"Caring for an elderly parent can be extremely challenging.

In Trading Places: Becoming My Mother’s Mother, author Sandra Bullock Smith shares her personal experiences spending ten years caring for her ailing mother. This heartfelt look at the trials and tribulations of that decade ..."
"Flugzeugabstürze, Taschendiebe, Hurrikane -- Himmel und Hölle sind in Bewegung, um unseren fähigen Helden Ben (Ben Affleck) davon abzuhalten, in Savannah seinen Schatz (Maura Tierney) zu heiraten. An jeder Ecke begegnet ihm jemand anderes, der von den Qualen des Ehelebens zu berichten weiß. Und gleichzeitig wird er in der Person seiner Reisegefährtin Sarah (Sandra Bullock), einer wilden Frau, die er nicht los wird -- nicht loswerden wil ..."
"The Net, the first of Hollywood's big cyberthrillers of the mid-1990s, was also the most successful, thanks in large part to the natural appeal of star Sandra Bullock. Still riding high from Speed and While You Were Sleeping, Bullock plays a computer expert victimized by sinister cyberforces who steal her identity for reasons unknown. It's a clever combination of high-tech paranoia and Hitchcockian references (including Jeremy Northam ..."
"For a while The Net looked like it was going to be quickly outdated by the technology it showcased. But now we know that anyone can personalise their systems and Internet search engines, so the colourful displays endlessly intercut on Sandra Bullock's screens look perfectly contemporary. As a movie, the concept was already outdated by the time of its 1995 release, however. The plot takes pains to emulate the style and formula of a Hitch ..."
"New videos and interactive activities in InQuizitive for Writers reveal multiple ways to understand and apply the book's advice, and are complemented by new instructor resources that respond to today's teaching challenges"--"
"In the Sixth Edition, new coauthor Deborah Bertsch shows students how to adapt their writing to new rhetorical situations with three new chapters-Remixes, Explorations, and Reflecting on Your Writing."
""Certainly as good [as Capote] and a lot more fun. Toby Jones is so physically right, you'll think Capote is playing himself." - Jack Mathews, NEW YORK DAILY NEWS 1959 Manhattan was a party, and none of the glitterati glittered brighter than Truman Capote. Then he saw a story in The New York Times: "Wealthy Farmer, 3 of Family Slain," and the party ended for Capote. He plunged into the murder case that inspired his great "nonfiction nov ..."

Catwoman: Catwoman is the story of meek, mild-mannered artist Patience Philips, who works for Hedare Beauty, a mammoth cosmetics company on the verge of releasing a revolutionary anti-aging product.

"F.B.I. operative Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock) famously went undercover in a beauty pageant a while back, and now she's supposedly so recognizable that her only use to the agency is as a pretty public representative. Dumped by her boyfriend (whom Benjamin Bratt wisely decided not to portray this time around), a gloomy Gracie goes along with the promo biz until her friend, Miss United States (Heather Burns), is kidnapped along with pagean ..."
"It's a good thing Sandra Bullock knows her strengths and weaknesses, because without Bullock as star and producer, Miss Congeniality would be an insufferable mess as opposed to being a mildly enjoyable trifle that is custom-made for Bullock's established screen persona. Only Bullock's fans could really appreciate this fluff (even then they'll wish its ripe premise had been more intelligently handled), but it's not without some highlight ..."
"Bachelor, The/In Love and War (DVD) (DBFE) (Multi-Title)The Bachelor: Jimmie's grandfather dies and leaves him $100 million - on the condition that Jimmie marry before he turns 30. The problem is, that's 24 hours away. In Love and War: Sandra Bullock and Chris O'Donnell star in Academy Award-winner Richard Attenborough's epic love story about Ernest Hemingway.]]"
"Die F.B.I.-Büroangestellte Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock) erlangte von einiger Zeit bei einem Schönheitswettbewerb als Undercover-Agentin Berühmtheit, und nun ist sie offensichtlich so bekannt, dass sie der Agentur nur noch als hübsche Vertreterin für Öffentlichkeitsarbeit taugt. Nachdem sie von ihrem Freund (den Benjamin Bratt dieses Mal in weiser Voraussicht nicht spielen wollte) verlassen wird, macht die betrübte Gracie mit ihrer Promo ..."
"Nahezu jede Verfilmung einer Geschichte aus der Bibel ist ein ehrgeiziges, ambitioniertes Werk, denn jeder Filmemacher weiß, dass er nicht mit irgendeiner Geschichte spielt, sondern mit den Inhalten des heiligsten Buches des westlichen Hemisphäre. Kein Wunder, dass DreamWorks für ihren ersten abendfüllenden Zeichentrickfilm, der Geschichte von Moses, nicht weniger als drei Regisseure und 16 Autoren beschäftigte, um die Geschichte mit de ..."
"28 Days To appreciate 28 Days, it's best to be thankful that director Betty Thomas hasn't forced Sandra Bullock into a remake of Clean and Sober. Instead Thomas has balanced her comedic sensibility (evident in Dr. Dolittle and Private Parts) with the seriousness of alcoholism and substance abuse, and she succeeds without compromising the gravity of the subject matter. Some critics have scoffed at the movie's breezy, formulaic portrait o ..."
"You'd expect a cavalcade of cuteness from any pairing of Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant, but Two Weeks Notice admirably avoids the obvious. You get plenty of Bullock's pratfalls and feisty sex appeal, and Grant's snappy comebacks are never in short supply, but first-time writer-director Marc Lawrence (who wrote Bullock's previous hit, Miss Congeniality) adds just enough antagonism to keep this romantic comedy from being a completely ..."
