...goes horribly awry when a fly enters his telepod - composed by Oscar-winner Howard Shore, conducted by celebrated tenor Plácido Domingo, and directed by Cronenberg. The director sat down with TIME's Jeffrey T. Iverson on the eve of The Fly's world premiere in Paris this summer to talk about the hidden complexities of the horror genre, the challenges facing modern opera, his turbulent relationship with Hollywood and the Cronenberg philosophy of life...
...Indian government hasn't addressed these tough issues, leaving Kashmir angry and restive. And so all it took to shatter Kashmir's fragile peace was one blunder - the tone-deaf move this summer to transfer those 100 acres of land near Amarnath. It set off not one but two ferocious protest movements - by Hindu nationalists and by Kashmiri separatists - who have fueled each other's frenzy...
...Spin Cycle Complete Over the summer the Sotheby's sale - which has one of those wonderfully daft Hirst titles, "Beautiful Inside My Head Forever" - got the kind of presale treatment that Boeing and Airbus give the rollout of a new jetliner.

"The Poles all came here expecting gold coming from heaven," says Smolicz. For many, the reality has been less sublime. Earlier this summer, a Polish couple in the English city of Lincoln who'd had trouble finding steady work committed suicide, leaving behind an 11-year-old daughter. The U.K.-based Polish Times followed up with a cover story on poverty among Polish migrants. "People who work abroad are perceived in Poland as very rich...
