...Ryno de Marigny (newcomer Fu'ad Ait Aattou) is a famous reprobate who's about to marry the innocent aristocrat Hermangarde (Roxane Mesquida) but, reputedly, hasn't shaken off the allure of his Spanish mistress Vellini (Asia Argento). The film is mostly a flashback relating their affair. Like many movies once upon a time, and few today, An Old Mistress approaches romantic passion with a voluptuous seriousness.

...Zhou Fu-kuan, a cheerful 32-year-old, just smiled when I told him that the United States was filing suit against China at the World Trade Organization (WTO) over intellectual property infringement. I've known Zhou for nearly two years. He runs the DVD stand across the street from the apartment building I used to live in here in Shanghai, and over that time I've literally bought a couple of hundred pirated movies from him. "I hadn't heard that," he said of the U.S.'s WTO suit, "but this sort of thing happens a lot - the government...
