...Marshall decided to strike out on their own. "We wanted to have a family"--the traditional kind, says Kennedy. (They have two daughters, 9 and 11.) "We didn't want to become movie moguls and move into being executives within a company. We like making movies." Husband and wife produce films separately as well as together. Bourne is Marshall's baby, Diving Bell Kennedy's. Crystal Skull is a joint project. What the two share is a basic philosophy: "We're helping the director get his or her vision up onscreen," says Marshall...

I know many constitutionalist libertarians who by definition support and love the idea of limited government for certain purposes, as specified in the Constitution. How could we love the Constitution and be against government in all its manifestations?

Several years ago, noted baritone and TIME subscriber Robert Goulet wrote a fan letter--on gold-embossed stationery--to my friend and fellow writer Joel Stein. Soon after, a trip to Las Vegas was booked, with Joel graciously bringing me along to dine with Robert and his wife Vera beneath Picassos at the Bellagio. There were stories about Richard Burton and Ed Sullivan, choruses of Camelot and a few empty bottles. More Goulet dinners followed, each one unforgettable in its own way. Robert was famous for almost 50 years. He got the best tables and told great stories about people...
