Thus Mangano played Penelope (and Circe) to Kirk Douglas' Ulysses; Loren was the honey to Anthony Quinn's Attila. Quinn, in Federico Fellini's La Strada, was the circus brute to the sad clown played by Fellini's wife, Giuletta Masina. Europa 51, directed by Roberto Rossellini, starred his then-wife Ingrid Bergman. Their grandest production - King Vidor's War and Peace, with Henry Fonda, Audrey Hepburn and her actor-producer husband Mel Ferrer - was also their biggest flop...

Christina Aguilera "Hurt" Dir. Francis Sigismondi The first thirty seconds of Christina Aguilera’s “Hurt,” in which black and white circus footage rolls over an ominous violin piece, may be the most disorienting thing a pop diva has done to video viewers since Britney’s spandex-in-space adventures of the late twentieth century.
