...photo-op at a small park in Chinatown. Republican delegates were working alongside local residents to “clean up” the park, which had been closed temporarily in the aftermath of the Sept. 11 tragedy. They were almost outnumbered by members of the media eager to photograph and report on the morning’s pseudo-event. The “clean up,” as far as we could observe, was a farce, consisting mostly of sweeping and raking the handful of leaves that had gathered and clumped in the grass over the summer...

Desmond Barrit gives an icy turn as U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, and as British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Nicholas Farrell catches the vocal tics and eager body language almost too precisely. Alex Jennings' George W. Bush cannily suggests the confidence and drive beneath the cowboy persona. And the dramatic high point comes when U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell (Joe Morton) battles with Nick Sampson's silkily threatening French Foreign Minister Dominique de Villepin over...
