Outside the multiplex, these guys have kept it real as well. By marrying a civilian--a bartending single mom--instead of an actress and raising his family quietly in Miami instead of Hollywood, Damon lives a pretty grounded life for an A-lister. After attending Cambridge University, Greengrass spent the 1980s aiming his handheld camera at global hot spots for the British documentary series World in Action. Before moving to dramas, he co-authored Spycatcher, a book that so controversially depicted the British intelligence service that the British government banned it and attempted (unsuccessfully) to ban it in other countries...
...have contributed three-minute filmettes to a compilation called Chacun Son Cinéma (To Each His Own Cinema). The theme is the movie theater. Predictably and poignantly, these brief movies are mostly nostalgic evocations of a communal film experience that may vanish in the face of audience-segmenting multiplex cinemas and the continued development of home-entertainment technology. If the old-fashioned tradition of cinemagoing is to continue, in fact, it may be only in places like Cannes that the great smorgasbord of the movie world seems more appetizing, for one heady moment each year, than...
...Whitney's standup routine of country rube one-liners is his bread and butter, but he's becoming a box office regular. In 2006, his movie Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector earned $15.6 million, proving that enough of Whitney's fans would show up at the multiplex for the potty humor and Dale Earnhardt Jr. references they knew from the Blue Collar Comedy Tour to make his films profitable.

In effect, they're saying, if you can't get a ticket for Spidey, maybe you'll wander down the multiplex hallway and take a look at our picture. It is also said that Hanson has been forced into many months of re-editing fuss to reach this frustrating point. Finally, it has been observed that televised poker, which became a TV darling when this picture was green-lit, has lost some...
Visit your multiplex, and try, just try, to find a movie where women are as plentiful and powerful as men. 300, the Spartan workout video, has one important female role, of King Leonidas' wife (Lena Headey); that leaves 299 for the guys. In Shooter, the hero-on-the-run gets brief assistance from a young widow (Kate Mara) before returning to his mission of evaporating a million bad guys. Girlish Jon Heder, one of the two skaters in the Will Ferrell hit Blades of Glory, does have a love interest (Jenna Fischer), but Ferrell doesn't--unless it's Heder...
