...gave rise to reports, never substantiated, of drug use. (Early this year, after enduring Joaquin Phoenix's epic of incoherence, Letterman said, "We owe an apology to Farrah Fawcett.") A post-Majors boyfriend, screenwriter James Orr, was charged with battering her for rejecting his marriage proposal. And she somehow endured a mostly on-again quarter-century relationship with the legendarily truculent Ryan O'Neal, once the charming star of Love Story, later the provocateur of so much domestic misery that he was dubbed "Hollywood's worst father" by the British Daily Mail. (Fawcett's and O'Neal's son Redmond...
...somehow missed Bay's first Transformers two summers ago. I'd like to think I magnanimously stepped aside to give some eager young male colleague the pleasure of reviewing it. Perhaps I feigned illness. Watching it on DVD this past week, I found it more fun than I expected, and loads better than the sequel. I even became almost fond of Bumblebee, the Autobot/Camaro who functions as Sam's pet and protector, even as the premise of vehicles morphing into robots continued to seem preposterous to me.

If a North Korean shot somehow draws close, Marine General James Cartwright, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said on June 16 that he felt "very comfortable," predicting that existing U.S. missile defenses have a 90% chance of destroying it in flight...
...skeptical of Michael Cera, who think he has been playing very slight variations on himself since his Arrested Development days. In Juno he was the affable guy with the earnest delivery, who came across as self-effacing, but also so utterly unperturbed by his own absent chin that he somehow became plausible as a romantic lead. In Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, the apparently innate peevishness, a whine that pays homage to the hunting mosquito, which had worked so well in Superbad, had begun to grate, but it was still clear that the movie would have been completely, instead...
