...series: all the stars but Parker go topless. And, poaching on Apatow territory, the film matches a glimpse of a healthy penis with a view of the russet pubic moss luxuriating below Miranda's swimsuit line. But there are more male buttocks than female breasts on display here, as if to appeal to the show's other core constituency - gay men. That's fine with me, since gay screenwriters are the last ones who believe that comedy needs verbal wit, that the epigram still has a place in movies. (Though, disappointingly, there are precious few mots in this...

She lost her mother to cancer when she was just 12; her father, José, had to bring up his children on a postman's salary...
...avatar (attractiveness was rated by undergrads in a survey beforehand) and instructed to look at them in a virtual mirror for 90 seconds. Then they were asked to interact with other avatars, controlled by the experimenters, in a classroom-like setting. Overall, subjects using good-looking avatars tended to display more confidence, friendliness and extroversion, just as in the real world: they approached avatar strangers within three feet, and in conversations tended to disclose more personal details. Ugly-duckling avatars, meanwhile, stayed five and a half feet away from strangers and were more tight-lipped...
