Logan, from which half the 9/11 hijackers staged their attack, may now be the most secure airport in the nation, and it wants to be a model of what other airports may become. It was the first major airport to screen all bags for explosives last January with full-scale bomb-detection machines. It formed the nation's first airport-based Anti-Terrorism Unit of troopers who prowl the concourses toting submachine guns. It has set up a perimeter stretching 250 ft. into Boston Harbor that puts the airport off limits to boaters. And state troopers conduct random vehicle searches...
Look closely at this picture. It shows something you have never seen before: Dustin Hoffman and Gene Hackman occupying the same piece of celluloid.

"He said," recalled Jones, "'I feel like a little man in a little boat on a big ocean, but I know who is in the boat with...
...distribution and licensing rights for a seven-figure sum. (Chan's 1998 Jackie Chan vehicle Who Am I? and Gen-X Cops were both distributed overseas by Columbia TriStar.) Like his previous action flicks, Heroic Duo goes for the mainstream jugular, but this time Benny Chan devotes enough screen time to character development so that you care (slightly) about these characters before they're blown to smithereens...
