One of our favorite new film reviewers is John Anderson, who has already appeared several times in our Culture section (online and in print) and reviews regularly for the New York Times Arts & Leisure Section and Variety. His review of Ridley Scott's new film "Robin Hood," starring Russell Crowe, will appear in our next issue, and online in a few days. Here Tim Reidy, our online editor, interviews him about that movie, "Iron Man 2," as well as some other summer offerings of note: "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," the latest installment in the "Twilight" series, as well as some lesser-known indie films like "Restrepo" and, yes, "Coco Chanel and Igor Stravinsky." Check it out on our podcast and find out what's a must-see and a must-avoid.

If you think our enthusiasm for our basketball team was intense, just wait until you see our support for Pope Leo XIV.
