Wearstler is not alone in her taste for high drama. A decadent spirit of retro eclecticism is in the air?blame it on Marie Antoinette, or perhaps on Sofia Coppola's fall biopic starring Kirsten Dunst as the famous French voluptuary. Philippe Starck may have ignited it years ago with his transparent Louis Ghost chair, but the yen for playful baroque design is finding other outlets, especially retail venues. Haute femme is an antidote to sleek Modernism, somber Minimalism and the kind of unbridled multiculturalism that juxtaposes a Chinese wedding cabinet, a Moroccan rug and a Balinese vessel. Says...
...EIGHT YEARS, ROBERT RICH HAS WORKED from the basement of the Marc Jacobs store in New York City. His tiny office is plastered with photographs and magazine clippings of famous clients?Sofia Coppola, Hilary Swank, Winona Ryder.

Few of the characters get the development they deserve. Gyllenhaal does a serviceable job of slowly going insane, and Sarsgaard is searing; he’s far from the fey foil he usually plays. But Foxx is forced to do the best...
Carl Sagan is dead, but Francis Ford Coppola hasn't forgotten him. Zoetrope, Coppola's film company, is suing Sagan and Warner Bros. over the upcoming film Contact. Coppola claims he worked with Sagan on the idea as a TV show before Sagan wrote his book. Now he wants $250,000 and a halt to further work on the film...
