...pressed to name the weakest link in Stephenie Meyer's four-book series, fans will usually point to New Moon, for the simple reason that the hero - hot, brooding vampire Edward Cullen - decides to leave his mortal soul mate Bella in order to protect her from himself and his kind. He disappears on page 73 and does not return to full-time smoldering duty until page 451. The heart of the story is about how much Bella misses him - as does the reader. When the first copies of the book appeared, Meyer had to urge some fans to read...

...screen, it's a different story. The worst thing about New Moon the book is the best thing about New Moon the movie. As Edward, Pattinson is all pale passion and tortured restraint; his eyebrows, like muskrats determined to mate, hunch together in the middle of his sunken face; the few times he smiles, it looks as if it hurts, and he still seems reluctant to move his mouth when he talks.

...What the plot of New Moon reveals is that Edward and his vampire family are not the only residents of foggy Forks, Wash., to have secrets. Jacob and his Quileute Indian friends, as readers will already know, have a monstrous side as well; when there's a vampire in the area, they transform into werewolves to fight them. And when the wolves appear - ginormous, growling, leaping and lunging predator-protectors - the movie springs to life. The scene in which they chase the vengeful vampire Victoria through the deep woods is vivid and furious, a bracing break from the long stretches...

...response to questions about health care, the economy, and social issues, Coleman stressed finding common ground as necessary to solving major problems. He commended the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy ’54-’56 for his ability to “find a path to something we can all agree...
