Parents who want the Gospel without the gore can try The Animated Passion, with seven sing-along hymns, a blue-eyed Jesus enduring most of his pain off-camera, and a stodgy illustrative style.

When the Free French Army's 2nd Armored Division helped liberate Paris 60 years ago last week, a 24-year-old Algerian Jew named Robert Elbeze marched in its ranks.

Most of the restaurant guards in Jerusalem are drawn from the underprivileged Ethiopian community--few others are willing to take a low-paying job that could lead to a terrible death. The Ethiopian security check has become so quotidian that only the naivete of a child can expose the strangeness of it. As an Israeli woman walked...
...Zach tells everyone he wrote the part for me, and he's so lying. The No. 1 clue is that my character is not a Jew," Portman says. "He's just saying it because I'm the one who agreed to do the movie. I have met other actresses who have told me they turned it down." The guy is so cocky, he even fakes modesty...
