here was bloodshed on the battlefields of the Civil War and there was bloodshed on the homefront of two families: the Hatfields and the McCoys.
The epic feud, which began in 1865 and was filled with murder, theft, and deceit, not only made for an Emmy nominated miniseries, but it’s also historically true.
Baylor alumnus Kevin Reynolds directed the Hatfields & the McCoys miniseries, which aired May 28-30. He graduated from Baylor with a law degree in 1976.
In 1978, Reynolds decided to attend the University of Southern California after practicing law in Austin for two years.

When I was a little girl, I was always astounded when someone made the prediction that a movie would have a sequel, having no understanding whatsoever of the way the minds of studio executives worked. Could I have foreseen the “Little Mermaid 2?” Or 3? No, but someone more savvy could smell a string of bad Disney sequels a mile off. These add-ons, which I invariably found disappointing, served only to cash in on the good name of a better movie. Money could be made from unnaturally extending a story which had reached a satisfying conclusion–and it was.
By Sarah George Photographer “The Campaign” is first and foremost a political satire on the extremes of political races and…
The map and the street names didn’t match up. We were lost. Monica and I had a little over an hour to find the hotel and make it back to the piazza – we didn’t realize the challenge we had taken on. The words of my journalism professor kept ringing in my mind, “The only way to truly experience Venice is to get lost.” If that’s true, we were experiencing the city on water to the fullest.
Racers in stilettos will dash through Downtown Waco this Saturday for a fundraising event to raise awareness about breast cancer.
As far back as I can remember I’ve been enamored with the George Washington Bridge. There’s a certain je ne sais quoi about it that boggles my mind and sends my heart aflutter. Truth be told, I’ve wanted to write a piece about this man-made wonder for a while, but I was worried I couldn’t do it justice.
Making the case that a large majority of today’s television is awful only requires examining two specific networks and how much they have each devolved.
First Place In what was admittedly a surprise, “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers” for the Sega Genesis won the title for…
For the past week, the only movie title I’ve heard anyone talking about is “Cabin in the Woods.”
There are author success stories. There’s winning the lottery. And then there’s Chad Harbach.
The Baylor University Libraries plan to conclude their Celebration of Texas event with a grand — or rather, giant — event at 7 p.m. Thursday in the Bill Daniel Student Center Den.
His Awesomeness, Jason Statham, has let it be known that he chooses his films based on the fight choreographer the producers hire. Often as not, that blows up in his face. Why else would the Human Bullet from Blighty end up in dogs like “War,” “Transporter 3” and “Death Race”?
John Cusack has heard the sniping. He’s Internet savvy, a big-time Twitter user. So he knew Edgar Allan Poe fanatics were complaining about the movie he was making about the writer.
Rocker Ted Nugent is scheduled for a court hearing in Alaska on Tuesday, when he is expected to plead guilty to transporting a black bear he illegally killed.
Baylor’s film and digital media department has undergone changes over the years. No longer does the industry revolve solely around 35mm film cameras. The digital age is abundantly present.
The “Great Video Game” series has been probably the most fun thing I’ve gotten to participate in at the Lariat. I’ve enjoyed reading all of the submissions that people have turned in — the academic analysis of “NASCAR Thunder 2003,” the religious look at “The Legend of Zelda,” the philosophical explorations of “BioShock” and “Pokemon Snap,” etc.
Fountain Mall will again host Diadeloso. Check out the schedule!
A few films into their Disneynature movie-making experience, producer-directors Alastair Fothergill and Mark Linfield, veterans of the BBC’s acclaimed “Planet Earth” series, figure they’re finally getting the hang of Disney.
Most Baylor students anticipate one thing during the spring semester: Diadeloso. This year’s headliner for the event will be Parachute.
“The Three Stooges,” directed by Peter and Bobby Farrelly, was not the box-office comeback the filmmakers hoped for.
