Natural History: For richer or poorer   (Site not responding. Last check: ) But when you look at the big tax cuts for the rich, and the imposition of "structural adjustment programs" on the poorer countries, you see how silly that idea is. Capitalists will never contribute the necessary means to really fight poverty and disease in the world. According to Jeffrey Sachs, one of the main themes persuasively argued in Paul Farmer's book is that "the poor are not the victims of their sins, but of their circumstances." Better to say they are victims of ignorance. Nor is it true as a general principle that the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer, either relatively or absolutely. www.findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_m1134/is_3_113/ai_n5990754   (676 words)

CNN - Review: 'For Richer or Poorer' is painfully poor - December 19, 1997 I didn't faint while watching "For Richer or Poorer," but I sure would have welcomed a sudden flout. His performance in "For Richer or Poorer" consists almost entirely of him wildly gritting his teeth and looking askance at Alley whenever she says something idiotic. When all is said and done, the most Amish thing about "For Richer or Poorer" is that it eventually drove me buggy. www.cnn.com /SHOWBIZ/9712/19/rich.or.poor   (907 words)

'For Richer or Poorer': They're Still Waiting for the Death Part While the overarching concept is time-tested in romantic drama (see "Witness" from 1985 or the half-century-old "Angel and the Badman"), "For Richer or Poorer" founders in its efforts to fill in the comic details. But "For Richer or Poorer," promising laughs, never serves up its main course. Rating: "For Richer or Poorer" is rated PG-13 (Parents strongly cautioned). partners.nytimes.com /library/film/121297rich-film-review.html   (455 words)

DVD : For Richer or Poorer   (Site not responding. Last check: ) Tim Allen and Kirstie Alley are New York scammers on the lam from the IRS--they got framed by their slimy accountant, Wayne Knight of Seinfeld--so they hide out as fake Amish farmers in Intercourse, Pennsylvania. As parodies of Witness go, For Richer or Poorer can't compete with the Woody Harrelson-Bill Murray flick Kingpin, by the creators of Dumb and Dumber. For Richer Or Poorer is a great film for the entire family. www.ajeno.com /0783226896/For_Richer_or_Poorer.shtml   (362 words)

Forget the richer; this flick is definitely poorer The premise of "For Richer or Poorer" - cue the laugh track - is that Allen is an obnoxious entrepreneur from New York, married to an obnoxious wife (that'd be Alley). There is zero chemistry between the two, even though "For Richer or Poorer" is an alleged romantic comedy. People who see "For Richer or Poorer" are the same people who watch all the other shockingly bad movies that get made year after year. www.sfgate.com /cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/examiner/archive/1997/12/12/WEEKEND9898.dtl&type=printable   (685 words)

Guardian Unlimited | Special reports | For richer, for poorer The average Chinese person is over six times richer than 20 years ago - the number living on less than a dollar a day fell by 150 million between 1990 and 1998, the fastest fall in poverty ever recorded. While some countries have become richer by designing, manufacturing and trading (and I am all in favour of that), it is countries (like the UK) that make money from money that have really thrived under globalisation. I shall be much briefer: if the world followed your prescriptions, we would all be much poorer. www.guardian.co.uk /globalisation/story/0,7369,1041084,00.html   (1383 words)

Article: Myths for Richer and Poorer If you thought the rich were getting richer and the poor poorer, the authors state, here's why: The gap between the richest fifth of Americans and the poorest fifth has widened in 20 years. Nor did progress take 16 years: Nearly a quarter of the people in the poorest fifth in 1975 moved to a higher income bracket in just a single year. In other words, the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer only if they stay poor. faculty.valencia.cc.fl.us /redwards/richvspoor.htm   (640 words)

FOR RICHER OR POORER movie review with photos, video About a half hour into the movie, though, when those two find that their accountant has cheated them into a multimillion-dollar IRS debt and they go on the lam to Pennsylvania Amish country, the entire movie takes a sharp turn for the better. The film's comic highlight, hands down, has her finally finding her place among the Amish by convincing the elders that adding a little color to the women's clothing would in no way compromise their commitment to the simple life. In a season crammed with enormously ambitious movies, For Richer or Poorer is certainly not going to be anyone's first or even second choice. www.rochestergoesout.com /mov/f/forric.html   (479 words)

