...says Howard, who will work with Crowe again on next year's The Cinderella Man, a boxing movie. "But early on he said something like, 'Look, don't get caught in my vortex of darkness. I am moody, and I may get dark, but do your job. Direct me. I'm here to serve the movie.' And he gave me 110% on my choices. He'd say, 'I don't buy it, Ron. You'll hate this in the editing room.'

Earlier this year the FDA released a paper addressing the controversial issue of direct-to-consumer (DTC) advertising by pharmaceutical companies, which is often charged with misleading consumers.
