Reilly Twins Are Film Fan Favorites<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 />
