...Cotillard in La Vie en Rose. "Guys are really dropping the ball. I think it's because the women aren't interested in being sexy anymore and the men are. All these guys have objectified themselves and sexualized themselves into being matinee idols." In an era when the holy grail of film is mass appeal, he subscribes to the belief that "you can't make a movie for everybody. You can't go into it trying to alienate people, but you have to assume that you're going to." Of course, this unconventionality may all be youthful hubris; Johnny Depp...

That, in turn, has made it something of a holy-grail dateline for reporters covering the military. Not that I saw much of it. After President Bush deplaned, he was greeted by an honor guard on the tarmac. We were taken 100 yards to a low, beige outbuilding and shown to an auditorium, while Bush met the base commander and some unspecified others.
