...knowing, without anyone complaining. Kids as troubled as Harris and Klebold aren't likely to stop making bombs one day and decide what they really should do is talk to an ex-jock principal about what's bugging them. And an alienated teen probably wouldn't expose his interior life during a well-attended extracurricular event. But DeAngelis says the official police report on Columbine, set for release in January, will show that the school wasn't a brutish place where cool kids humiliated outcasts every...
...movie not only plays wonderfully, it looked gorgeous. From the stark isolation of the mountainous orphanage and the gray and white sterility of its interior to the rolling shores of the coast and the vast stretches of the apple farms, the movie is set against a stunning landscape. Director Lasse Hallstrom (What's Eating Gilbert Grape?, Something to Talk About, Abba: The Movie) strikes a balance between the dourness of the orphanage with the optimism of the coast, while not letting the movie get too caught up in either locale...
...Artschwagers sculptures look equally foreign; his wooden structures, built to resemble either furniture or boxes, would be highly unnatural in any environment.

By carving out space where conventional forms would otherwise protrude, at the top of the bed, for instance, Artschwager complicates his works further. He negates...
...Moments such as these, however, are too scarce in a film that ends up expending most of its energy working through two major structural problems: an increasingly absurd plot and the difficulties of adapting a novel that consists primarily of first person interior narration. Jordan unadvisedly takes a literal approach here, employing the most drab, extensive set of voiceovers since the awful pre-director's cut version of Blade Runner. (Haven't seen it? Don't.) Fiennes, a subtle actor, is forced to explicitly identify every emotional state his character enters. Does Bendrix really need to tell us how "tortured...
...lined with fast-food restaurants on another. At least the view of Manhattan is magnificent--as Shemmer leads me on a tour of the office I take in the architecture of the bridge and an unobstructed view of the city, all the way to the Empire State Building. The interior look is upscale "Dilbert"--partners' offices surrounding rows of cubicles done up in a tasteful grey...
