The drawings — whose whispering, densely packed lines cohere into ectoplasmic spills or brittle, invertebrate humanoids — have all the psychological disquiet of Bellmer's photos, but their delicacy rewards the kind of up-close viewing that a small gallery like this permits.
|
|
That they all cohere is because of Ms. Lovelis's convincing voice, and the chipper tautness of the rest of the band: Casey Moreta on guitar, Miranda Miller on keys, Iain Shipp on bass and Nia Lovelis, Rena's sister, on drums.

That wealth of acreage may contribute to the excessive looseness of this technically ambitious production (with projections by Scott M. Ries and sound by Ryan William Downey), which has the feel of a work in progress that has yet to cohere.
|

Aside from that, and a few other departures to help a joke land or a plotline cohere, the movie doesn't stray too far from a dramatically rich series of events that befell Gordon and Nanjiani a decade ago, shortly before they turned thirty.

She too was a longtime party elite whose campaign was defined more by what it was not—Trump or Sanders—than what it was: a patchwork quilt of incremental reforms to the status quo that failed to cohere around a single theme.

In five absorbing portraits, black whorls drown their subjects into featurelessness; a landscape is nothing more than striated black bands; paper towels on which the artist wipes his brushes exhibit Rorschach-like resonances of a face or a body but never properly cohere.

PARELES On this track, from the Israeli bassist Avishai Cohen's latest album, each instrument seems to be doing a different dance — and even if they never cohere into a steady flow, together the five-piece band establishes a kind of boisterous, polyglot unity.

|
|
And his official explanation of the need for a cozy relationship with the Saudis — that they are a valuable customer for American arms merchants — makes very little sense, though it does cohere with his larger nonsensical views about international trade as a whole.

|
When they cohere (and they mostly do), they often feel dutiful, rather than profound or revelatory, and when they don't, they feel like cousins who don't know each other very well, but are nevertheless forced to share a sublet for the summer.
|
|
Dirty Projectors' post-2005 work, which mostly saw Longstreth collaborating with a band, is less heavy on conceptual pretension, instead lacing his lyrics with hard to decipher beat poems of the disenchanted and fragmented half-thoughts that only cohere in the mind of one man.

|
|
The philosopher Immanuel Kant touched on a similar point in his critique of the ontological argument for God (which states, broadly, that God is the greatest thing that could possibly be conceived of, and that since existence is greater than non-existence, for the concept to cohere God must necessarily exist).
|
|
It's worth noting that besides the circumstances of the one-night stand that facilitates the plot, Jenkins' film, starring Tracey Heggins and Wyatt Cenac, was not really about the inner life of Jo, and even swings to cover gentrification (a decision that does not cohere all that seamlessly with the rest of the film).

A viewer shrieked with laughter at "Good Morning Mr. Orwell" (1984) as a frizzy-haired Sapho singing "TV is Eating Up Your Brain" transitioned into somersaulting dancers, all lorded over by the megalithic, fifty-TV-set "Internet Dream" (1994), whose multi-screen patterns almost cohere into recognition before dissipating, faster than the mind can move.

Coventry's brooding narrative, in varying parts philosophical action-adventure, travelogue, family drama, war chronicle and psychological puzzler, is suffused with the ever-querying perspective of its haunted central character, who, for reasons that don't cohere till the book's final chapters, appropriates his older brother's experiences as a pilot spared by injury and illness from the massacre at Gallipoli.

In the later Titian "Annunciation" here, standing nine feet tall and on loan from the Museo di Capodimonte in Naples, the free brush strokes of Gabriel's wings and the parting clouds cohere only at a distance; get up close and marvel at how Titian breaks down color, makes the brush stroke its own justification, and pushes the visible to the limit.

Scheduling quality opponents frequently requires playing in their arenas, in a sport in which the home team wins two-thirds of the time, and playing excellent basketball in November and December, in a sport in which power-conference teams can cohere over months, go on a run in February and March against their high-quality league rivals and still scramble into the bracket.

It's not difficult in the sense that the material is particularly graphic or disturbing, though some works, along with Wojnarowicz himself, were pilloried by certain Republicans and members of the religious right for offending hysterical homophobes during the early years of the AIDS crisis in the US.

The problem is partly structural: Eyre and Munro have leaned heavily on Lucy's childhood, all but erasing the novel's thread involving literary mentorship, and certain details, such as Lucy's enduring preoccupation with the Nazis (her father, stationed in Germany, killed two local boys at point-blank range; her husband's German father was a prisoner of war; and, with almost apologetic gratuitousness, Lucy notes that her angelic doctor is Jewish), fail to cohere.

At the same time, they feel like a sign of an industry moving ever closer towards the idea of music solely as an instantly-consumable commercial product, illustrated by records and records worth of one-and-done tracks that don't cohere with one another Obviously it's worth saying that there can be lots of positive and authentic reasons for the playlist-style album—Billie Eilish's debut record When We All Fall Asleep Where Do We Go?

Calling into question the cultural impact of the original movie, the critic Alistair Harkness said that crucial moments in the sequel felt forced: Boyle's frenetic, collagelike directing style, particularly as he reintroduces us to the characters amid a torrent of cocaine, vomit and violence also gives the film a trying-too-hard feel and even though some of it does jolt "T2" to life, the cast doesn't always have the emotional range to make it cohere.

The feeling of disconnect — of characters who say they're in conflict, but don't have many real conflicts, of tonally diverse elements patched together into a loose quilt, of characters that don't cohere and are just around to snipe in jokes — extends throughout every aspect of Men In Black: International, but it's most prominent in the editing, which often feels as though entire scenes are missing, as if F. Gary Gray (Straight Outta Compton, The Fate of the Furious) hoped no one would notice as long as things moved fast enough.
