    The Dating Game

    How well do you know Sean Lowe? Take The Bachelor tell-all quiz!

    Jennifer Chininis
    Feb 20, 2013 | 1:19 am

    In The Bachelor tell-all, host Chris Harrison asks hunky Dallas guy Sean Lowe about the girls he let go — and a couple of the final three. (Overnight dates in Thailand up next!) At one point Sean confesses, “Being the bachelor is not easy. In fact, it’s really hard sometimes. You have to walk away from your life for months. It just got to a point where I thought, is it all for naught?”

    So how well do you know Sean Lowe? See if you can match the statement to the bachelorette or the sticky situation.

    A. “It took everything in me just to basically control my emotion.”

    B. “I think I would be lying to myself if I said her brother didn’t influence me a little bit. I’m not sure I want this guy as my brother-in-law.”

    C. “The kiss, I felt no passion behind it, and I knew in that moment this isn’t the woman I’m going to marry. I didn’t have those feelings of love for her. And I just couldn’t keep her around if I knew that.”

    D. “I fully appreciated the gesture. And I know how huge that was for her to do on national television for the world to see. But I had already come to the conclusion that she was probably not going to be my wife.”

    E. “Had she said I love you, it could have been a game changer.”

    F. “I couldn’t have imagined any of that going on when I was on The Bachelorette with the guys.”

    G. “She’s not suited for this show. She doesn’t know how to handle herself in this environment. She’s a woman that simply can’t get along with her peers.”

    H. “She made a grand entrance, but probably came on a little too strong.”

    I. “She’s a little odd. But I dig that about her.”

    J. “I gotta say, she does a better Chris Harrison than Chris Harrison.”

    K. “I say, it’s really none of your business.”

    Answers

    A. In response to Desiree’s brother Nate, who bullied Sean on the hometown date

    B. Desiree

    C. Sarah

    D. Selma, who finally decided to kiss Sean on TV

    E. Lesley

    F. About the fight between AshLee and Tierra in St. Croix

    G. Tierra

    H. Ashley P., lover of 50 Shades of Grey

    I. Catherine

    J. Daniella

    K. When asked about getting physical on the overnight dates.

    "She never should have been on the show," Sean says of Tierra.

    Movie Review

    War is hell takes on new meaning in intensely personal film Warfare

    Cast of Warfare

    At this point in movie history, there are precious few ways to make a war film feel original. Every major American war, including the most recent ones in Iraq and Afghanistan, has been covered, and the “war is hell” idea has been featured in too many films to count. So for a film like the new Warfare to stand out, it needs to do something that other war films have not.

    To say that it accomplishes that goal is an understatement. Set in Iraq in 2006, it follows a platoon of soldiers tasked with helping to gain control of the city of Ramadi, a hotbed of activity in the war at that time. But this is not a story of good triumphing over evil, nor one that tries to examine exactly what the U.S. military was trying to accomplish in the war. Instead, it’s just a story of a group of young men trying to do the job they’re asked to do, and what happens to them during that mission.

    It presents as fact, with no judgment either way, that one squad of the platoon overtakes the home of two Iraqi families as part of the mission. An ensuing firefight pins the soldiers down with almost no way to escape, and subsequent rescue attempts by other squads result in multiple casualties. The bulk of the film focuses on how the shell-shocked and injured soldiers react to the situation in which they find themselves.

    Written and directed by Alex Garland (Civil War) and Ray Mendoza, the film is based on the memories of Mendoza and his fellow soldiers of this exact situation they experienced. As such, the film does not attempt to add extra drama or even emphasize one character over another. In fact, the first 30-40 minutes of the film are relatively boring, as the squad relays information about their position to other, unseen people.

    The men in the platoon are not exactly interchangeable with each other, but the way the film is structured, they’re essentially equals. It’s easy to tell who the leaders are, but those giving orders are not treated as more important to the film than those carrying them out. This is especially true when things go to hell, as each person goes from trying to fight to trying to survive, with their training coming into play in different ways.

    The situation depicted in the film is somewhat mundane - it’s not some big battle or a turning point in the war - but the intensity with which Garland and Mendoza stage it makes it enormously impactful. They put the audience right in the thick of the carnage, and the horrific injuries inflicted on some of the men, as well as the seemingly never-ending screams of pain emanating from them, can be difficult to take.

    The cast features a few actors who are starting to make names for themselves (Will Poulter, Joseph Quinn, Noah Centineo, Charles Melton, Michael Gandolfini), others who’ve had smaller impacts (D’Pharoah Woon-A-Tai, Cosmo Jarvis, Evan Holtzman), and plenty of others who have yet to get their big breaks. Each of them does their job extremely well, which in this case means that they complement each other’s performances, with none of them overshadowing the others.

    Warfare is not an overtly political film, and yet the politics of war are inextricable from the story it tells. Neither anti-war nor pro-war, it simply lays out the facts of one individual mission in a larger conflict, and each viewer will likely take away something different from the experience of watching it.

    Warfare is now playing in theaters.
