The Other Boleyn Girl, bodice-ripping yarn, PG-13, Regal Stadium 14, 424-6296, 2 chiles
If you're going to start ripping bodices, you couldn't rip them off two more lovely ladies than Scarlett Johansson and Natalie Portman.

The other Boleyn girl is Mary (Johansson), fair of face and limb, gentle of disposition, and kind of heart. However, according to Sir Thomas Boleyn (Mark Rylance), the girls' father, "to get a...

Naomie Harris has rubbed shoulders with the biggest of stars and relaxed in the comfort of the best star trailers that Hollywood has to offer. But for her latest film, "The First Grader," which opened Friday at the Broadway, the working conditions couldn't have been any different.
Going from movie star luxury on the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies to a hole-in-the-ground toilet surrounded by corrugated iron for privacy is a big adjustment. Not that Harris would have had it any other way.

The best part of "The First Grader" are these five words, placed under the title: "Based on a true story.
If this were not the factual tale of a man named Kimani Ng'ang'a Marunge, who fought against the British colonial powers to free Kenya and then returned to school to learn to read at age 84, this film could be dismissed as just another emotionally manipulative drama. It follows such a simple and predictable narrative arc that the viewer not only sees what's coming next but can predict events right down the line.

The story takes place in Tokyo, where he's been sent on a big fashion shoot. That explains Japanese director Masayuki Ochiai, whose credits include such J-horror fare as "Infection," "Tales of the Unusual," and "Hypnosis.
Not surprisingly, this type of photography has been the subject of much debate ever since," observes Troy Taylor, author of "Spirit Photography - It's Strange & Controversial History." A true believer, Taylor adds: "Strangely though, it is spirit photography that seems to provide the most scientific evidence of ghosts. It is one of the only methods of capturing ghostly phenomena that approaches the standards of science."
