Kidman found her singing voice quickly ("there was a real sweetness of tone from the outset," says musical director Marius De Vries), but her dancing was sometimes more Gerald Ford than Ginger Rogers. During rehearsal, Kidman broke a rib and spent weeks recovering at home in Sydney. While Cruise tended to her ("he was very good to me," she says), Kidman spent the downtime on her sofa rehearsing songs. Near the end of production, she tore cartilage in her knee while shooting the Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend number...
...combine the two. I'll take pompano and marinate it in miso, which preserves and enhances the flavor. That's very Japanese. Then I'll turn to French technique in how I cook it."

Harvard should not allow obstinacy to cloud common sense. Though the current Board of Overseers is not responsible for Harvard’s actions in the 1950s and can in no way compensate Ann Ginger for events of the past, it does have the power to give her the apology that she deserves...
