...terrifically unfair business. CLOONEY: It hasn't been equitable in a long, long time. It's incredibly unfair. You don't see a lot of 60-year-old women with 20-year-old men onscreen. PITT: You will in Benjamin Button. [Pitt is currently shooting The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, in which his character ages backward.] Sixty and 20 to be exact. CLOONEY: You're playing 20? Really? DAMON: There's a lot of cgi. [To Pitt and Clooney] Is it true that you were the last two actors up for the hitchhiker role in Thelma & Louise? CLOONEY...

Chiang-themed tour packages will target mainland Chinese, who are invariably curious about Mao's nemesis. Perhaps they could include the statue at my local park on the itinerary. In this rendition, a grandfatherly Chiang wears a traditional Chinese tunic and leans on a cane. If ever his legacy needed propping...
...movie written and directed by Judd Apatow, the guy who cast him for Freaks and Geeks. It's the same strategy Apatow used to sell his movie The 40 Year-Old Virgin: Put a huge unknown face in the middle of a billboard and hope people get curious. But at least Virgin's Steve Carell looked vaguely like a handsome leading man. Rogen doesn't. So the arc of his career makes little sense to anyone, including Rogen, who is walking around the set of his next starring vehicle--The Pineapple Express--agog at the surrealism of the Rogen-look...
