...talking about the music with Howard, I said, "You know, this could be a play" - it's basically three people in one room, a triangle love story. And underneath all the technology and the sci-fi stuff there's a very powerful, scary story of loss, disintegration and decay. Later it became a kind of iconic AIDS story to a lot of people, but when we were thinking of it, it was just about something that happens to everybody, which is aging and ultimately death. So it has this universal potency underneath the sci-fi trappings...

...Energos - which operates five gasification plants in Norway and one in Germany - says that on balance, the plant will shrink the island's carbon footprint. It will emit the about the same amount of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere as does decay from the landfill. "The benefit is, we're producing electricity" from a renewable source, Grimshaw says.

The camera examines her face, tracks up her tanned legs, nuzzles or nestles in her cleavage, and can find no flaw, as if she were the prize creation of a CGI wizard. One scene - where Samantha, as a treat for Smith, lies nude on their dining room table, her body garnished with sushi - could be a chic photo essay...
