COURTESY PHOTO (From Left to Right) UNH alumni Elliot “Funk Tous” Tousely and Anthony “Jiggy Tone” Fiel are hitting the seacoast music scene with their hip-hop duo Jig and Funk.

Movies: “Room”

Since it’s release in mid-October, “Room” has received numerous awards and nomina- tions, including four Oscar-nods and a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Motion Picture- Drama (to leading woman, Brie Larson). Not for the faint of heart, the almost two-hour movie-going experience is an emotional one, but well worth it. The heartbreaking story of a young woman abducted and forced to live in a roughly nished shed is balanced by the innocence of her ve-year-old son, Jack (Jacob Tremblay), whose entire world consists of “Room.” While the lm’s premise may seem grim, viewers are grati ed by the beauty and wonder of watching Jack experience the world for the rst time. “Room” is de nitely worth the price of a ticket to see it in theaters, but you might want to grab a few extra napkins with your popcorn before sitting down to watch this tearjerker.

Music: “Tell Me I’m Pretty” – Cage the Elephant

Cage the Elephant’s fourth and most recent album sticks to the band’s signature vibe but tones down the raw en- ergy of some of their previous hits. While none of the new tracks could get you as amped as an old favorite like 2009’s “Ain’t No Rest For the Wicked,” the album still packs the grungy, Southern-rock feel fans look for in bands like Cage the Elephant and The Black Keys. Incidentally, the more mellow feel of this new album has been attributed in some reviews to producer Dan Auerbach, vocalist and guitarist for The Black Keys, as his band went through similar changes with their most recent album. Maybe too mellow for a party or a gym-sesh, “Tell Me I’m Pretty” falls some- where between the realm of exciting homework music and road trip soundtracks.

Food: Slow Cookers

Nothing beats a crock-pot. For those who live o campus and away from the comforting bubble of unlimited dining, the struggle to nd time to make dinner can be REAL. High-end slow cookers can be pricey, but a small crock-pot is all a college student needs and is usually under $20 at Walmart or Target. Pop some chili, pulled pork or stew in your slow-cooker (or check out this weeks TNH Test Kitchen for our Slow-Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken) and let the magic happen. A few hours and virtually zero e ort later, you’ll have yourself a delicious meal. Plus, while you’re waiting for your dinner to be done, you’ll have plenty of time to nish your homework and hit the gym (aka: binge-watch an entire season of “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”).
