...Angeles and San Francisco, and in other cities next week, is a sweet, very funny, volcanically romantic comedy-drama about relationships in post-9/11 New York City. It could slip comfily into any slot at the Sundance Film Festival, or the art-house screen at your local multiplex, except for one thing: it has lots of explicit, hard-core...
...fifth 9/11 anniversary, docudrama was dynamite in North America. As millions in the U.S. watched the Clinton Administration botch snuffing out al-Qaeda on the first of ABC TV's two-part miniseries The Path to 9/11, hundreds of Canadians crowded into a Paramount multiplex theater to see the Toronto International Film Festival's world premiere of Death of a President, a sober fakeumentary from Britain's Channel 4 that imagines the assassination of the current President Bush in Chicago on Oct. 19, 2007, and depicts it in footage so persuasive that some viewers may need to give themselves...

For those of us who like pop for pop's sake, the degree to which the albums succeed is entirely a function of how much the singers keep any mention of their fame--and the distance...
Snakes may cement Jackson's status as the multiplex's great populist--a title he has pursued for years. His early career, like those of most actors, was a series of frustrating absurdities. Jackson originated the role of Boy Willie in August Wilson's The Piano Lesson but was shunted to understudy when Charles S. Dutton became available. Jackson also spent two years as Bill Cosby's on-set stand-in for The Cosby Show. (He does a formidable Cos impression.) After Pulp Fiction made him famous in his mid-40s, Jackson settled into his current rhythm of mixing prestige...
