  2. Jamie Foxx's skid role

    In nightclubs and strip joints across the country, the song of the moment is Jamie Foxx's "Blame It (On the Alcohol)," a leering tale of bad boys, well, behaving badly. The hit certainly inspired a few smirks in Hollywood, where Foxx has become a...

    Movies about terrorism and the war on terror have been no-shows at the box-office. But "The Kingdom" could change that. This is loose history but gripping drama, an action thrill ride ready-made for "CSI" Nation, a crime scene investigation in Saudi...

  6. As filming leaves, so do benefits for taxpayers

    Times Staff Writer
    California loses more than $10 million in tax revenue when a larger-budget movie costing about $70 million is made elsewhere. A mid-size film, costing about $32 million, shot out of state means about $4 million in lost taxes. For a 12-episode drama,...

  9. Capote

    Chicago Tribune
    Too many film biographies rely on the mimetic skill and charisma of the actor in charge, as did "Ray" last year, thanks to Jamie Foxx. The Ray Charles biopic was a limited sort of achievement, a case of a fine performer competing against the old A-to-Z,...

  11. Double duty

    Stars and filmmakers could be competing against themselves this year. Who's grittier, Leonardo DiCaprio as a rugged mercenary chasing the "Blood Diamond" or DiCaprio as a gangland infiltrator stalking Jack Nicholson in "The Departed"? Which director gave the most compelling history lesson, the Clint Eastwood who directed "Flags of Our Fathers" or the one who unsealed "Letters From Iwo Jima"?
