 'Quiet American' makes a big impression   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Noyce (who also directed the current "Rabbit-Proof Fence," and is having a big year) has never seemed more in control of his elements or in tune with his milieu and characters.
His big set piece -- the car bombing of Saigon's Place Garnier (now Lam Son Square) -- is as horrifyingly believable a terrorist attack as I've seen staged for a film, and his intimate moments between Fowler and Phuong are just as detailed and credible.
His big, sad, watery eyes carry enormous dignity, effortlessly convey the character's every emotion and speak whole volumes about the bittersweet legacy of colonialism and the end of the white man's day in Asia.

 Real Estate Weekly: 'Little guys' making a big impression
While big real estate firms like Cushman and Wakefield, Newmark, Eastdil, Studley, and CB Richard Ellis grab headlines with huge building sales and lease transactions, small to midsize real estate firms have quietly begun posting impressive numbers of their own.
Although the two firms operate in different areas of the business, both adhere to a similar philosophy for success: they strive to execute a high frequency of smaller deals therefore avoiding direct competition with the bigger firms but still challenging their numbers.
Big firms typically execute the institutional leasing deals, the kinds that measure in the hundreds of thousands of square feet.

 BBC - Comedy Guide - Alistair McGowan's Big Impression
With Rory Bremner utilising his prodigious talent almost exclusively for political satire, straightforward comedy impressionism had all but vanished from TV in the 1990s before enjoying a glorious resurrection in the hands of Alistair McGowan and his equally talented female partner Ronni Ancona.
McGowan had already impressed in a great many comedies on BBC Radio 4 (Dead Ringers is just one of them) and in several on TV (see index) but it was this show that brought him fame, the make-up and costume departments adding a dazzling visual accompaniment to his considerable vocal prowess.
The art of TV impressionism (including the work of McGowan) was celebrated in Night Of A Thousand Faces (BBC1, 22 December 2001).
