...spoke for the first time since March. "He expressed his congratulations, and we talked about attempting to set a new tone and attempting to work together constructively," Daschle said. "It was a very nice conversation." And it may have been a start. Thanks to a stern, quiet man named Jeffords, Bush may finally have the opportunity to create the kind of Washington he promised last fall...
...wrenching story - of a happy family riven by the teenage son's death - in acutely somber vignettes that avoid the seductions of sentimentality and melodrama. The Piano Teacher stirs up a tasty poison porridge of lusts and hatreds between a precocious pianist (Benoît Magimel) and his stern tutor (Isabelle Huppert); in chic, lurid images it suggests that teachers, perhaps all adults, try to express and exorcise their frustrations by dominating their charges. In coarser hands, this tale of obsession and self-mutilation could be ludicrous from the start; in these hands it is goofy only toward...
...personal sweetheart - sort of your average supermodel and unlike any female body I or anyone I know have ever experienced - it's time to pick a face. Nika looks kind of stuck-up and bitchy. Ditto for Celine. Also, she reportedly slept with U.S. radio shock jock Howard Stern and that's just gross. The Japanese doll, Mai, looks a bit too schoolgirlish with her pigtails. I decide on Stacy.

Jill Sprecher, director of 13 Conversations, says that while Stipe was making Reveal in a studio in Dublin, Ireland, last year, he would regularly call top actors, pushing them to take a role. "I think the reason we got the cast...
...course the domestic redundancies of my bigamous friend and of polygamous Green are different in spirit, or at least in arrangement. Green - a stern, bearded, and Biblical sort of character - has lived, without duplicity, the life of a robust gnu. This begetting is hard work. The Sultan of Pasha without the silks, he collected all his wives there in the desert, and they share a common life. My friend, by contrast, conducted a symmetrical, binary life covertly - keeping the right hand ignorant of the left hand's adventures. I think, paradoxically, that in his deepest heart, my friend...
