...vengeful FTC apparently spent the next half-decade sublimating in a 60-page report with all the appalled earnestness of a freshman college paper, only with really nice 3-D color charts. At one point it reads: "An ad for a product made from ground-up shells of shrimps, crabs and lobster asks, 'Have you ever seen an overweight fish?'... In fact there is no convincing evidence that the shells of shrimps, crabs or lobsters cause weight loss." Not only that, but, as I accidentally proved in third grade, you can indeed get a fish so fat that it will...

Still, he seemed like a nice guy, until I found out that Cleland, 53, weighs 150 lbs. and is 5 ft. 11 in. This diet-ad thing, apparently, is just a way of rubbing people's faces...

...much to ask a committed filmmaker to offer sympathy for the devil? Is it possible, for that matter, to provide a lucid, nuanced portrait of children in distress? Yes, says Christophe Ruggia's Les Diables, about two abandoned kids - Joseph (Vincent Rottiers) and his autistic sister Chloé (Adèle Haenell) - searching for their home. Joseph is Chloé's protector and, if he were only old enough to realize it, her lover, with all the devotion and myopia true love entails. Harrowing and delicate, this French film transcends case history to become a work of seamless...
