...That leaves a vast and vital batch of commercial stuff - which may be box-office hits in their home countries, though unknown elsewhere - for the connoisseurs of Midnight Madness. As Geddes says with justifiable pride, "It's everything that you don't expect to find at a film festival." His job is to honor the primary demand after-hours movie goers have for a film: that it keep them awake...

...important time for Moore. It was the last month of the Presidential campaign, which would serve as the electorate's first real referendum on the war, and the first month of the DVD release of Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11, which had earned an astounding $119 million at the domestic box office.

So to get out the youth vote for Democratic standard bearer John Kerry, and maybe move a few units of Fahrenheit 9/11, Moore went on the Slacker Uprising Tour...

And little details tell the tale. Because beyond all of his branding and focus, it's nailing the little things that has gotten Ralph Lauren, 40 years after he started, to the top of the heap...

...care taken in period detail and psychological nuance, the film's big talking point is three startlingly intense scenes between Leung and Wang. Sex may not sell at the box office (audiences get enough of that in their home entertainment), but it's news at film festivals. And Lee knows how to stoke feverish whispers. When at Venice he was asked if the actors engaged in actual sex, he impishly replied, "Have you seen the film...
