When Clooney Came to Dinner Thank you, Joel Stein, for the wonderful story about George Clooney's visit [March 3].

...friend. Here, in the script that director Ira Sachs has written with Oren Moverman, the tale in set in the late '40s - prime time for film noir, whose shadowy contours and sleek period architecture the Sachs movie mimes. Of late, noir has often been pretzeled into post-modernism: by Joel and Ethan Coen in The Man Who Wasn't There, by Todd Haynes in Far from Heaven, by Robert Rodriguez in Sin City. Each of these built on the viewer's familiarity with the form to play with and subvert it, to create a new, gnarled noir...
When Clooney Came to Dinner Thank you, Joel Stein, for the wonderful story about George Clooney's visit [March 3]. You totally reaffirmed what I thought to be true: Clooney seems like just a cool, down-to-earth dude you would love to have a beer with. If there were more people like Clooney in Hollywood (people who don't mind laughing at themselves rather than dying for attention), young actors wouldn't be living such chaotic lives.
