The chipmunks should earn back their $70 million budget in a week or two. And Sherlock Holmes handed Ritchie, once known mainly as Mr. Madonna, his first real hit; the director's five previous features have taken in a total of about $40 million at the North American box office. He achieved success both by turning Holmes from a contemplative sort into an action hero, and by filling the role with Robert Downey...

I am happy with what his government has done so far, which is vastly more that any fractious, self-opinionated, center-left alliance did in the past. Many members of his Cabinet like the Ministers of Finance, Agriculture, the Interior, Environment (a woman), Instruction (another woman) and the Disaster Relief Agency are delivering good results. Ms. Carfagna is not just a pretty partygoer, her achievements as Minister for Equal Opportunities are hard to deny. Among the voters who elected Berlusconi were...
