Two quite controversial and buzzed about movies hit New York theaters this weekend. So far the critical opinion of raving lunatic Mel Gibson's new foreign language feature, . Now we finally get to see the film they thought was going to be such a public relations nightmare. Leo plays a South African diamond smuggler who teams up with a Sierra Leone farmer (the always excellent Djimon Hounsou) to outwit a syndicate of businessmen. From the trailers it looks pretty heartpounding, and not just because the lovely Jennifer Connelly is also in it.

What is it about traffic stops lately? Yesterday, when the police stopped a car in a Brooklyn, the driver bit off one officer's finger while trying to run away. Bit the tip of the officer's left ring finger clear off! The injured cop still held onto David O'Brien as his partner arrested O'Brien; the partner also picked up the finger tip, which is heartwarming to think about what partners do for each other. Doctors at Bellevue were working to reattach the finger, and charges including assault were brought against O'Brien.
