Apr. 2

An unintentionally impactful part of the exhibition is that the artist from Iran was unable to display their work. Due to the current war, the artist was unable to communicate with the curators and unable to send their piece. Instead of this, a paper was displayed labeling the artist, Arghavan Heydareslam, and why she was unable to send her video.

Recap of the 2026 Oscars

By Mahnoosh Arsalan | Mar. 29

The ceremony started off with a shocking win, with Amy Madigan receiving the Best Supporting Actress award for her portrayal of Aunt Gladys in “Weapons.” Fans of the film have been shocked since awards season began, not expecting to see Madigan’s name anywhere in the race since the horror genre is hardly ever awarded.

The meteor was so devastating that if the initial explosion, flying debris, widespread fires or earthquakes didn’t eliminate the dinosaurs, the bitter cold that followed, caused by the blocking of the sun’s rays, would have killed any dinosaurs left standing.

Timothée Chalamet angers ballet and opera communities

By Tasnim Oyshi | Mar. 24

“I don't want to be working in ballet, or opera, or, you know, things where it's like, ‘Hey, keep this thing alive, even though, like, no one cares about this anymore,’” he said. “All respect to all the ballet and opera people out there. I just lost 14 cents in viewership. I just took shots for no reason.”

‘The Bride!’: Not what Mary Shelley would’ve wanted

By Mahnoosh Arsalan | Mar. 19

Other than the film being an unsuccessful tribute to the iconic piece of literature, it didn’t send a powerful message. The first half of the movie allowed the audience to expect one overarching message, then the other half of the film switched that message up and left more chaos.

Despite receiving some mixed reviews from critics, the album is still quite impressive. Made up of 12 songs, Styles worked on much of it while living in Berlin instead of in his usual London environment.

The newest Westeros show is far from a fantasy epic: ‘A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms’

By Michael McKee | Mar. 11

The show and the novella it’s based on are centered on the lowly hedge knight Dunk, a young man who came from the impoverished slums of Flea Bottom. He is heading to participate in the Ashford tourney shortly after the death of his master, Ser Arlan of Pennytree, the knight he squired for since boyhood. At the Ashford tourney, Dunk faces money issues, contends with smug, dismissive nobles and meets a precocious, intelligent bald boy named Egg who insists on becoming his squire.

‘Bridgerton’ Season 4 concludes with happy ending, a new mystery

By Tasnim Oyshi | Mar. 10

While the romance in this season is done well, there was a welcome focus on character dynamics, especially between women. Season 4 dissected several relationships between female characters and showed audiences the different ways women interact. The friendship of Lady Danbury and Queen Charlotte, Eloise and Hyacinth’s sisterhood, Lady Penwood’s hatred of Sophie and even the complex ex-friendship between Eloise and Cressida are examined through a nuanced lens.

‘Nothing’s About to Happen to Me’: Mitski is back and better than ever

By Mahnoosh Arsalan | Mar. 4

Introducing the album is “In a Lake,” a peaceful anecdote on the struggles of smalltown life. Mitski’s ability to romanticize a lake as well as big city life is incredible, urging the listeners to leave all their belongings behind and backstroke in a lake for eternity or move to a big city and start over.

Bruno Mars: The voice of love in new album ‘The Romantic’

By Grace Gorsline | Mar. 4

With this new album has also come a new twist on Mars’s style. The incorporation of some aspects of Latin music in “The Romantic” is really what sets this album apart from his previous work, especially in his songs “Risk It All” and “Cha Cha Cha.”
