Eliasson, 39, who lives in Berlin, was raised in Denmark by Icelandic parents, so perhaps his yearning for light was carried in his Nordic bloodlines. But while he has been inspired by James Turrell and Dan Flavin, artists who use pure light as their medium, his purpose isn't merely to explore light's mystery and power. And though he has a decided sense of humor--one early work was a simple rainbow created in a spray of mist--minimalist performance-art jokes are the least of what he has in mind. What Eliasson cares about are the ways...
...studios bother with prima donnas like Cruise and stick with the reliables, the stars of hit comedies? All this millennium, Adam Sandler has made medium-budget blockbusters, grossing more than $100 million at the domestic box office six years in a row. Jim Carrey can be huge in the right project. Will Ferrell has become a major deliverer. Talladega Nights, if it keeps on motoring at its turbo pace, could end up one of the top five grossers of the year (after Pirates of the Caribbean 2, Cars, X-Men III and The Da Vinci Code); and it was made...

Eugene Gurkin (Donal Logue) is a janitor with a big ambition. All right, a medium-size one: to open a bar whose signature drink would be the gin Eugene, "a pint glass of nice, cheap room-temperature gin." Lacking the start-up scratch for his business, he hatches a plan when he sees Jagger, who will do cameos throughout the series, on an E! celebrity-home show. He recruits a motley band of burglars--including a lawyer turned cabbie, a security guard and a bombshell waitress with a shady past--and christens them the Knights of the title. "Issue...
