Sporting a neat beard and looking like a handsome Paul Simon without the emerging pate, Rudolph gazed out at the assembled journalists with all the aplomb of a seasoned schlepper of the talk show-press conference circuit who knows that this time around, he's got something special to market. And so it is with the 32-year old director; in Rudolph's case however, his heady success...
