		<description><![CDATA[By Ray Pride &#8220;Hysteria,&#8221; in the description of Tanya Wexler, is a hybrid comedy, like Richard Curtis sneaking a vibrator into a Merchant-Ivory production &#8220;with maybe a little Jane Austen flair in the plotting, maybe, if we&#8217;re lucky.&#8221; Set in London 1880, &#8220;Hysteria&#8221; fashions a fanciful history of the invention of the electro-mechanical vibrator.

		<description><![CDATA[RECOMMENDED With as much sprawl as attained ambition, Maïwenn&#8217;s &#8220;Polisse&#8221; is a busy, ragged, largely hand-held procedural mosaic following the workdays of police in the Parisian Child Protection Unit (Brigade de protection des mineurs de Paris). There&#8217;s a whiff of Sidney Lumet in the writer-director&#8217;s rapt attention to group dynamics of a police brigade, mingling [...]]]></description>

Quill is the star of this modest drama that is beige in all too many ways. Like his creamy fur, most of the clothing of the people who train and love him is the same comfortable shade.

It&#8217;s great fun, when things aren&#8217;t exploding, burning or bursting into flame. While the [...]]]></description>
