Once Gondry had secured Sunshine’s cast—which also includes Kate Winslet, Kirsten Dunst, Tom Wilkinson, Elijah Wood and Mark Ruffalo—Kaufman says he made no effort to re-tailor his script to their dimensions. Speaking now of the fine points of shooting the film, he continues to use characters’ script names rather than those of the actors who play them...
...Calvin Klein is the icon of minimalism, Ralph Lauren the elegant esquire and Donna Karan the workingwoman's tailor, Jacobs is the eclectic sampler who has ushered in an era of sophisticated charm in fashion. His uncanny ability to give street-wise looks a luxurious twist--a thermal undershirt made of cashmere, or cropped cargo pants turned into tuxedo pants--has made him one of the most carefully watched--and desired--designers in the business. The $1,000-plus Murakami bag, a collaboration with Japanese artist Takashi Murakami, generated more than $300 million in sales for Vuitton last year...
...utterly divergent. I don’t think Pharrell and Chad have ever really cared about the voice in their music (ignoring the former’s penchant for crooning), or about “musicality” by extension, because their tracks don’t seem tailor-made for anyone. “Hot In Herre” may still be their finest moment, with its awesomely self-assured drum break that, especially on the floor, feels like James Brown made into Robocop.

The move toward the straight and narrow was launched in large part by Browne, 38, who favors what he calls the Congressman suit--the lean look favored by J.F.K...
...fresh face, but apparently not too fresh. Senator John Edwards has the face of Prince Charming but a working-class life story as the son of a millworker. He has poured millions of dollars into the state and put forward a set of populist ideas that would seem tailor-made for Iowa. But it has yet to come together for the first-term Senator from North Carolina, who has the most upbeat, positive appeal in the race. He says he is in the race to win, though even his Iowa co-chairwoman, Roxanne Conlin, concedes that a third-or fourth...
