Greg Kinnear's latest movie, Flash of Genius, about the inventor of the intermittent windshield wiper and his battle with the Ford Motor Company, opens Oct. 3.

Frank—best-known for his 2004 best-seller “What’s the Matter with Kansas?”—was promoting his latest book, “The Wrecking Crew: How Conservatives Govern.” He spoke at the Brattle Street Theatre to a lively audience comprised mostly of community members outside the College...
