...would be a wonderful, good deed if you would all forgive me so that I can go back to college to finish my studies in child psychology." DAWNETTE KNIGHT, in a letter of apology to Catherine Zeta-Jones, after being charged with stalking and threatening the film star
...KILLED. FRANCISCO ORTIZ FRANCO, 48, editor and co-founder of the Mexican newsweekly Zeta, famed for its reporting campaigns against the country's drug cartels; by a masked gunman; in Tijuana.

"I don't know that we want to do something again where that was the obligation," says Joel. They cast Hanks because he could pull off the potentially over-the-top role of a classics-obsessed Southern criminal. "Tom can do that sort of stuff without it being shtick," says Ethan, 46, sitting with his brother at a Los Angeles diner...
