A widower (Steve Carrell) discovers the woman (Juliette Binoche) he's falling in love with is dating his brother. Collierville Towne 16. Enchanted (PG, 107 min.) Amy Adams ("Junebug") is Giselle, a naive Disney princess ejected from her fairy-tale cartoon world into the flesh-and-blood chaos of Manhattan in this charming, clever and upbeat family film, directed by Kevin Lima and scripted by Bill Kelly. Never insulting as it moves toward its inevitable happily-ever-after ending, the movie maintains a delicate balance between wish-fulfillment fantasy and a recognition that the real world inhabited by its audience is filled with disappointment as well as with joy. With Patrick Dempsey as the divorce lawyer who becomes Giselle's New York Prince Charming; Susan Sarandon as a wicked witch; and Rachel Covey as a 6-year-old stand-in for the young girls in the audience: She sees Giselle as a dream big sister come to life.
Not Worth The Shot?
HAMDI ALI IS three years old, and his PCR tests have shown high levels of active hepatitis C virus (HCV). His mother, a young veiled woman with Hamdis green eyes, finds it difficult to hold back the tears as she hugs her baby tightly. She has come all the way from Alexandria to the National Liver Center in Monoufia, one of the most reputable in the Middle East, to make sure the boy gets his interferon injections. The doctor from the health insurance program in Alexandria refused to allow him the interferon injections, she tells us. He says he doesnt need it. But he does. The doctors here have been wonderful. They help us out of their own pockets. A zakat [charity] committee takes care of the bills, but the treatment is too costly. .
