...suggested another droll innovation at Pixar, a studio proud of taking risks in a traditional genre; mean and old are words rarely attached to the main character in an animated feature. But Docter, 40, who'd done the 2001 Monsters, Inc., and his co-director and co-writer Bob Peterson didn't want just to have fun with the elderly gent. They would send him and the audience on a journey in two new directions: penetratingly inward and exaltedly...

...company is in the process of axing 1,100 of its 6,000 dealers. When the march of time, the sins of management and the scythe of a bad economy conspire to bankrupt once great companies, who pays? The sort of person, in the words of Tennessee Senator Bob Corker, "who ran a profitable business, civic leader, always responsible," who "very unfortunately" is "going to take a lot of pain" for the mistakes of others. A guy like Steve Weinberg. "It breaks your heart," says the Senator. (See the 50 worst cars of all time...

I have followed Dylan for more than 46 years, from his folk era to Blonde on Blonde, with its existential masterpiece "Visions of Johanna," and beyond. Albert Einstein said of Gandhi, "Generations to come will scarce believe that such a one as this ... walked upon this earth." I feel the same can be said of Dylan. I know he bristles at such adoration, but if he were in my shoes, he'd understand the appreciation and love. With so much evil in the world, humanity needs poets like Dylan who challenge...

...particularly good for Italian and American cinema: Italian films took home the award four times straight, from 1966 to 1972, and twice again in 1977-78. Italian-American heavyweights Martin Scorsese (Taxi Driver, 1976) and Francis Ford Coppola (Apocalypse Now, 1979) took the glory for the U.S. and even Bob Fosse joined in at the start of the 1980s with All That Jazz. But critics would snipe that truly great films (and directors) were being overlooked: there would be no Cannes love for Rainer Werner Fassbinder (Ali: Fear Eats the Soul),Werner Herzog (Every Man for Himself and God Against...

...show with the most explicit cultural politics is 18 Kids, whose Duggars espouse a pro-life, Evangelical Christianity. (The dad, Jim-Bob, was an Arkansas legislator and ran for Senate in 2002.) They homeschool, reject evolution and eschew pop culture--except Today show visits and their series--and when the kids watch a DVD, an elder daughter puts a hand on the screen to hide a character's immodest dress. Watching Jim-Bob criticize Hollywood moviemaking--"It might make money for companies, but it's not good for individuals"--you're staring at the strange no-man's-land where...
