...remains to be seen, of course, whether this coalition will last. But if their anger at the Bush Administration and its policies is any guide, then Muslim Americans - immigrant and African American alike - will not soon break with their new-found liberal allies. In the meantime, many non-Muslim Americans will be troubled by these developments and find in them further evidence of the widespread sentiment that Muslim Americans are not being straight with their fellow citizens, that they are hypocrites.

With this year marking the 30th anniversary of the signing of the Basic Treaty of Friendship and Co-operation between Australia and Japan, the just-completed Sydney Symphony concert tour perhaps best exemplifies the new-found harmony between these two once warring nations.

The scene in which the boys count their new-found wealth is a series of quick shots of the money arranged in several different configurations. The first scene of the movie features a house constructing itself around them as they imagine their new home. Some of the film’s visual quirks effectively illustrate childhood imaginativeness, but most seem to exist simply so the audience has something interesting at which to look...
