This is, without a doubt, the sexiest setting ever for a meeting of aspiring astronauts: under swaying palm trees on the beach of a private island owned by Richard Branson in the British Virgin Islands. It is the week after Thanksgiving, and Branson is playing host to a "galactic get-together" on Necker Island. Beer and wine are being consumed like so much rocket fuel. Sushi floats in on a boat--to the middle of the pool. (Swimsuits required!) There's a casino party one night, a tennis tourney in the pouring rain and golf off the top deck...
...signs that Shi'ite militias might be reducing their attacks on Sunnis. Al-Sadr has ordered his Mahdi Army to lie low and avoid direct confrontation with American troops. Al-Sadr himself and several of his top commanders are believed to have left for Iran. But few in Baghdad doubt that he will be back.

NIDA-trained Way, resident director at Covent Garden, has no doubt Durkin's voice can take the heat. "There's a glint in her eyes," he notes. Moreover, she has the lightning-bolt stage skills to transfigure the role: "The voice, the imagination, the inner conviction, the dexterity and physical expressiveness, command of language...
...always presenting their words in context.With the evolutionists Olson is a little tougher, and a recurring humor device in the movie is his interrupting their segments to define particularly academic terminology. The only appreciable difference in his treatment of the two sides is that he doesn’t doubt the science behind the evolutionists.Olson spent his entire life studying biology—marine biology, evolutionary biology, and embryology—before scrapping it all in 1994 to attend film school at the University of Southern California. Both parts of his biography seem to play an important part...
