Sprawling and ambitious, it reaches back to the early roots of the Civil Rights struggle and zooms in on schoolrooms in 2002 to divine what the decision did and didn't change.
The film is at its most quietly powerful, though, when telling the story of a group of African-American high school kids who took their discontent to the highest court in the land.

 USATODAY.com - 'Ambitious goal' set on reducing road deaths   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta is pushing an ambitious plan to cut the rate of traffic deaths by a third over the next four years.
Achieving that fatality rate, even as the number of miles driven continues to climb, would mean 30,000 deaths in 2008 — nearly 13,000 fewer than in 2002 and the lowest number of annual deaths since records have been kept.
To reduce the death toll, he is looking at education, technology, child seats, even stoplights on freeway entrance ramps.

 Gravity's Rainbow - Thomas Pynchon   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
In America in the late 1950's and early 1960's there appeared a series of comic apocalyptic novels organized around picaresque anti-heroes or schlemiels and filled with what came to be called fl humor.
Pynchon's new book is thus an event--it breaks seven years of silence and allays the fear that he might never go beyond his early success.
Immersing himself in "the destructive element" and exploring paranoia, entropy and the love of death as primary forces in the history of our time, Pynchon establishes his imaginative continuity with the great modernist writers of the early years of this century.
