...espionage. But it seems nobody told the prosecutors, who spent the first day of Lee's bail hearing Tuesday painting him as public enemy number Wen. First Lee's former boss, Richard Krajcek, testified that Lee admitted to failing an FBI polygraph on which he said he never spied for China. Krajcek went on to describe documents Lee is known to have placed on an insecure computer mainframe as the "crown jewels" of American military secrets. Then a FBI agent said that Lee had a clandestine meeting with Chinese officials in a Beijing hotel room on an Energy Department trip...
...heavy bombing and blitzing of Chechnya are making it into another Kosovo. Man is stupid, isn't he? He never learns from past mistakes. It wasn't very long ago that the tragedy of Kosovo occurred or that the Bosnians were butchered. Russia must be stopped from killing innocent men, women and children. All people have a right to express themselves and to strive to gain their independence. Haven't the East Timorese made progress in obtaining their freedom?

There is one scene that haunts the heart: an ethereally beautiful blind girl (Xun Zhou) kills herself after the assassin has eradicated the rest of her family. Few directors can create such indelible imagery; Chen does it in nearly every frame...
...result is a hard-striving, convoluted movie, which never quite becomes the smoothly reciprocating engine Anderson (who did Boogie Nights) would like it to be. Indeed, only one of his tales is fully persuasive. That's the one about the Partridge family, which is not to be confused with the nice folks from '70s TV. The patriarch, Earl (Robards), is dying of cancer, a metaphor for decay that Anderson likes too much. Earl's trophy wife (Moore), who married him for his money, has decided she actually loves the old guy and is in a guilty frenzy to prove...
