Next on the 3-D Bandwagon: Werner Herzog

Werner Herzog will reportedly join Martin Scorsese in the race to become the first internationally recognized auteur to adopt 3-D. More jaw-dropping still: The Bavarian master/raconteur/adventurer will use the technology on a documentary about cave paintings . “I can have only three people with me, and I can use only lights which must not create temperature,” Herzog said of the filming process. “For each shot, because the technology is not really advanced, we had to build [our] own camera from zero using a specific configuration of lenses and mirrors. We are doing something nobody has done with 3-D.” Sounds great! Not so great: The odds of finding an art-house theater that can project it. [ Roger Ebert via The Guardian ]

Meet Mikey Hicks, 8, on US Terror Watch List

“The Transportation Security Administration, under scrutiny after last month’s bombing attempt, has on its Web site a “mythbuster” that tries to reassure the public. “Meet Mikey Hicks,” said Najlah Feanny Hicks, introducing her 8-year-old son, a New Jersey Cub Scout and frequent traveler who has seldom boarded a plane without a hassle because he shares the name of a suspicious person. “It’s not a myth.” Michael Winston Hicks’s mother initially sensed trouble when he was a baby and she could not get a seat for him on their flight to Florida at an airport kiosk; airline officials explained that his name “was on the list,” she recalled.

While her reviews are tepid at best (the Guardian wrote that it avoided being butchered), with Jude Law in Hamlet , and Daniel Craig and Hugh Jackman in Steady Rain , it’s nice to see an amazing pair of legs taking on a “The Great White Way.” Fun fact! Sienna dated both Law and Craig! Wonder what it’s like to work a few doors down from such high profile ex-boyfriends?
