...little tough to envision superstars car-pooling, but there is evidence that Hollywood sees green as more than just the color of the box office receipts. The producers of the Steve Carrel comedy Evan Almighty worked with the Conservation Fund to make the film carbon neutral, from the first script sessions to the ultra-light DVD packaging. (The movie bombed, but at least it made a lighter impact on the Earth when it did.)

Hunter discovers her script has been outsourced to India; Linney tries to overcome her writer-less life with a 12-step meeting and a box of cards from the "Scene It?" trivia game; Penn mouths words the audience can't hear; Clarkson and Amy Ryan deliver an impassioned reading of the phone book.
