...after witnessing the many other clichéd moments throughout—is Will’s sudden proclamation of love which occurs very soon after he first meets Ronnie.

...because Teddy feels estranged from the island's less ethereal inhabitants. DiCaprio makes Teddy sometimes cagey-witty, sometimes stupid (he keeps mispronouncing escape as excape). Gruff and heavier than usual, with a few days' beard, he could be channeling Orson Welles' wily lawman in Touch of Evil.

...does America's sexiest statesman stack up? At No. 15, Obama is nowhere near as hot as Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, the world's No. 1 hottest leader. And he just barely clocked in as sexier than Russian heartthrob Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, who failed to break into the top 10 despite many, many pleas for attention.
