...hearing empty promises. "Before Katrina, the man used to give us straight yes and no answers, and we liked that," says John Washington, 40, an owner of a small print shop who lives in the city's Ninth Ward, perhaps the hardest hit by the hurricane.

...spot for the Belgian branch of U.N. children's agency UNICEF. The ad, meant to highlight the toll of war on children, had STEADY DIET OF NOTHING waxing philosmurfical: "It has garnered more interest than actual dead human beings.

...found myself checking my watch. The weird sexual subplot between youthful Brandon Lane and middle-aged Toni Abraham is unbelievable and kind of grotesque. As Walter says in the movie to his wife, “I’m like Brandon’s father… I guess that would make you his mother, right, Toni?” Never mind their roles and the standards set by Demi Moore/Ashton Kutcher; Russo is too old for McConaughey, period.
