...affirming story about fathers and sons, the kind of thing Steven Spielberg keeps returning to. (Spielberg was at one point attached to direct the film, as was The Hours' Stephen Daldry.) The movie stars Albert Finney as a man on his deathbed who recalls his younger self, played by Ewan McGregor, as a force of indefatigable buoyancy; Finney's son, played by Billy Crudup, believes his father is just an indefatigable liar. Big Fish is rooted in a conflicted adult world, and for the first time in a Tim Burton film, it is the parent--not the child...

Viktor and Rolf are crestfallen. The Dutch designers - fashion-set favorites who are now out to prove that they're not too quirky for mainstream success - are in London for their first-ever movie premiere, the opening of Young Adam, starring Ewan McGregor and their friend and muse Tilda Swinton.

This much we know about enigmatic auteur Tim Burton's movie Big Fish, which opens Thanksgiving weekend: it contains a car, a tree and EWAN MCGREGOR. The plot revolves around an old man (Albert Finney) who tells tall tales about himself as a younger man (that would be McGregor), but little else is clear. Is it a fairy tale? "I always like a mixture of all of those elements--funny, sad, real, unreal, all together," says Burton. "I find that's the most accurate description of how I feel every day." Fair enough.
