EDITOR MARNI WEISZ Seriously. INGRID RANDOJA I know for many of you the idea seems DEPUTY EDITOR CREATIVE DIRECTOR DANIEL CULLEN ludicrous, especially since the star of the new PRODUCTION MANAGER SHEILA GREGORY sequel, The Legend of Zorro, has developed PRODUCTION ASSISTANT ZAC VEGA a reputation as a bit of a one-note, lusty, romantic Spanish caricature. Perhaps you’re CONTRIBUTORS EARL DITTMAN even thinking of the caricature Chris Kattan SCOTT GARDNER SUSAN GRANGER used to do of him on Saturday Night Live, LIZA HERZ squeezed into tight leather pants, spouting DAN LIEBMAN breathy lines like, “I am, how you say, a-sexy.” BOB THOMPSON But think about. There are very few actors who can jump from genre to genre like Antonio. In fact, my favourite Banderas ADVERTISING SALES FOR FAMOUS, FAMOUS QUEBEC AND FAMOUS KIDS IS HANDLED BY FAMOUS PLAYERS MEDIA INC. performances create almost a cross-section of genres. He played one of the most heartbreaking romantic leads I’ve ever seen in his very HEAD OFFICE 416.539.8800 first English-language movie, Mambo Kings; was touching, strong and GENERAL MANAGER ROBERT BROWN (ext. 232) sensitive as Tom Hanks’ loyal boyfriend in Philadelphia; exuded NATIONAL SALES MANAGER JOHN TSIRLIS (ext. 237) power and machismo as the gun-toting mariachi of the Mexican DIRECTOR OF SALES ANTON KIM (ext. 238) western Desperado; sang his lungs out in the musical Evita; revealed DIR. OF MARKETING & SALES, BETH SCOTT (ext. 249) MAGAZINE DIVISION his comic edge in the Spy Kids movies; had the sense of humour to ACCOUNT MANAGERS ZOLTAN TOTH (ext. 233) parody his own commanding Mask of Zorro performance as Shrek 2’s JENNA PATERSON (ext. 243) adorable Puss-in-Boots; and he’s currently preparing for one of the BEN MUNGER (ext. 235) most epic performances of his career, as Roman emperor Hadrian SALES & MARKETING CAROL BRATHWAITE (ext. 256) in a historical drama from Deliverance director John Boorman. CO-ORDINATOR The fact that he can never really lose himself in a role — in “Zorro BRITISH COLUMBIA 604.904.8622 Rides Again,” page 32, Banderas admits “every American recognizes WESTERN SALES MANAGER DIANE RAJH my voice. I can disguise it any way I want, and they still go, ‘Oh, that’s Antonio,’” — somehow makes his versatility even more impressive. ALBERTA 403.266.4412 Another thing about Banderas…he’s a workhorse, appearing in WESTERN SALES MANAGER ELIZABETH D’ARTOIS 26 movies in his native Spain before most of us had ever heard of QUEBEC 514.868.0005 him, and another 26 since that 1992 English debut in Mambo Kings. DIRECTOR OF SALES SOPHIE JODOIN (ext. 222) The same can’t be said of all actors. In Her Shoes, for instance, is ACCOUNT MANAGER ZOÉ LAFOND (ext. 224) Cameron Diaz’s first movie since her voice role opposite Banderas in SALES CO-ORDINATOR PATRICIA CARPENTIER (ext. 223) last year’s Shrek 2, and marks the first time she’s actually appeared on screen since 1993’s Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle. In “Diaz Finds SPECIAL THANKS MATHIEU CHANTELOIS JOAN GRANT the Right Fit,” page 24, the actor explains why she needed a break, JEAN-FRANÇOIS LÉGARÉ and why the Curtis Hanson-directed dramedy was enough, not only CATHY PROWSE to pull her back, but for relatively little money. SUSAN REGINELLI Orlando Bloom also alludes to needing some time off in our JEFF RUSH interview for his first big departure from swords and sandals epics, Elizabethtown.

  • Ask the Expert: Bush's 'Seinfeld' Strategy Michael
    Ask the expert: Bush’s ‘Seinfeld’ strategy Michael Fullilove Financial Times www.ft.com 5 April 2007 “In recent times US grand strategy has been guided by a new kind of doctrine, named after not its author but its exemplar: the Costanza doctrine”, writes Michael Fullilove, director of the global issues programme at the Lowy Institute for International Policy in Sydney. “This doctrine”, argues Mr Fullilove, “recalls the classic episode of the TV comedy Seinfeld, “The Opposite”, in which George Costanza temporarily improves his fortunes by rejecting all the principles according to which he has lived his life and doing the opposite of what his training indicates he should do.” Mr Fullilove believes that the Iraq policy pursued by the Bush administration satisfies the Costanza criterion because it is the opposite of every foreign policy the world has ever met. “The Costanza doctrine is all about hope“, he writes, “but when it comes to making your way, in New York or the world, experience is the better guide.” FT.com readers were invited to post their questions on Bush the Costanza doctrine to Mr Fullilove. He answers appear below. ............................................................................................................................................ Q: Isn’t it more accurate to equate the Bush Administration’s Iraq policy to the Seinfeld episode (The Pez Dispenser) where George Costanza needed a hand in his relationship with women? George Bush thought an easy win in Iraq would give the US the upper hand with North Korea and Iran. Instead, the failures in Iraq have left the US, like George Costanza, with no hand at all. Ray Betzner, Philadelphia, US Michael Fullilove: There’s no question that for the ultra-conservatives even more than the neo- conservatives, one of the attractions of the Iraq war was the demonstration effect it would supposedly have.
