...style editing. The movie doesn’t quite shock and doesn’t quite awe. But it does achieve a subtler success: it captures the difference between the disjointed world of war and the smooth, clearly-labeled sound bytes of the coverage on the nightly news. (SEM...
...turns out, much of the fun of The Preservationist lies with Noe's daughters-in-law, who furnish him with a chatty, catty shipboard peanut gallery. His eldest son Sem (usually spelled Shem) is married to unflappable, pragmatic Bera, who gets stuck with a lot of the animal-gathering chores. "The problem with people who think that God will provide," she remarks tartly, "is that they think God will provide."

If he doesn't, Thaksin may find his vaunted mandate...
...unlikely that anyone could have rescued last week's victims. Both Segodnya and Itogi had earned the Kremlin's disapproval for their clear-eyed reporting on embarrassments such as the Kursk submarine disaster and the quagmire in Chechnya. The publications were owned by Gusinsky's Sem Dnei publishing house, of which Gazprom held a 25% stake plus one share; another 25% was held by Sem Dnei's president, Dmitry Biryukov.
