...There's enough plot in Tell No One to furnish three thrillers, and though the film's action is driven by this complex (and impossible to briefly describe) narrative. The film, a French adaptation of a novel by the American thriller writer Harlan Coben, relies for its seductive power on its characters and their relationships.

...story in the Italian daily he owns, Il Giornale, recounted how the 71-year-old Prime Minister last Saturday passed up Communion, but asked the local bishop at the chapel near his villa on the island of Sardinia to reconsider the standing rules. Bishop Sebastiano Sanguinetti reportedly responded: "Go tell that to someone higher than me." There was no indication that Berlusconi had raised the matter when he met the pontiff earlier this month at the Vatican...
