Actor Chris Klein made his professional debut in the satirical high school-set comedy "Election" (1999). Filmed in director Alexander Payne's hometown of Omaha, Nebraska, Klein was discovered when Payne visited his high school on a locations scout. After an audition, the young actor was cast as Paul Metzler, a sweet, naïve and popular sidelined athlete who is persuaded by his teacher (Matthew Broderick) to run against the overachieving Tracy Flick (Reese Witherspoon) for class president. Playing the least malevolent character in the film, Klein offered a portrayal that was likened by many critics to Keanu Reeves' charming early performances. Brown-haired, tall, and athletic in build, the actor again played a likable jock in that summer's surprisingly sensitive teen sex comedy "American Pie". This time he portrayed Oz, a lacrosse player who, in an attempt to impress girls, seeks to prove he is more than a mindless sports hero by joining a choir.

 A gifted performer who developed her talent at a young age, Cate Blanchett grew into exceptional actress who achieved international acclaim with her stunning Oscar-nominated turn as a young Elizabeth I in Shekhar Kapur’s “Elizabeth” (1998). Prior to that role, the engaging Australian found herself thrust in the spotlight with just her third feature, "Oscar and Lucinda" (1997), starring opposite Ralph Fiennes. As the headstrong proto-feminist heiress whose penchant for gambling draws her to a clergyman with the same predilections, Cate Blanchett delivered a star-making performance that garnered the attention of filmdom’s most esteemed directors. Alluring, yet elusive and possessing an innate intelligence coupled with malleable features – she sometimes seemed plain, but beautiful, often in the same shot – the actress quickly rose to international fame to become one of Hollywood’s most respected and revered talents.

This 16th "James Bond girl" followed in the spike-heeled footsteps of female actors as diverse as Ursula Andress, Jill St John, Jane Seymour and Joanna Lumley (as well as more than a few whose names are long-forgotten). A geologist's daughter, the New York-born Lowell grew up in Libya, Holland, Virginia and Texas. By the time she was a fine-featured high school graduate, she had been signed by the Ford modeling agency and was posing for Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein while attending college.

With a scorching $27,204 per-theatre-average, Saul Dibb's "The Duchess" found 2008's second highest specialty average (behind arguable inclusion "Kit Kittredge: An American Girl") and gave the competitive fall season a royal beginning. In 7 locations, the Paramount Vantage release grossed $190,426. A slew of other, lower-profile films also found decent numbers, including a Texas screening of Chris Eska's "August Evening," the debut of Stuart Townsend's "Battle in Seattle" and the second weekend...

 A handsome, muscular leading man, Burt Reynolds first achieved prominence on TV's "Riverboat" (NBC, 1959-61). Although he made his film debut in 1961, he remained best known for his small-screen work, notably as partly Native American characters on "Gunsmoke" (CBS, 1962-65; a blacksmith), and "Hawk" (ABC, 1966; a detective).
