...traditionally the country's liberal, non-Islamist party. "How can a well-planned assassination attempt take place in the heart of Dhaka without the complicity and involvement of the government?" she told TIME. The government flatly denies the charge, calling it "ridiculous," but Hasina's followers are in no mood to believe this. Bangladesh's already polarized political culture?in which the ruling party and the opposition routinely charge each other with criminal behavior?has turned even more toxic. After the grenade blasts, the opposition called a two-day nationwide strike that turned violent, left hundreds of people injured, brought...

...Decoder Ring's score has the crystalline quality of ice forming - Kelly calls it "glock rock." To get in the mood, the band spent two weeks in a makeshift studio near Kiama, on the N.S.W. South Coast. "We took a Method approach," explains FitzGerald. The acting analogy is apt, since the music provides much of Heidi's inner voice. You can hear it in Heidi's Theme, where a delicate xylophone arpeggio rises above the earthier glockenspiel, perhaps symbolizing Worthington's character Joe. But it's not all so harmonious.

His mood did not improve following a clumsy 6-point victory over Euro doormat--but home favorite--Greece, and he was hardly buoyant after a 10-point win over Australia: "We've got athletes. They've got basketball players. They've got kids that are truly committed to being part...

...Zhang Ziyi, Crouching Tiger's young star, is a Zhang Yimou discovery. Decades ago, Li and Yen trained together as teens in Beijing, which lends their rain-soaked battle the tang of an ancient schoolyard grudge match. Leung and Cheung, who smoldered so wistfully in Wong's In the Mood for Love, get to express the gamut of emotions as a couple who know each other's tricks. They are Rhett and Scarlett, Tristan and Isolde, and they end their time together in an image so startling and beautiful that it stabs the viewer's astonished heart...
