...pleasure to report that the new Rush Hour is... OK. Brett Ratner, who directed the first two episodes (as well as the third X-Men and the Hannibal Lecter movie Red Dragon), isn't out to win an Oscar here; the movie is as lacking in visual elegance as it is in pretension. Its first reel or two sets a fairly low bar for the viewer, so that when it perks up it exceeds expectations.

...less reluctant to give London a makeover for Blowup. "I actually painted trees, streets, houses. ... I changed a small part of London to make it more London than London." Under his brush, the grass was greener, the phone booths a more violent red. (Redgrave was given auburn hair.) The intent this time was not political. It was to show the power that a visual artist has over reality - and the limits of that power...
