Viggo Mortensen steps in Hidalgos mediocre manure
Orlando Citybeat WriterJust for the record, Hidalgo is the name of Viggo Mortensen's horse. It's not Viggo's character's name, it's not the name of the race he participates in, and it's not Spanish for "mediocrity" at least as far as I know. Hidalgo is also the name of the...Tags: Indiana Jones (fictional character), Death, Joe Johnston, Viggo Mortensen, Movies

Redford's Sundance success clouded by failed ventures
Times Staff WriterFor much of January, snow, ice and freezing wind shut down Portland, Ore. Annual rainfall the rest of the year averages 3 feet. It's the kind of city, in short, where it would be folly to design a movie theater with a retractable roof. And yet that was...Tags: Film Festivals, Wage Contract Issues, Festive Events, Brad Pitt, Sundance Film Festival
