...rock. Flick a peek to one side and catch a pair of two-ton white rhinos who seem to have sleepy-mean eyes to butt the tram (hatari!). And don't miss the gawky East African crowned cranes off to the right. The driver turns on a radio, a sweet Swahili tune (Hapa Dunianai by the Voices of Celebration) wafts through the air, and the cranes turn into an impromptu chorus line, stepping gracefully to the music...

...also too much of a muddle. There is no logical way to arrange the kind of romantic reconciliation the writer, director (Nicholas Hytner) and we desperately want to enjoy. For neither Wasserstein nor Rudd quite wants to come to grips with the fact that George, despite his sweet smiles, is a careless, selfish man.

Set in the bootlegging world of the 1920s, the Newton Boys (Matthew McConaughey, Vincent D'Onofrio, Ethan Hawke and Skeet Ulrich) are America's most successful bank robbers, and are portrayed as sweet, Southern-drawling teenage heartthrobs.
