...Five shooting bays allow officers to shoot at targets up to 50 feet away. A mock-up of a house stands in one corner, for hostage scenarios. The thick cement back wall of the range is pock-marked with bullet holes. At the wall's base, in piles of sand, lie hundreds of flattened bullets...

...descent continues, for me, until Monday. Then, having hit bottom, I will transform into a human bubble, light as air I will shoot up through the Harvard Trench of finals period, and undergo explosive decompression. I will float right to the top of the mythical mountain, and draw my first pure breath of freedom in more than a month. I can't wait...

...perfect, because I was afraid that on the second or third takes the tears wouldn't come, or the acting wouldn't seem sincere. But on this film, she's been amazing. We have technical problems all time. There's always one reason or another to re-shoot the scene. We're doing five or six takes for every shot. And she cries on command. It only takes her a few seconds to get in and out of character. It has surprised and impressed me. This is real change in Ziyi's acting. Now if I have to shoot...
