Blunt (The Devil Wears Prada) makes Norah's very inaction riveting, while Adams has the unusual gift of being able to convey sweet conviction without ever straying into cloying territory. She'd be an ideal companion to share a life raft with. (Who else could have made Enchanted so enchanting?)

...Ramaswamy and his business partner David A. Kosslyn ’11 created their own Web site called PhrazIt, a site that allows users to easily browse and share reviews on various products and services. The pair spent their entire summer last year working with an incubator program, a venture capital firm that focuses on very early stages of company development. Now that the site is up and running, Ramaswamy and Kosslyn no longer need to devote their full time to the project...
