...writers with some hand-waving and some passable but hardly exciting gags. Which is not to say that there aren’t some really funny moments—I respect any comedy that’s willing to kill off likeable minor characters and still expect you to laugh (see The Big Lebowski). Zoolander is just enough to inspire ambient tittering, unfortunately, the humor only crests into real, memorable laughter about a dozen times throughout the film.

...press, neither watching television nor looking online. I had stopped reading articles, feeling overwhelmed by the scope of coverage and not knowing where to begin. The enormity of the event had not resonated. How do we act in the midst of such horror? Is it okay to smile or laugh? Should we attempt to talk about anything aside from the attack?

...years, the girls have exposed me to an environment where they share their feelings, and I've tried to teach my players to do the same thing. I tell them it's not guys doing girl things; it's being a real person--to hug, to cry, to laugh, to share. If you create a culture where that's allowed, all of a sudden, you have some depth...

...never been done before," he replied. But real life isn't always like the movies. When I spoke with Barnard a month ago, he was a lonely man, divorced from his third wife. He had lost his looks to skin cancer. But he could still think back and laugh at his moment of fame. "For a lot of people I was too good to be true," he said. The truth is, Chris Barnard, who dared to go into the unknown, opened a magic door for people who are now walking about with new hearts...
