...month, a late Lent before the big "summer" film feast begins in early May. (This year's Maytime blockbuster hopefuls: Wolverine, Star Trek, Angels & Demons, Terminator Salvation and Night at the Museum; and those are just the major sequels, prequels and remakes.) The last weekend in April is a kind of movie doggie day care, where Hollywood stashes its unwanted mutts until they can be unleashed on DVD. Given the low-rent release date of Obsessed, and Sony Screen Gems' refusal to screen it for critics, industry analysts predicted an opening weekend of $15-17 million. Yet the movie, which...

"We want to fund a family's need," says Allen. "We can't afford to fund their want...
...That kind of jockeying is a bad strategy, officers note. Trying to start a bidding war is generally a losing proposition in part because every school's resources and aid calculations are different. Colleges will rarely match an offer outright. That doesn't mean applicants shouldn't bring up other schools' awards, however, because the comparison may turn up extra data that one school had not taken into consideration.
