...return to the genre which made him famous--the sexually charged neo-noir thriller that he basically reinvented. Matt Damon should go for range and dive into a weird character--maybe even a villain. (Sacre bleu!) Gretchen Mol should have a heart-to-heart with Meryl Streep, and John Malkovich should just relax. In short, Rounders should be a transition piece for all these artists. Let us hope they move on to bigger and better things. Soman Chainani...
...prim foil to the buffoon Porthos. A summary of his character is provided in his answer to a vexed Athos, who exclaims, "Are you so much holier than the rest of us?" He replies calmly, "Yes, I am." While Depardieu and Irons provide the comic relief, John Malkovich plays the father unhinged by grief who finds a surrogate son in Phillipe, and not always convincingly.

...from his apartment. As we made our way through Manhattan traffic one recent afternoon, I asked Kline if there had ever been a movie role he wished he'd been offered, foolishly imagining that he might occasionally fantasize a more Harrison Ford-like career trajectory. "When I saw John Malkovich in Dangerous Liaisons," Kline says, "I have to admit I felt some envy about that part. I went right home and called John and told him." Kline professes to have no objection to doing a big-budget action movie but can think of only one action character--a charming hero...
