...around her hips, wades about 10 yards out into the shallows of the Atlantic and turns back toward the beach. "And action!" director Lee Tamahori calls through a megaphone. Berry dips under the surface, pops back up, runs her hands through her hair, then sashays toward shore, her wet skin glistening in the sunlight. Tamahori asks her to do it again. And again. Then he has her swim toward the camera. "And action!" Cut, action, cut, action, one final "Cut!"--and the set bursts into applause...

One man is strapped to a burning stake and his skin burned to a crispy, Mandarin Duck orange. Another is splayed upside down and castrated, his engorged genitals plopping into a cup as an official puckishly plants a white plume to mark the spot of the surgery.
