...problem might have been finding shared ground with the new Administration in Washington. Blair and the President - both committed Christians, both prepared to intervene in crises overseas - had some obvious things in common. More surprisingly, so did Campbell and Bush: a passion for running, and perhaps also the wordless empathy of the man's man, fueled on testosterone - both were once heavy drinkers, both now abjure the bottle. Campbell regularly enters competitive races to raise money for leukemia research (his best friend and his best friend's daughter died of the disease). One check he keeps as a souvenir came...
...Blair was also able to forge a bond with Clinton's successor. More surprisingly, the chippy Campbell found common ground with President Bush: a passion for running, and perhaps also the wordless empathy of the man's man, fuelled on testosterone. Both were once heavy drinkers, both now abjure the bottle. Campbell regularly enters competitive races to raise money for leukemia research (his best friend and his best friend's daughter died of the disease). One check he keeps as a souvenir came from Bush. The two men were sitting in a room in Northern Ireland between set-piece public...

Yeon (the actress Zia) switches her affection from her faithless husband to a condemned killer (Taiwanese star Chang Chen) who keeps trying to commit suicide. Both, the movie says, are doomed, but to Yeon life is made precious...
...number of dance interludes, which are dreamlike and performed mostly to words and not music. Often, even during the more realistic scenes, the actors move in a dance-like way, contrasting with Lucie’s stomping, heavy steps. After her death, there is an incredible, wordless scene that consists of Lucie and Jean moving into different poses as he dreams of her, interspersed with fades to black...
...couldn't imagine," said Wilson's former foster mother, Norma Garley, nearly wordless. "Something like that happening to somebody in my family." Garley and her family took Wilson in at age seven, after the girl was sexually abused by family members. When Wilson was 14 social workers moved her, but the Garleys kept in touch and Wilson telephoned them just before December 2001, when she vanished. Until the trial, the Garleys had no idea the girl they called "Running Bear," the name honoring Wilson's aboriginal heritage, had grown up to become a drug addict selling sex on Downtown Eastside...
