...Bush, the "good" son (played by Jason Ritter), is a fleeting presence in W., as is mother Barbara (Ellen Burstyn), and Neil, Marvin and Dorothy are virtual no-shows. The secret sibling is Stone himself, who, like Dubya, came from a wealthy family and entered Yale in 1964. He left after a year and wound up in Vietnam, where his destiny ambushed him.

...messy at the song’s end, the finale elicited warm applause and a few whistles of admiration before the lights were turned on for intermission. The second half of the concert began with a concerto for violin, cello, and orchestra composed in 1991 by American composer Ellen Taaffe Zwilich. Romanian violinist Irina Muresanu joined cellist Andrew Mark in this two-movement double concerto. The work was characterized by constant dissonance and a mixture of tempos and rhythms.

Voter registration deadlines start Oct. 4, and who better to spread the word than Google and Leonardo DiCaprio and Dustin Hoffman and Ellen DeGeneres and Forest Whitaker and Jonah Hill and Benicio Del Toro... The list goes on for a whopping total of 30 celebrities in this viral video telling you NOT to vote, you misinformed, ignoramus of a so-called American citizen!

His cute boy-next-door charm is effective when coupled with a strong partner, be it Ellen Page in “Juno” or the entire cast of “Arrested Development,” but here all he gets is Dennings’ anemic portrayal of Norah.
