...course, much of the ballooning income gap is a product of compensation packages based on stock options translated into improbable wealth by the dizzy Dow, which could always tank and provide a dose of schadenfreude to those mired in class resentment. But no amount of carping by labor over the widening chasm between the earnings of the fat cats and the paycheck of the working stiff is likely to change the equation. Shaming the wealthy may be a longstanding pastime in Europe, but nobody apologizes for being rich in America...

...lack of zeal for supercentrist candidates Gore and Bradley (once considered the toasts of Beverly Hills, but if Beatty should run, perhaps just toast), the leading man whose most recent movie role was that of a Mad Hatter Senator, Jay Bulworth, threatened to inject color and charisma, and a dose of classic leftism, into a thus far pale political season. "The political system is so corrupted, we don't really need a third party. We need a second one," Beatty said, affirming his faith in Jack-and-Bobby liberalism and voicing a fear that America was becoming a big-money...

...bike? Yes, but in this breathless adventure logic is less important than a desperate momentum in both the story and the film's style. Telling the plot three times, with cunning variations, Tykwer mixes pixilated photos, split screens, cartooning, the works. Invigorating and annoying, Lola could use a dose of Ritalin. Best to take this 76-minute riff on alternate destinies as an antidote to Europe's minimalist art-house cinema and to enjoy Potente's sweaty radiance. With her guile and loping intensity, she's part trickster, part track star...

BONE BUILDERS Elderly women concerned about osteoporosis may have a kinder, gentler way to build strong bones. Low doses of hormone-replacement therapy, combined with calcium and vitamin D supplements, produce minimal side effects and may increase bone mass just as effectively as today's higher-dose hormone regimens...
