...that purpose. (As Philadelphia Phil, Rapaport spends almost all of his scant eight minutes of screen time chanting and jeering in a sports bar). Though the plot leaves a few loose ends, these work within the film’s internal logic. The Quantrell Bishop storyline is abandoned in order to focus on Paul’s meeting with Philadelphia Phil, but in the scope of the film, this makes sense.

If the developer, Sun Hung Kai, finds buyers at that price, the three-level penthouse dwellings, perched atop the 93-storey Cullinan towers with sweeping views of Hong Kong's harbor, could well qualify as the world's most expensive apartments. More than 4,000 sq. ft. in size, the apartments, which are still under construction, are selling for $9,677 per sq. ft. That's considerably...
