“Part of the advantage, and part of the result of trying to be a producer and director, are the practical things, you find.

“At the moment, it actually says nothing about a possible cosmic-ray effect on clouds and climate, but it's a very important first step.” This may be because he was ordered to speak circumspectly. According to science writer Nigel Calder, Rolf-Dieter Heuer, the director of the CERN lab, told a German newspaper that “I have asked the colleagues to present the results clearly, but not to interpret them. That would go immediately into the highly political arena of the climate change debate. One has to make clear that cosmic radiation is only one of many parameters.” FirstsMayImportantMomentsPoliticalSpeakResultsStepsClearEffectsDirectorsClimateClimate ChangeCloudsDebateNewspapersRaysCosmicRadiationFirst StepsColleaguesArenaLabsParametersCosmic RaysCern Author:Rolf-Dieter Heuer
“It's not hard to understand why an accomplished director like Gus Van Sant (whose most recent success, Good Will Hunting, gave him mainstream clout) would be interested in making this film. The lure of an exact remake presents a tremendous challenge. Unfortunately, it was undoubtedly a lot more stimulating for Van Sant and his crew to make Psycho than it is for an audience to watch it. Curiosity is going to be one of the primary reasons why people pay money to see this movie; boredom will be the predominant result.” PeopleHardReasonWould BeFilmChallengesResultsPayWatchesAudienceDirectorsPrimariesReason WhyBoredomAccomplishedHuntingMainstreamCrewVansGood WillLureRemakesPsychoCloutGusWill Hunting Author:James Berardinelli
