STEPHEN HOLDEN NYT SYNDICATE N the lineage of real-life Davidand-Goliath movies in which intrepid seekers of the truth investigate malfeasance in high places, The Whistleblower deserves an honourable mention. This earnest film may not be as dramatically coherent or as gripping as Serpico, All the President’s Men, Erin Brockovich and Silkwood, to name four much-decorated Hollywood prototypes. But its revelations are, if anything, more devastating and far more immediate than the dirty deeds uncovered in those predecessors. The directorial debut of the Canadian filmmaker Larysa Kondracki, this gruelling exposé of human trafficking in postwar Bosnia teeters in an uneasy balance between quasi-documentary and fiction. Its most sickening moment shows the rape and torture of a rebellious young prostitute smuggled from Ukraine into a Bosnian backwoods brothel while other young “whores of war,” as one character dismisses human trafficking victims, are forced to watch. But for all its high-mindedness, The Whistleblower, filmed largely in Romania, has a choppy, fumbling screenplay (by Kondracki and Eilis Kirwan) that lurches between shrill editorialising and vagueness while sorting through more characters than it can comfortably handle or even readily identify. As Kathryn Bolkovac (Rachel Weisz), the movie’s slingshot-toting American heroine, marches into a political minefield, she seems strangely immune to danger until near the end of the film. The Whistleblower ultimately fizzles by withholding any cathartic sense that justice was done, or ever will be done, once Kathryn spills the beans to the British news media. When the story begins, she is a police officer and a divorced mother living in Lincoln, Nebraska. Prevented from transferring to Atlanta to be nearer to her daughter, she impulsively accepts a lucrative job as a United I Actress Jessica Chastain arrives at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association annual luncheon in Beverly Hills, California. (AP) Nations peacekeeping officer in Bosnia in 1999. The blunt, fearless Kathryn embraces her new job with a gusto that immediately raises eyebrows among her cynical co-workers, who look down at the Eastern Europeans they have been charged to help. Weisz’s feisty performance is the strongest element of The Whistleblower. She imbues Kathryn with the same stubborn-verging-onfanatical zeal that Rose Byrne (whom Weisz physically resembles) brings to her character, Ellen Parsons, in the television series Damages, with which The Whistleblower shares a strain of paranoia. After demonstrating her mettle in prosecuting a case of domestic violence, Kathryn is offered a job in the United Nations Gender Affairs Office, working with the police to investigate rape, domestic abuse and sex trafficking. Her gumption earns her the admiration of Madeleine Rees (Vanessa Redgrave), the head of the United Nations Human Rights Commission, who remains an enigmatic, undeveloped character. The party-loving Kathryn also begins a casual affair with Jan (Nikolaj Lie Kaas), a fellow peacekeeping officer. Kathryn comes face to face with the truth when she journeys to a bar in the countryside, where she discovers a nest of imprisoned young prostitutes who are so frightened that they refuse to talk to her. When she reports back to her smirking boss, Fred Murray (David Hewlett), and he mockingly asks her if she’s “going Columbo,” she realises that he is part of a conspiracy of silence among her male co-workers. Even Laura Leviani (Monica Bellucci), the chilly head of the repatriation program, is of no help: she insists that bureaucratic rules leave her unable to rescue prostitutes whose passports have been confiscated by their kidnappers. As Kathryn gathers evidence, including Abu Ghraib-like snapshots of the girls and their johns, a fuller picture begins to emerge of a lucrative, farreaching operation involving the police and United Nations peacekeepers, many of them protected by diplomatic immunity. The more noise she makes to United Nations higherups, the more apparent it becomes that she is viewed as a troublemaking nuisance, and her job is terminated. The movie concentrates on Kathryn’s efforts to coax two terrified Ukrainian girls, (Roxana Raya Condurache) and her best friend, Irka (Rayisa Kondracki, the director’s sister), to identify their kidnappers. Kathryn recklessly promises Raya protection if she agrees to talk, with dire consequences. Near the end of The Whistleblower, a scene is awkwardly inserted in which Raya’s mother discovers that immediate family members sold her daughter into slavery. Kathryn is so outraged by her discoveries that she has no room for panic. Her lack of caution suggests that only someone blindly immune to intimidation would rattle so many cages without fearing for her life. Some of the horrors in the book Bolkovac wrote about her experiences, including the fact that many of the trafficked girls were much younger than those shown in the movie, are softened. Kathryn’s only ally is Peter Ward (David Strathairn, in ominously brooding, conspiratorial mode), an internal affairs specialist who, in the film’s most suspenseful scene, helps her smuggle evidence out of her office. The Whistleblower tells a story so repellent that it is almost beyond belief. Its conclusion — that in the moral quagmire of war and its aftermath, human trafficking and corruption are collateral damage — is unutterably depressing. Rachel Weisz Startalk Lifeline Shakira is seventh most popular person on Twitter Brad Pitt felt no sparks with Nicole Kidman COLOMBIAN songstress Shakira has become the seventh most-popular person on the Twitter social network, with nearly 7.42 million followers, her publicist announced on Monday.

