...Leguizamo and De la Reguera are the film's only Hollywood stars, and they deliver stellar supporting performances. But Brand gets superb portrayals from his Colombian leads: Angelica Blandon as the teen sexpot Reina; and Aldemar Correa, whom Brand calls "the next Gael Garcia Bernal," as her bewildered boyfriend Marlon. Blandon and Correa, who were discovered in Medellin's theater scene, play lower-middle-class kids driven less by economic straits than by a gratuitous belief that even the worst of the U.S. is preferable to the best their own country can give them.

Dirk Kuyt sealed the victory for Liverpool on the fourth kick, an honor richly...
...View from Valencia With regard to Geoff Pingree's article on Valencia's new opera house [Feb. 26]: My husband and I have been to four performances at the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofía. We can understand why people are dazzled by the hall's "curved walls, rolling stairways; turquoise reflecting pools topped by a detached, featherlike roof." Artistic quality is indeed high, and the acoustics are excellent. Each seat is equipped with a small screen allowing you to see the libretto in one of several languages. But surely, for the €325 million that the building...
