Filed under: Law and Order , Casting , Reality-Free Of all the Law & Orders -- and I watch all three -- Special Victims Unit is the one that indulges in more character-oriented storytelling. That's all for the better, as far as I'm concern, whether that means going inside Olivia's mind as she's struggled with knowing she was a child of rape, or suffering when Elliot's marriage was on the rocks.

At the risk of getting cheesy with a Before They Were Stars moment, let's go back to the time when Josh Brolin was only James Brolin's son. It wasn't until his very recent amazing triple play ( No Country For Old Men, American Gangster, Grindhouse ) that he became a true star just as he was turning 40. Now he's in demand.

While rewatching the 70s thriller CAPRICORN ONE a while back, I marveled that it hadn't been turned into a remake yet. I guess it just required a bit of real-world relevance. Thanks, NASA's Phoenix mission! The 1978 conspiracy flick involved a team of astronauts complicit in a fake Mars landing, and their subsequent attempts to evade government forces before the truth can be exposed. The movie, directed...
