...small businesses and end tax and regulatory breaks enjoyed by large corporations. He also wants to review the North American Free Trade Agreement, which has hurt Mexican farmers by deluging the market with cheap food imports.

...fate of human beings, since we all depend on the health of our ecosystem. Tadashi Kawabe Fukuoka, Japan Of Illness and Morality time's interview with evangelist Franklin Graham [May 29] astonished me.

It's best to see this session as a holding action between Cannes '05, when Caché, A History of Violence, Sin City, Once You're Born and The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada lent their luster to a generally strong slate, and Cannes '07, when the world's largest film festival will turn 60.
