...only two actors turned directors won even an Oscar nomination for directing: Orson Welles for Citizen Kane and Laurence Olivier for Hamlet. And they were so mammoth, so legendary, that few actors dared imitate them. The auteur corps was replenished by craftsmen who made their names as writers, cameramen and editors and by directors imported from the stage and TV, but not by actors...
Ascendant pop star Tricia Chen is questioning her choice of a career as she stands in five centimeters of water surrounded by eight professional dancers and a Stonehenge-like grouping of Styrofoam pillars. It is 10 p.m., and she, along with 35 crew members, cameramen, dancers and friends, is in a cavernous Hong Kong studio shooting her second music video of the day.

He emerged from hiding last week dressed in a suit that could only be described as North Korean chic, flanked by a trio of mustachioed goons in sunglasses and a host of cameramen whose apparent task was to record the faces and questions of every reporter. Whatever the intended message, the impression was clear: as a politician, Prabhakaran would make an excellent military dictator. Asked if he still stood by a long-standing vow that his men should kill him if he ever...
