  • President Bush is expected to make big promises Tuesday in his State of the Union address about conserving energy and breaking America's oil addiction. But business leaders and environmental groups say the Bush approach isn't likely to be tough enough.
  • Just to clear up any confusion, although much of the story is set in Iran, the film was made in France and in the French language.
