And the marketers at Artisan Entertainment, who built fervid want-see for the film through cunning use of the Internet, have been credited with revolutionizing the way films are sold...

A professional since 1996, Sanchez last year became the first woman to perform in Spain's hallowed Las Ventas ring, a triumphal appearance in which she proved she could sever a bull's ear with the best of them.