The film’s producer Arnon Milchan says Pitt, 47, was unhappy as there were no sparks with Kidman. But when he cast Angelina Jolie, Pitt called back to say he was happy to play the role, reports thesun.co.uk.

The Management Tip of the Day offers quick, practical management tips and ideas from Harvard Business Review and HBR.org (www.hbr.org). Today’s management tip was adapted from Guide to Managing Stress. “We all have them: those days when nothing goes right. To avoid taking the stress home, try doing three things at the end of a bad day: 1. Clear your mind. Take a few deep breaths. Think about the things that matter to you outside of work. Prepare yourself mentally to walk out the door and leave the day behind. 2. Do something easy. Send off a report, reconcile a balance sheet, or reply to a few straightforward e-mails. Get some things off your to-do list to restore a sense of control. 3. Get up and leave. Once you’ve completed the task, don’t check your email once more or stop by someone’s desk. Just leave.” Caring for stroke victims HUMA QURESHI GUARDIAN NEWS SERVICE T ONY Nicklinson is listening to the radio when I arrive. He’s been hoisted into his wheelchair, and sits alone in a room overlooking his garden. Seeing me, he raises his eyebrows by way of hello. I introduce myself, ask how he is and tell him I’ve spent the afternoon with his lovely daughters. He nods stiffly. Then his eyes well up. Tony had a stroke in 2005 and now suffers from locked-in syndrome: he’s trapped inside his body, aware of everything going on but unable to engage with it. Paralysed from the neck down, Tony can’t speak but he can think, hear and feel. He communicates through blinking, twice for no, once for yes. There is no cure for locked-in syndrome, a condition most commonly caused by a stroke severing the connection between the brain and the body. The syndrome received widespread public attention in 2007, through the French film The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, based on a book of the same name by Jean-Dominique Bauby, who had been editor of French Elle magazine. Following a serious stroke of his own, Bauby was left paralysed save for his left eye, which he used to communicate by blinking at an alphabet board. Tony recently made the headlines because of his legal campaign for the right to die. He has said, through blinking at letters on an alphabet board as Bauby did, that he is “fed up” with life. It’s not easy to imagine the frustration or the sadness unless you meet somebody with the condition. But having seen my dad go through something similar, I feel able to understand what Tony and his family are going through. I had just turned 23 when my dad suffered the first of four consecutive strokes, each a destructive wave violently washing a part of him away. We had just celebrated my birthday together - my parents visiting me while I was studying in Paris, a fortnight before the strokes struck. It was to be the last time I saw my father well. It was the last time I took a photograph of my parents together, his arm thrown casually around her shoulder, surrounded by papery pale pink tulips. That picture, taken seven years ago and now on my bedroom windowsill, is my last memory of my dad as he was. One evening I was revising for my final exams when my mother phoned. She told me my dad was in hospital - he had a stroke. I didn’t really register what this meant. I didn’t know what a stroke was - I had assumed that they happened to old people, and my dad, in his early sixties, wasn’t old. I did know it must be bad for my mum to be telling me just days before my finals. She said he was OK and put him on the line; he even spoke to me and said he was fine - but his voice was thick, heavy, slurred. It didn’t sound like him. I put the phone down, puzzled and alone. My legs felt heavy. I knew things weren’t good. Uneasily, I packed a rucksack, throwing in revision notes and a change of clothes. I imagined I’d be back soon. I wasn’t. From being the happy, healthy man in the picture on my windowsill, my father was transformed: half-paralysed, confined to a wheelchair, fed by a tube. In hospital for just over 18 months, he wasn’t completely paralysed like Tony. But he gradually shut down and was still very much taken away from us, even while he was alive. At the beginning, he could still talk, but his whispered words eventually faded to silence and sadness. He could move his right hand, and by chance we discovered he could write precious, shaky scribbles. It was my mum who figured out, later, that he could say yes or no by blinking; she picked up on it by chance, asking him if he was OK and slowly realising there was a pattern. At first, we weren’t sure but the more we practiced with him, the more we realised it wasn’t just a haphazard movement, but a way to communicate. The hospital months were tough. They took a toll on us all, although what we went through was not as bad as what my dad endured. Physically, we were exhausted; emotionally, wiped out. My brothers, settled in London, travelled tirelessly home to the Midlands every weekend. My dad, the clever, funny, winsome doctor, had been my emergency call in times of panic or stupidity, my lawyer to fight my corner, my friend. At the worst of