...City. They look awful, and it looks fantastic. You can practically savor Diaz's joy at proving that she's a "real" actress and not just another pretty face. Craig and Lotte are an absurd, sexless married couple - pet store junkie and street puppeteer - fighting for the affections of mean, unattainable Maxine (Catherine Keener). The world they exist in at first resembles the Kafkaesque wilds of a Terry Gilliam creation. Nimble-fingered Cusack, for instance, gets a job manning file cabinets on the 7 1/2th floor of a downtown high-rise built specially for the short-statured: the rent...

And it's so loud and there are so many people watching and yelling and it's just great. My family is coming to watch...
...Rowing in general is a low-visibility sport, it's not a spectator sport. EK: Well, this is the one regatta where it is a spectator sport. I mean the Olympics are a spectator sport, but this is truly a spectator sport in that there's always some crew going by and in that way, it's a gas. So I think corporate sponsorship is fine. But I don't think people are getting paid to row, which is a not a bad thing. Plus, you get to see all the latest technology in boats...
