...Grant was a fantastically careful man. In the really old films the men were dressed wonderfully, and it’s amazing what these men can do with their handkerchiefs. Bing Crosby, in the early films, is amazing. His handkerchief is hanging down like a dog’s tail, everything else is impeccable. It’s sort of this licensed area of mess.THC: I see you’re wearing a handkerchief.GT: My grandfathers always did. They’re actually quite useful, you know. It’s amazing how many times you have to give someone...

...also snoozing. When the First Lady's motorcade took off, we all screamed at him to step on it, but he had trouble navigating the narrow car-bomb barriers at the embassy gate, and the motorcade was nowhere to be found. Even worse, as it turned out the tail-end of the motorcade, including the ambulance and some police cars, was now behind us. Once we got predictably stuck in Roman traffic, the Secret Service press agent on board our bus told the driver to let the police take the lead. The unmarked white Taurus, siren wailing, jumped in front...

But otherwise, the young engineers must go it alone.Martinez and his group faced a formidable task: Recreate with man-made materials a vicious scorpion’s tail on a grander scale—and affix the giant hinged metal contraption atop a dune buggy.

...movies -- bell-bottoms, sex, monsters, drug use and murder -- and twists them in unexpected ways to explore psychology, symbolism and the weirdness of growing up. A sexually transmitted disease called "the bug" mutates its teenage victims in creepy, disfiguring ways, giving one an extra mouth, and another a little tail. But rather than making his protagonists fall in love while battling freaks, Burns makes them deal with the alienation of getting infected. Drawn in a detailed, high-contrast black and white style where you can count every nascent hair on a teenage lip, Burns' images will have your skin crawling...

...Disney cartoon, with a storytelling sense and graphic precision worthy of the old animation masters. The title character (voiced by Zach Braff) has huge glasses, a studious mien, not the best posture. And, oh, is this chick adorable, whether trying to win a chaotic baseball game or shaking a tail feather in his patented chicken dance. At a pace as sprightly and assured as the great old Warner Bros. cartoons, the movie flirts with alien abductions, crop circles, Streisand jokes and familial reconciliation. The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, which extends Park?s Oscar-winning stop-motion short films...
