Misleading: This book is actually just a re-title of Another Bull... Night In .... CityBy EsmyReelnaymI took one for the team here. If you click on the copy of the cover you can see it enlarged to show the small line Previously published as "Another Bull... Night in .... City." No updates or edits since the last publication. The book is great, by the way. Go read those reviews on the other Nick Flynn page ( has twice rejected this review, presumably because of the original profane title of the book... it was rejected even after I Greeked the text). I'm not sure that is doing the right thing by not putting this info in the forefront. Hopefully they'll make changes to this page which will make it more evident.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Being FlynnBy Pamela I. PerkinsI had read three of Nick Flynn's books and attended two talks in Houston, so when I heard that the movie starring DeNiro was based on his memoir, which I had not read, I read it immediately. It rounded out my understanding of him and much of his writing. Interesting!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

This "stunningly beautiful memoir" (San Francisco Chronicle) is now a major motion picture starring Robert De Niro and Paul Dano. A Focus Features production, Nick Flynnrsquo;s moving memoir of his relationship with his father is directed by Paul Weitz, whose films include About a Boy and Little Fockers. ldquo;Told with energy, critical reflection and sensitivity, Another Bullshit Night in Suck City is less a memoir than a study of one of Americarsquo;s darker conundrums: homelessness. [It suggests] Lear, Beckett, Faulkner, Genet and forc[es] us to decide which is more painful: a parentrsquo;s lost dreams or a childrsquo;s lost innocence.rdquo; - Los Angeles Times Book ldquo;A potent, distinctive autobiography. Flynnrsquo;s talents are considerable?he has a compelling voice and a wry sense of humor, especially about himself.rdquo; - New York Times Book ldquo;The prose swirls in graceful arcs that frequently rise to the level of poetry, leavened by mordant humor. A powerful tale, stylishly told.rdquo; - Washington PostAbout the AuthorNick Flynn is the author of Another Bullshit Night in Suck City, winner of the PEN/Martha Albrand Award, and The Ticking Is the Bomb. He divides his time between Houston and Brooklyn.

CLAREMONT McKENNA COLLEGE FILM REVIEW AGGREGATORS AND THEIR EFFECT ON SUSTAINED BOX OFFICE PERFORMANCE SUBMITTED TO PROFESSOR DARREN FILSON AND DEAN GREGORY HESS BY NICHOLAS KRISHNAMURTHY FOR SENIOR THESIS FALL / 2011 November 28, 2011 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my parents for their constant support of my academic and career endeavors, my brother for his advice throughout college, and my friends for always helping to keep things in perspective. I would also like to thank Professor Filson for his help and support during the development and execution of this thesis. Abstract This thesis will discuss the emerging influence of film review aggregators and their effect on the changing landscape for reviews in the film industry. Specifically, this study will look at the top 150 domestic grossing films of 2010 to empirically study the effects of two specific review aggregators. A time-delayed approach to regression analysis is used to measure the influencing effects of these aggregators in the long run. Subsequently, other factors crucial to predicting film success are also analyzed in the context of sustained earnings.

  • Guess the Movie - Linking Facebook Pages to Imdb Movies
    Guess the movie - Linking Facebook pages to IMDb movies Paolo Fornacciari1, Barbara Guidi2, Monica Mordonini1, Jacopo Orlandini1, Laura Sani1, and Michele Tomaiuolo1 1 Dipartimento di Ingegneria e Architettura - Universit`adi Parma (Italy) 2 Dipartimento di Informatica - Universit`adi Pisa (Italy) Abstract. In Facebook, the set of pages liked by some users represents an important knowledge about their real life tastes. However, the process of classification, which is already hard when dealing with dozens of classes and genres, is made even more difficult by the very coarse information of Facebook pages. Our work originates from a large dataset of pages liked by users of a Facebook app. To overcome the limitations of multilabel automatic classification of free-form user-generated pages, we acquire data also from IMDb, a large public database about movies. We use it to associate with high accuracy a given cinema-related page on Facebook to the corresponding record on IMDb, which includes plenty of metadata in addition to genres. To this aim, we compare different approaches. The obtained results demonstrate that the highest accuracy is obtained by the combined use of different methods and metrics. Keywords: Online Social Networks, Data Mining, Information Retrieval, Text Similarity 1 Introduction Nowadays, Online Social Networks (OSNs) are the most popular applications in Internet. They changed the way of how people communicate and interact. Struc- tural properties of OSNs and, in particular, understanding users' behavior when they connect to OSNs is crucial for designing user-centered systems. In particu- lar, analysing every aspect of the online social life of users, we could be able to build a kind of system, as a distributed system [9], to model a current Online Social Network, as Facebook.
