...Bollywood Goes Global "Queen Of Bollywood," on India's moviemakers and actress Aishwarya Rai, was disappointing [Oct. 27]. I especially disagree with Alex Perry's observation that Rai's unchallenged position in the industry is because of her determined pursuit of "different, against the grain" roles, such as her 1997 part in Iruvar. Iruvar was one of Rai's first films, and her contribution was mostly decorative. She has done the same thing in many other films to date.

Mason ’04), an actress who is campaigning to free Brodie (Stephen J. Quinlan ’04), a soldier jailed at an anti-missile protest for starting a fire on the Cenotaph using the wreath of the unknown solider as kindling. Early in the play, Henry and Annie leave their respective spouses, Max (Alexander...
Crowe's life is now significantly calmer. In the study of his vast apartment, where we lunch on calamari and ginger beer, there is a picture of Danielle Spencer, the Australian singer and actress he married this past April. Spencer is pregnant with Crowe's first child, a son, due in January. I ask if domesticity has calmed him, and he raises a hand: Eat, then interview. When lunch is over, he says, "I'm sure regardless of my marriage and impending fatherhood, certain things shift just because of age." One of those things is that he no longer goes...
