...they're over, and now he's spilling his guts in a new book, Mr. S. The highlights? Sinatra's affair with then underage Natalie Wood; third wife Mia Farrow's annoying him by talking to her deaf cat Malcolm in sign language; J.F.K.'s snorting coke with Peter Lawford; and the Chairman's donning special underwear--"a cross between a panty girdle and a jock strap"--to restrain his massive, uh, endowment. Guess there's such a thing as being too Frank...

...better, then, to get down and dirty in the Australian desert? For Rabbit-Proof Fence's most gut-wrenching scene, Doyle used a hand-held camera to record the all-too-real distress of the girls as they are torn from their mother (Ningali Lawford) and thrown into a police car. "He was able to free up the filmmaking process and allow our stars, who were untrained and had never acted before, to feel unburdened and just be themselves," recalls director Noyce...

...Eleven is a film that does not deserve a remake. The 1960 original featured the Rat Pack and an extended rodent family in a plot to rob five Las Vegas casinos in one New Year’s Eve heist.

...half the cast of "The West Wing," who rushed over from the Warner Bros. set after taping their show. Real politicos on hand included Donna Shalala (how she loved the celebs!), Chris Cuomo, Bob Kerrey, Tom Harkin, Barbara Boxer, Lynda Bird Johnson and Chuck Robb, the Kennedys and a Lawford or two, as well as model Christie Brinkley, fresh from casting her vote to nominate Al Gore as part of the New York delegation. There were newsies/talk show hosts too, like Bill Maher of "Politically Incorrect," Jon Stewart of Comedy Central and former Washington Post and TIME mag man Carl...

...Thursday the Senator stayed up past midnight working on his eulogy and, after flying from Hyannis Port to New York, polished it at his sister Pat Lawford's apartment. Plans were so last-minute that when staff members turned in for the night, it was still unclear whether Caroline would speak; the program was not printed until 1 a.m. It was her decision to ask Ted to deliver the eulogy. But even if she didn't eulogize John, it was she and her children who became the emotional center of the service. She reminded the mourners about the love...