times, closer to his death, when his pain was unbearable and his body but a shell, I carried a mantra in my head - “That’s not my dad, that’s not my dad” - repeating it silently in my mind to remind myself of the person he was, really was, before the strokes. Huma Qureshi’s father was paralysed by a stroke, unable to talk. Family life was changed for ever. She meets other people who have experienced a similar loss My mum and I became each other’s company and best friends. We spent every day in the hospital, convincing nursing staff to let us in earlier and leave later than visiting hours. We learned how to wash his hair in bed, how to change his position, how to avoid bedsores. It was draining, but not as miserable as it sounds. A multitasker, my mum balanced work and caring; I studied for the exams I never took while helping her with his exercises, holding up flash cards to see if he could say them or blink recognition, reading the paper aloud and talking animatedly to keep his attention (“Never cry in front of him,” they said). Some days were good, happy; it was hard not hearing his voice, but we knew he was still there. Other days, when an infection took hold or a bad set of blood results came, not so good. My dad was 67 when he died. I made it to the hospital in time to say goodbye. I remember being startled by the strength in his hand as he squeezed with his last breaths. Locked-in syndrome isn’t classified as a disease, so there are no precise statistics on the number of people suffering from it. It’s also hard to identify, and to know the extent of it. All too often, locked-in syndrome remains undiagnosed, patients written off as lost causes when they are all the while aware of their condition, just unable to say so. There have been a few miraculous recoveries, the occasional story making the news because of someone who defied the odds and broke out from being locked in. One of the most recent is Graham Miles, 66, from Surrey, south-east England, who had a stroke and was paralysed, also able to communicate only by blinking. Miles can now walk, talk and has even taken up motor racing as a hobby. He puts his recovery down to willpower. Others are less fortunate. It was in February that I first saw Tony Nicklinson on television, promoting his legal campaign. Tony had been a strong rugby player who travelled the world as an engineer. When I saw him on television, something about the way he sat in his wheelchair reminded me of my dad. It wasn’t just Tony who caught my attention. His daughters, Lauren and Beth, were on screen too. Both in their early twenties, they talked about how the man they knew when they were growing up was no longer there, because the stroke had taken him away. Here were two young women with whom I had something in common: daughters who knew what it felt like to see your father like that. That connection, or the hope of one, compelled me to get in touch. Weeks later, I arrive at the Nicklinson’s family home in Wiltshire, south-west England, to spend the afternoon with Lauren, 23, and Beth, 22. I am painfully conscious that while the three of us have seen our dads suffer, my experience has gone further: my dad is no longer alive, as Tony is, just down the corridor. “Everything changed the day dad had his stroke,” says Lauren, who was 18 and doing her A-level exams when it happened (Beth, 16, was taking her GCSE exams). The Nicklinsons lived in the United Arab Emirates, at the time, and Tony had just left on a business trip to Athens when a colleague phoned to break the news. “I remember mum shut the door while she was on the phone, and she’d never do that unless there was something wrong. Then she told me that dad had a stroke. I remember feeling really scared. That night I slept with the door open.” I tell Lauren I know how she felt. I would sleep with the lights on. We are quietly surprised by small similarities: that we were all doing our exams when our dads got ill, that our dads had similar heart problems pre-stroke, that we discovered the blinks meant something by accident, that Lauren flew to Athens with just one change of clothes, just as I did when I flew back to Birmingham from Paris. For Lauren, Beth and me they are small things which we have never shared with anyone outside our families. There are emotional similarities too; the desperate desire to reach out and save our dads from the indignity stroke brings, the guilt of moving on with our lives, the constant worrying about our mothers. We talk calmly, without tears but sad recognition for what it is we have lost.

The 28-year-old, who has seven-month-old daughter Flynn with actor husband Orlando Bloom, thinks having respect for herself and caring for other people encourages her to look after herself and live a healthy lifestyle. “If you have love, first of all love and appreciation for yourself, then you are going to eat healthily and you are going to take care of yourself and exercise,” contactmusic.com quoted Kerr as saying.

On Sunday, ABC officially confirmed reports that the upcoming season of Desperate Housewives would be its last. But series star Felicity Huffman got the bad news on Friday — in an e-mail from her costar Marcia Cross. Only after that did she get the call from Housewives creator Marc Cherry.

