Based on the best-selling John le Carré novel and from the Academy Award-nominated director of "City of God." In a remote area of Northern Kenya, activist Tessa Quayle (Rachel Weisz) is found brutally murdered. Tessa's companion, a doctor, appears to have fled the scene, and the evidence points to a crime of passion. Members of the British High Commission in Nairobi assume that Tessa's widower, their mild-mannered and unambitious colleague Justin Quayle (Ralph Fiennes), will leave the matter to them. They could not be more wrong. Haunted by remorse and jarred by rumors of his late wife's infidelities, Quayle surprises everyone by embarking on a personal odyssey that will take him across three continents. Using his privileged access to diplomatic secrets, he will risk his own life, stopping at nothing to uncover and expose the truth - a conspiracy more far-reaching and deadly than Quayle could ever have imagined.

August 1, 2005: Gardener trailer:
I wasn't entirely prepared for CITY OF GOD. I was expecting a good movie but I wasn't expecting to be bitch-slapped with goodness. I've had ridiculous drinking outings that
didn't hit me as hard as this movie did. It is a staggeringly good movie and so...
July 15, 2005: Sarandon likes Doris:
I keep seeing those Revlon commercials with Susan Sarandon and they kinda freak me out. Not because she doesn't look great (because she does) but because it's Susan Sarandon looking all sexy and stuff. I think it's the same "mom" effect that I have with Helen...
