Valkyrie, you'll recall, is the Bryan Singer-directed thriller in which Cruise plays a German officer who tried to assassinate Hitler. That project has hit some bumps on its way to theaters. Meanwhile, Cruise is also making an attempt to go back to his roots. But making that happen isn't simple: It seems that the Cruise camp recently reached out to Paramount about making Mission: Impossible 4 and got seriously disavowed.truenotochyperlinkno200861215205PMThursdayJunJune136/12/2008 5:52:05 PM6334887552500000002008617125849PMTuesdayJunJune126/17/2008 4:58:49 PM633493043290000000hollywoodlandHBO's Roman Polanski ProblemKim MastersA crucial scene of a celebrated documentary turns out to be wrong.noHBO's Roman Polanski ProblemHBO's Roman Polanski problem.noRewind: Tonight, HBO airs Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired, a documentary that, according to the HBO press materials, raises "lasting questions about … the U.S. legal system."

Recall that the network said it would forgo all of that this year, opting for the "in-front" session several weeks ago. So instead of filling Radio City Music Hall with advertisers and the press, as usual, the network will instead have reporters walk through some sort of display that will expose us to the many facets of NBC—including its mighty cable properties and the Internet stuff that CEO Jeff Zucker bored us with in upfronts past.truenotochyperlinkno20085814532PMThursdayMayMay135/8/2008 5:45:32 PM6334585113200000002008512122555PMMondayMayMay125/12/2008 4:25:55 PM633461919550000000hollywoodlandAnalyze ThisKim MastersHow did a Robert De Niro flop get chosen to close Cannes?noAnalyze ThisHow did a Robert De Niro flop get chosen to close Cannes?noWeird: We've never been to the Cannes Film Festival, which is our loss, no doubt.
