...expect the honchos at Walt Disney Co., which owns ABC, to be arriving for the Obama Inaugural festivities via United or American. Disney, like any self-respecting media company, owns or leases aircraft to get its own VIPs around. They're not going to let Miley Cyrus slum it on Southwest. The privileged would include Bob Iger, Disney's CEO. The company spent more than $65,000 in 2007 on Iger's personal travel aboard corporate aircraft, and it requires him to fly corporate when he's on business.

Part documentary and part memoir, it details Folman's odyssey to retrieve the lost memories of his youth as a bewildered soldier under fire in Beirut during the 1982 Lebanon war. Through flashbacks, visits to a psychiatrist and stories told by old war buddies, Folman's animated self follows his real-life quest to remember what happened.
