No "Sex" on the beach at Cannes
Fernando Meirelles' "Blindness," starring Julianne Moore, to open Cannes fest, with Barry Levinson's "What Just Happened?" as the closer.
Indy, Clint and Che hit the Côte d'Azur
Eastwood's "Changeling" and Soderbergh's four-hour "Che" top an impressive Eurocentric lineup at 61st Cannes festival.
"Into the Wild"
Sean Penn's adaptation of Jon Krakauer's book about a privileged kid's strange, sad quest to find himself is at times quite touching.
"All the King's Men"
What does director Steven Zaillian think he's doing with this bizarre new adaptation of Robert Penn Warren's classic novel?
The Fix
Penn "violates" Coulter voodoo doll. Valderrama rates sex with Moore and Love Hewitt. Plus: Star Jones discusses "boob lift."
The Fix
What Kanye said about Bush before NBC pulled the plug. Sean Penn's boat rescue. Plus: Francis Bean Cobain speaks.
"The Interpreter"
Serious actors Sean Penn and Nicole Kidman star in this very serious movie, the first ever to be filmed inside the U.N.
Dirty Harry or p.c. wimp?
Left-wing critics attacked Clint Eastwood's early work as violently fascistic. Now conservatives blast him as a p.c. apologist and moral relativist. They're both wrong.
"21 Grams"
This dark meditation on death and fate by the director of "Amores Perros" is admirable despite its flaws -- and Sean Penn, Benicio Del Toro and Naomi Watts deliver knockout performances.
"No matter what, life is bigger than death"
Hot director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu talks about "21 Grams," his wrenching new film about three strangers linked by death, hope and destiny.
"Mystic River"
Clint Eastwood brings Dennis Lehane's Boston revenge saga to the screen as a mournful, masculine noir that's also the strongest film of his long career.
The Fix
Madonna likes sex, Colin Farrell likes Sean's wife, Oliver likes Castro too much and Cage likes his comic books more than he likes Lisa Marie!
The Fix
Melanie Griffith bares her tattoo, Bill Clinton draws boos, Snoop Dogg draws fire, and Sean Penn needs driving lessons. Plus: John Lennon on Broadway?
The Fix
Alec Baldwin rants, Sean Penn smokes, Nicole Kidman holds hands, and Rush Limbaugh makes things up! Plus: Could Meg Ryan be in love?
Wishing upon a star
The left looks to Hollywood to help rally antiwar sentiment. Soap Operas United to Win Without War, anyone?
"The Weight of Water"
Yes, this Sean Penn-Elizabeth Hurley period drama was stalled for two years. It's still better than a lot of movies that get released right away.
Sean, U-turned her on
J.Lo reminisces about Penn's old smooch; nude Madonna painter prepares for knuckle sandwich; Elton takes pity on poor mama Hurley. Plus: Lance Bass says Britney and Justin aren't through!
Sam he ain't
Forget his embarrassing, scenery-chewing performance in "I am Sam" -- Sean Penn is one of the two greatest actors of his generation.
"I Am Sam"
Sean Penn disgraces himself in this hideously manipulative melodrama about a retarded man's battle to keep his daughter.
Every little thing he does is wacky
Sting shows son video of his own birth; O'Reilly fires back at Penn; Cruz opens the gush floodgates; grumbling in "Starsky and Hutch" land.
Marilyn Manson's fuzzy underbelly
His Gothness exposes his soft side. Plus: Aniston turns on the waterworks over "Friends" end.
Nice "Beaver"!
Sean Penn! Crispin Glover! A drag Olivia Newton-John! The strange saga of how "The Beaver Trilogy" was made is even weirder than the film itself.
"The Pledge"
Jack Nicholson as a hallucinating ex-cop is almost as good as he's ever been, but he can't save Sean Penn's pretentious thriller.
"Up at the Villa"
The new film from the folks who gave us "Angels and Insects" is strictly "Minor Piece Theatre."
Winners and losers
Why have so many actors who've won Oscars seen their careers tank?
