...little warming to see, in this instant-gratification box-office era, that fully half of the weekend's winning movies have been around for a while: The Hangover in its fourth week, Up in its fifth, Night at the Museum 2 in its sixth, the graybeard Star Trek in its eighth, and the slow-release Away We Go finally breaking into the Top 10 in its fourth week. That mild comedy, about a couple finding that they are way more wonderful and sensitive than most of their friends and relatives, should be advertised with a smug-alert warning...

Kodak plans to donate the last remaining rolls of Kodachrome film to the George Eastman House's photography museum. One of them will be symbolically shot by McCurry - although the famed photographer gave up the format long ago.
