...time-starved society that is waking earlier and has a slew of evening-entertainment options, the morning news shows have effectively become the new nightly news. The flagship evening broadcasts have been in a decades-long ratings tailspin, while the morning shows' mix of quick news and consumer tips has clicked with a populace that has shifted its focus from international to national news and from national to my news--my health, my kids, my money.

...Marc Anthony (yes the salsa master) gives a jarring, sometimes awkward, but overall effective performance as Noel, an unstable street urchin who violently shakes out his lines with the aid of a dreadlocks wig last seen on Sideshow Bob of "Simpsons" fame.

...director Spike Jonze is basking in the glow of his meaty supporting role acting in Three Kings. The producer Michael Stipe is also the frontman for R.E.M.--and, incidentally, likes to wear sparkly eyeshadow. Curlyheaded screenwriter Charlie Kaufman doubled as the executive producer of the film (and has a slew of strange projects in development). John Cusack likes to direct himself. Cameron Diaz likes to change the color of her hair - for the interview, long brunette tresses, in case you wondered. And then there's the real John Malkovich himself. No, he isn't quite as creepy in person. Well...
