Reilly Twins Are Film Fan Favorites<br />

Continued from page 1<br />

Newton native, who created and<br />

produced the television show<br />

Glee and movies like American<br />

Horror Story and Scream<br />

Queens.<br />

The <strong>12</strong> films are being aired<br />

two per episode for the six shows<br />

broadcast by NESC.<br />

In the third year of the NESC<br />

contest, the Reillys competed<br />

against student filmmakers from<br />

seven other colleges: Boston<br />

University, Central Connecticut<br />

State University, which has<br />

four films in the contest, Lasell<br />

College, which has two films,<br />

Sacred Heart University, Suffolk<br />

University, Trinity College and<br />

Wellesley College.<br />

At Triton, Emily and Hannah<br />

were members of the film<br />

equally important and one that<br />

dominated Bradstreet’s life, as<br />

well as her husband’s, was how<br />

the world would perceive the<br />

new American colonies.<br />

Winthrop preached a sermon<br />

aboard the Arbella that referred<br />

to New England as a “city on a<br />

hill.” That phrase has been used<br />

by other American leaders to<br />

promote the idea that America<br />

should serve as a role model for<br />

other nations.<br />

“I think many Americans<br />

these days worry about our<br />

international reputation,”<br />

Stevick wrote. “If I’m right that<br />

Americans are carrying around<br />

the emotional baggage of a failed<br />

system and an embarrassing<br />

government, others might find<br />

this play a bit of a palliative.”<br />

Bradstreet wrote thousands<br />

of lines about history, politics,<br />

science and astronomy, but<br />

also about birthing, nursing,<br />

managing property, hosting,<br />

club. Both have won other<br />

competitions. Emily won first<br />

place for the Best Drama in the<br />

Merrimack Valley Film Festival<br />

last year. Hannah won the same<br />

prize the previous year and won<br />

awards for news stories last year.<br />

They credit Triton teacher<br />

Robert Lathrup for encouraging<br />

their interest in filmmaking.<br />

Red Sox Chairman Werner<br />

said, “I produced my first short<br />

film in college and know the hard<br />

work and tenacity needed to tell<br />

a quality story using the limited<br />

resources of a student. I’m<br />

impressed with the very diverse<br />

range of young storytellers and<br />

the passion they put into their<br />

work. I hope sports and film<br />

fans everywhere will take time<br />

to watch their work.”<br />

home schooling and merely<br />

surviving the harsh life of nascent<br />

New England.<br />

The poet was also a champion<br />

of women’s rights. Stevick wrote:<br />

“What is perhaps the most<br />

instructive is the finesse with<br />

which she stood for women’s<br />

intellect without alienating<br />

herself from her contemporary<br />

Puritans, a people not known<br />

for their tolerance of dissenting<br />

opinions.”<br />

Bradstreet was focused on the<br />

crises of her time, The “Great<br />

Migration,” the English Civil<br />

War and the execution of King<br />

Charles I. These events that<br />

transformed her writing from<br />

imitative and erudite to original<br />

and relatable, Stevick wrote.<br />

Her work reveals a gravitation<br />

from self-consciously trying to<br />

prove her worthiness in a male<br />

literary world to confident<br />

writing that is more gutsy and<br />

vulnerable. She got political in<br />

her middle age. In her last years,<br />

Falchuk said, “I enjoy<br />

connecting New England college<br />

students with the Hollywood<br />

community and helping start<br />

their careers. It’s fun working<br />

with Tom (Werner) to provide<br />

aspiring filmmakers from my<br />

hometown with feedback on<br />

their short films.”<br />

Falchuk noted that several of<br />

the student filmmakers focused<br />

on the hot topic of immigrants<br />

coming to America. That showed<br />

“a high level of social awareness<br />

that has me excited to see what<br />

these young filmmakers will do<br />

next,” he said.<br />

The twins are part of a<br />

prominent family. Their mother<br />

is attorney Nicole Reilly, and<br />

their father is Newbury Police<br />

Chief Michael Reilly.<br />
