...Spears and Federline's September 2004 wedding, the groom gave his attendants white tracksuits with the word "Pimp" written on the back, and revelers dined on chicken wings. The newlyweds shared home videos of their courtship on a reality show, Britney & Kevin: Chaotic. Spears talked in often icky detail about her sex life to reporters and was frequently photographed barefoot in public. Before long, she was pregnant...
DIED. William Styron, 81, writer of morally provocative epics--including Lie Down in Darkness and The Confessions of Nat Turner--that explore, in agonizing detail, the human capacity for evil; on Martha's Vineyard, Mass.

Along with Sophie's Choice, the harrowing tale of an Auschwitz...

The design of the underworld is pretty splendid, with an imaginative scope and attention to detail that might have taken decades to realize if each piece had to be constructed and painted, rather than simply texted and input. You certainly won't see thumbprints on the characters, as were occasionally visible in the fingers-on-clay movies. This one is as polished as a formica table top in the kitchen of a neat-freak housewife. The question is whether the Aardmen lost some of stop-motion's charm, its humanity...
