...beginning to wonder if the event-a goofy affair under the best of circumstances-had gone fatally exotic. Paul had one of the largest groups of supporters. So did Kansas Senator Sam Brownback, who provided a massive air-conditioned tent that looked something like the Denver airport and featured nonstop evangelical preachers and a Christian rock band that strip-mined Stevie Wonder for songs like Signed, Sealed, Delivered, Jesus, I'm Yours. Colorado Congressman Tom Tancredo's promise that he would actually deport 20 million illegal immigrants seemed to have toxic allure for many of the alleged 30,000 Republicans...

...this third and possibly final episode, directed by Paul Greengrass from a script by Tony Gilroy, Scott Z. Burns and George Nolfi, the series has come close to attaining a kinetic perfection. If Ridley Scott's Black Hawk Down was the all-war war movie - nearly two hours of nonstop battles - The Bourne Ultimatum is the all-action action movie.

...Queer Duck, though also California-made, couldn't be farther from Ratatouille. No family film, this; it's a bathhouse vaudeville of nonstop gay gags and homoneurotic songs. The movie sends its main character, Adam Seymour Duckstein, away from his menagerie of friends and lovers (Openly Gator, Bi-Polar Bear, Oscar Wildcat) to be deprogrammed by a preacher. After a dose of an ungaying potion, Queer Duck pronounces himself in love with Cameron Diaz and Camryn Manheim. Liza shows...

...would summon waiters at the Majestic Bar in Cannes with a shouted "Irving!" Another was, is, Dusty Cohl, the cowboy-hatted Canadian lawyer who helped found the Toronto Film Festival. Roger became close friends of Dusty and his wife Joan; and when they launched the Floating Film Festival (nonstop movies and movie talk on a cruise ship), Roger eagerly signed on as a presenter. Mary and I came along for the ride, and the Festival has now sailed 10 times. The Corlisses and the Ebert-Hammelsmiths have made every...
