Besides superb acting (especially by Day-Lewis), one of the film’s greatest strengths is its aestheticism. The camera seems magnetically pulled into close-ups of faces, flowers, mirrors, textures, and bodies, constantly forcing the viewer to look at these surfaces for what they are, instead of what they mean...

...thing on both counts. Chuck could be a jealous spouse, so when a sex scene was to be shot, Damiano would send him away on an errand. And Reems had a chance to display his indefatigable performance skills, as a burlesque comic and sex worker, made the enterprise very viewer-friendly. "Harry wasn't a great actor," says long-time porn entrepreneur Fred Lincoln, "but he was a great fucker."

...also be used as a photo viewer, allowing you to build slideshows, and an MP3 player. But you'll probably want to hang on to your regular MP3 device. The PSP lacks any kind of native play list or photo organizer, relying instead on the order of the files as they appear on the memory card to determine the order of play.

It does not support...