BMN Review: For Richer or Poorer (1997)   (Site not responding. Last check: ) "For Richer or Poorer" was intended to be a comedy but failed almost as miserably as "Bean." The jokes were either mediocre or completely missed -- the "Minute Lice" joke (which is older than googleplex-generian Betty White) actually managed to get a few chuckles from Scoot and Bjula. I, however, sat in utter discomfort as the age-old format of wrong-doers look inside their hearts to heal themselves with the help of the axe-weilding Amish. While not as perfect a "Bad Movie Night" as other films, "For Richer or Poorer" ranks almost as highly as all possible... www.hit-n-run.com /cgi/read_review.cgi?review=16236_ken   (425 words)

The Unofficial Paul Krugman Web Page The median Swedish family has a standard of living roughly comparable with that of the median U.S. family: wages are if anything higher in Sweden, and a higher tax burden is offset by public provision of health care and generally better public services. And as you move further down the income distribution, Swedish living standards are way ahead of those in the U.S. Swedish families with children that are at the 10th percentile -- poorer than 90 percent of the population -- have incomes 60 percent higher than their U.S. counterparts. The point is that it is no accident that strongly conservative views, views that militate against taxes on the rich, have spread even as the rich get richer compared with the rest of us: in addition to directly buying influence, money can be used to shape public perceptions. www.pkarchive.org /economy/ForRicher.html   (7371 words)

For Richer or Poorer   (Site not responding. Last check: ) The new comedy, For Richer or Poorer, treats them a bit more reverently, but you can't help to think that they wouldn't take too kindly to their portrayal...if they saw movies, that is... For Richer or Poorer takes another tack...although there's one or two bloopers, it mostly shows scenes cut from the final release.

USCCB Reviews - For Richer or Poorer   (Site not responding. Last check: ) For Richer or Poorer -- Because of mild sexual innuendo, recurring coarse expressions and an instance of rough language, (A-III) -- adults. For Richer or Poorer is a thin comedy about wealthy yuppies Tim Allen and Kirstie Alley hiding from the IRS by posing as newcomers in an Amish community whose simple, hardworking lifestyle inspires them to change their ways. While the script is wholly predictable, the actors manage to wring some humor from the fish-out-of-water premise. www.nccbuscc.org /movies/f/for_richer_or_poorer.htm   (247 words)

FOR RICHER OR POORER Granted, it's doubtful "For Richer or Poorer" was ever intended to be Oscar worthy, but at least those responsible could have made a better movie. This is essentially a run- of-the-mill "fish out of water" story, where the characters find themselves in a land that's pretty much foreign to them and they must adapt to its ways. On the other hand, if you're looking for something different, or at least intelligently done, chose to be the first part of the title and don't buy the tickets. www.screenit.com /movies/1997/for_richer_or_poorer.html   (1923 words)

Guardian Unlimited | Guardian daily comment | For richer, for poorer We can no longer enjoy the benefits of living in a globalised world and ignore the lives of those by whose labour we benefit. The international community begins 2005 facing two immediate challenges: ensuring prompt delivery of aid for those affected by the tsunami; and tackling the underlying poverty that makes it so difficult for poorer countries to respond to such disasters. The recently launched Make Poverty History campaign is a coalition of aid agencies and celebrity activists set on mobilising awareness about global poverty. www.guardian.co.uk /comment/story/0,,1389197,00.html   (579 words)

For Richer or Poorer - About The Production   (Site not responding. Last check: ) "For Richer or Poorer is a romantic comedy about a couple who have lost their way and drifted apart when their lofty financial goals cause them to lose sight of each other," observes Tim Allen, who plays the upwardly mobile real estate magnate in search of the next big scheme that will make his fortune. For Richer or Poorer is a study in contrasts, with the Sexton's glamorous lifestyle in New York and their humble surroundings in the rural Pennsylvania Amish country reflecting the two diametrically opposed ends of the spectrum. Director Bryan Spicer and his creative team set out to underscore the story's central conflict in distinctly visual and cinematic terms. www.filmscouts.com /scripts/matinee.cfm?Film=ric-poo&File=productn   (1398 words)