She said she feels a sense of freedom about approaching 30. “For every generation where traditional rules don’t apply, you don’t have to have things figured out by 22 and have four kids by the time you’re 30,” said Hathaway, who’s single but dating and has no children. “We have a lot more time to figure out who we are.” Case in point, Hathaway says Meryl Streep, the 62-year-old Oscar winner. “We have pioneers that show us there’s no reason to be afraid, and I just think fear (of aging) is something that we perpetuate,” Hathaway said. “Who needs it?” One Day, based on the bestselling novel by David Nicholls, follows the romantic journey of two best friends over 20 years. The film, opening August 19, also stars British actor Jim Sturgess. Anne Hathaway Celebs to use Marley’s song in aid of African famine AP Bob Marley A BOB Marley song and the social media power of celebrities like Lady Gaga, Rihanna and Eminem may help the crisis in East Africa.

A short film about the crisis was set to the Marley & the Wailers song High Tide or Low Tide. Stars like Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Bieber and about 150 others have pledged to promote it and the cause on Facebook and Twitter. The video will be for sale on iTunes, through Bob Marley’s Facebook page and the website of the campaign. Funds raised will be donated to Save the Children. 36 Thursday, August 11, 2011 BOLLYWOOD www.qatar-tribune.com Lion King Part 2 roars at box office I would love to run around trees in chiffon saris: Mahie Gill Scene unscene MUMBAIKARS are pleasantly surprised to catch a glimpse of the huge ferocious lion in the city; but an animated one, on gigantic hoardings announcing the release of much-awaited The Lion King Part 2 in 3D. The film has collected above 11 crores in the first week, almost matching the collections of Singham and a shade less than Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. Prior to the release of the film, Global Advertisers were roped in for the publicity of the film in India. The Lion King Part 2, released on 29th July, is the first 3D release of a hand-drawn film from Disney, giving the classic kids’ movie a fresh look to a new generation of viewers. MAHIE Gill, since her foray into Bollywood, has been part of more realistic cinema like “Dev D”, “Gulaal” and now “Not A Love Story”. But the actress is itching to do full-on commercial films. “I would love to do typical candy floss commercial films. I love Sridevi and I love films where the heroine runs in chiffon saris. I would love to do all that but no director offers me those roles. I don’t know why,” said a disappointed Mahie. The actress featured in Punjabi films before entering Bollywood. MAHIE GILL Karisma Kapoor (left) and Kareena Kapoor. MOVIE POSTER OF THE LION KING. Sameera Reddy turns glamorous for Tezz dy in the movie Tezz. A still showing Sameera Red Kareena not getting married soon: Karisma IANS CTRESS Karisma Kapoor recently denied reports that her younger sister Kareena Kapoor is set to tie the knot with beau Saif Ali Khan towards the end of 2012. “Kareena is not getting married anytime soon,” Karisma said. Rumour mills have been abuzz with information that the couple - ‘Saifeena’ - is ready to settle down, and that their nuptials would happen at a palace in Bhopal in royal style. A report also said that Kareena’s wedding trousseau would be designed by Ritu Kumar. But Karisma’s denial proves otherwise. The charismatic 37-year-old was in New Delhi, to promote skincare product Olay Total A Effects, which she feels is the reason behind her “ageless beauty”. “When I started using this product in 2007, it was a lifechanging experience. I strongly believe that if you look good, you feel good, and that’s just what happened with me,” said Karisma, who will be seen on the big screen once again soon. The actress, who has done films like Dil To Pagal Hai, Biwi No.1 Raja Hindustani, and Zubeidaa, was last seen in Mere Jeevan Saathi which released in 2006. She has now teamed up with model-turned-actor Rajneesh Duggal for Vikram Bhatt’s film titled Dangerous Ishq. “I can’t speak much about the film but yes, I am doing it because I think the time was right,” said the actress, who looked stunning even in a simple black top and a pair of dark blue jeans. “I always wanted to do an action movie and Tezz gave me that opportunity to merge performance with the look,” says Sameera Reddy IANS FTER going non-glam in critically acclaimed Red Alert-The War Within which saw quite a few prestigious international awards coming its way, Sameera Reddy would be back to her glamorous best in Tezz. An action affair which is scheduled to arrive this November, the film has Sameera getting into a commercial space two years after De Dana Dan. For someone who is being quite choosy in picking up her assignments, Sameera says that she found herself to be indeed important to the scheme of things when it came to Tezz that made her sign on the dotted line. “That’s true,” Sameera nods in agreement here, “In the film I am basically one of the boys along with Ajay (Devgn). And then there is an emotional twist to the tale as well which makes it all the more loveable. There is a reason revealed about why this girl is behaving in the way she has been right through the film. In an out and out fast paced thriller like Tezz, it’s good to be bagging such a part which really takes the story forward.” Of course along with the film and the character came the look as well which is making Sameera pretty confident about the fact that she would be noticed for sure. “I always wanted to do a full on action movie and Tezz gave me that opportunity to merge performance with the look as well, “she gleams, “Here I have gone quite sleek with that ‘bike-n-babe’ combination.
