ALBANY, N.Y. - The state is investigating the charitable foundation of Anne Hathaway's boyfriend, a spokesman for the attorney general said Monday.

My first introduction to “Les Misérables,” the epic, schmaltzy musical loosely based on the Victor Hugo novel, was the most recent New York production in 2006. While the revolving barricade was certainly a sight to see, it was largely an unmemorable, not terribly affecting experience, which is why I came into Tom Hooper’s new film adaptation with relatively low expectations.

"Rachel Getting Married" is a magical wallow in excess, a too-happy, too-sad, too-indulgent plunge into an overplanned wedding. Jonathan Demme's gorgeously messy movie is shot and acted like real life - real life that's over the top in its emotions, its family strife, its blend of awkward farce and painful drama.

When you burst onto movie screens as a 17-year- old unknown in "The Princess Diaries," a sleeper comedy that goes on to gross a whopping $108 million, the movie — and the part of sweet, clumsy Princess Mia — tends to follow you around.

NEW YORK — They've both played superheroes. They've both hosted the Oscars. But what unites "Les Miserables" co-stars Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway most is a deep, some might even say geeky love of musical theater.

HOLLYWOOD — According to Anne Hathaway, if it hadn’t been for her sick chocolate Lab keeping her awake all night, she might not have gotten the role of the much-loved British author Jane Austen in the new film “Becoming Jane,” which opened Friday.
