Henry, who won the Pulitzer Prize for criticism in 1980 when he was with the Boston Globe, delights in his visits to Way-Off Broadway?regional theaters where the work may lack Broadway sheen, but can be imaginative and daring. "My predecessor at TIME, Ted Kalem, used to say, 'When I go to a theater in Cleveland, they don't ask what's happening in Detroit.' Well, times have changed, and now when I go to Ashland, Ore., they do ask me what's happening in San Diego...
...playing the nattering alterkocker (though he's the same age, 72, as Dench). Hounsou may be tiring of playing the iconic African, but Hollywood obviously hasn't wearied of seeing him do it. From a rich rogue's gallery of featured players, Wahlberg was chosen over Alec Baldwin, Martin Sheen and Jack Nicholson.

Spread out on an elegant looking table were his powder blue and exquisite pink herringbone spread-collar shirts, wrapped with ribbon and placed delicately in a silver sheen box.

To judge a pearl's luster, hold it under a light. If you see a bright, sharp reflection, the pearl has high luster and most likely a higher price...
...Seems like everybody wants a little piece of that Kennedy magic—Anthony Hopkins, Lindsay Lohan, Sharon Stone, Elijah Wood, William H. Macy, Demi Moore, Martin Sheen, Heather Graham, Helen Hunt, and Christian Slater to name a few. Unfortunately, this over-the-top movie star-apalooza merely signals what’s to come—a bombardment of hyperbolic political maxims and religious statements that are better suited for an Al Sharpton rally than a thoughtful movie...
