...film recounts the details of the night Polanski brought 13-year-old Samantha Gailey to Jack Nicholson's house for a magazine photo shoot and allegedly gave her champagne and quaaludes before having sex with her. Gailey, now Samantha Geimer, tells the story from her point of view in the film, saying she's not angry with Polanski. Polanski, now 74, declined to participate in Zenovich's movie. "He felt it would look like self-promotion," Zenovich says. "He said I don't want to seem like a prima donna. I want to help you but it's just...
...opera. I'm going to direct a small opera this year. I used to go a lot, but [operas] go until 11:30 at night. I get up at 5:30 a.m. and get my exercise and ablutions done-sometimes my clarinet practice even before I go out to shoot. I just can't keep those late hours...

Part of it is, you're economical. Tony shot about a nine hour day the first day. He knew exactly what...
...would help if people were more camera-happy. Taking photos of artworks before they go missing makes it much easier for police to find them once they're gone. That seems obvious, but few churches take the time to point and shoot. So insurers and investigators must find other ways to keep track of religious paintings and icons. Ecclesiastical Insurance, a company based in Gloucester, England, that insures 97% of the churches in the U.K., has given free Alpha-Dot kits to all its customers. Stuck on the frame of a painting or at the base of a statue...
