...working at 8 p.m. you're not successful. I feel like I'm on holiday." The conversation quickly turns to comparisons. "Berlin is like Paris in the '30s," Andorlini says. "It's a place where artists gather and things spring out of nothing." Grazioli isn't so sure. "It's more like New York in the '60s," he says. "All those abandoned lofts in SoHo." (See a TIME video on the the words - and deeds - that brought down the Berlin Wall...

The governor amassed his fortune as a tobacco-plantation owner and travels in a private plane and in a bulletproof Hummer. He is an epitome of Philippine politics...
...pictures have amassed nearly two-thirds of their theatrical revenue in foreign countries. Moviegoers are no more sophisticated overseas, and Emmerich plays to the universal demands for mega-hits: throw little people into a giant disaster, put all the major information in pictures, not dialogue, and make sure that stuff blows up great. With 2012 seemingly headed for a $500 million worldwide take (which it will need to earn back its gigantic budget), Emmerich will underline his status as the most successful openly gay director of all time.
