...first we get hints that Stone is up to his nifty old tricks. It's a hazing session of Yale's Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity, where the forced guzzling of whiskey is the gentleman scholar's equivalent of waterboarding. The other pledges are frightened, but Dubya (Josh Brolin, who's game but not great) impresses his brothers by not only rattling off their names but also appending a goofy nickname to each. In two lightning strokes, W. provides a reference point for the Bush Administration's interrogation techniques of terrorist suspects and imagines an early example of Bush's frat...
...also took the occasion to show off another of her many wigs, along with a crocheted headdress dripping with beads and feathers.

...revelations spread, and the great, monolithic equilibrium of chance reigns free. Set in 1980, the plot centers around Josh Brolin’s character, a hunter and Vietnam veteran who stumbles upon a suitcase containing several million dollars, left in the desert unclaimed when a drug deal goes bad. Brolin quickly finds himself in the crosshairs of unsavory bounty hunters, as the movers of the product look to reclaim their investment. The homicidal Anton Chigurh, played flawlessly by Javier Bardem (“Mar Adentro”), counts himself among these mercenaries. Bardem, a merciless machine, pivots on the peculiar...
