 In Mexico, sicario means 
hitman. The trailer for “Sicar-
io” will tell you as much. 
However, 
the trailer 
won’t tell 
you exactly 
what’s going 
on, plot-
wise. Which 
is actu-
ally one of 
its strengths. 
The first official trailer for 
“Sicario” takes you south 
of the border with protago-
nist Emily Blunt (“Edge of 
Tomorrow”), as she becomes 
engaged in the bloody, never-
ending war between drug 
enforcement officers and the 
high rollers of illegal drug 
industry. One such high roller 
appears to be Benicio Del Toro 
(“Snatch”), while Josh Brolin 
(“No Country for Old Men”) 
plays Blunt’s ally.
 The trailer begins with 
the oft-used strobelight 

strategy, flashing bits of the 
film between blank black 
space. While unoriginal, the 
technique works well with 
similarly styled sound effects. 
Intimidating figures, tense, 
unexpected action and a 

Mexican backdrop seem to 
provide a reliable idea of what 
to expect from “Sicario.” For 
what it’s worth, talks of a 
sequel have already begun.

LIONSGATE

We sent Daily arts writer Danielle 

Raykhinshteyn to the Diag to find out 
what students are wearing for fall. The 
answer? Old standbys with plenty of 
history, thrifted gems and sartorial 

souvenirs from far-off places.

Sean Zhang, 21 — Engineering senior, mechanical engineering:

“I care more about my hair than my clothes, so I’ll keep growing my hair. I like 
keeping this ponytail. I’m not really focused on how I’m going to dress today.”

Anita Ho, 18 — Music, Theatre & Dance freshman, clarinet performance:

“I really like flannel shirts, so I’m planning on going thrifting next weekend with 
my roommate for some flannels. I’m pretty petite, so I’m looking for anything 
that I can tie at the waist or that fits my height.”

Allison Fedler, 18 — LSA freshman, undecided:

“I have a pair of suede, taupe-colored wedges. They’re an ankle boot. They’re 
comfortable, and I like wearing heels because I like being taller than I am. I think 
they look good with a lot of different outfits.”

Brandon Patterson, 28 — Rackham student:

“This leather bag is a bag I got after traveling to India this summer. It reminds 
me of the trip and is just a good bag all around that is pretty versatile. It’s a 
brown bag with magnet clips on the sides and pretty simple in its design, but 
inside there are three pockets, a few zippered ones, and it also holds a laptop, 
which is what I need it for.”
