This experience was a little jolting. After all, I spend a significant amount of time dreading my impending "adulthood," which entails getting a steady job and buying life insurance and wallpaper. As a sophomore I'm already contemplating which fellowships I could get so as to stave off being a grown up for a few more years. Therefore imagine my shock when the participants at this year's annual Harvard Model United Nations (HMUN) conference, only a few years younger than myself, readily treated me like a grown up. I tried to inform them of their gross mistake. I purposefully...

...Allen is lucky that his clever though slight concept is bolstered by actors who breathe an impressive amount of life into their limited characters. Sean Penn gleefully slips into Emmets skin. Stuttering, overconfident and vulnerable, Emmet is a bundle of nervous tics that Penn knows how to make believable. Emmet is, in addition to being a performance artist, a kleptomaniac, pimp and all-around heel, who somehow comes off as a nice guy despite himself.
