...well, he's never gonna get a girl like Catherine again. (Let me say for the record, that I still am floored by the fact that she had a baby. That means they had/have sex. Yikes.) Why, then, did they have to turn it into such a sketchy affair? First, Douglas secured an exclusive $1.4 million deal with OK! Magazine to publish the official wedding photos, knowing full well that every other tabloid would run unauthorized pictures anyway.

...another? How did he keep every section of Florida's election code, down to the last subsection, straight in his head? No one really knows.

...says Affleck. "I have kind of a John Wayne idea about war. And then I go to Europe to fight in the Battle of Britain and discover that it is in fact vicious and awful and miserable." Affleck's character is thought dead by his paramour, who begins an affair with his best friend. "When I come back and I am in fact alive, there are some difficulties." Comic difficulties?
