An author's friendship with a young boy has a major impact on his life and his work in this drama from filmmaker Paulo Pecora. A young man looks back on his childhood in a small village along the Parana River in Argentina, where he met a writer (Guillermo Angelelli) who had slipped into a deep depression. The writer was a reclusive sort who collected insect specimens and paddled his boat up and down the river as he sought inspiration, while the boy (Nestor Noriega) was looked after by an elderly relative (Aldo Niebuhr). When the old man died, the boy was left to fend for himself, and happened upon the writer's cabin while the author was pondering destroying himself and his belongings. Realizing the boy had nowhere to do, the writer took him in, and their lives together informed a new writing project. El sueno de perro (aka A Dog's Dream) was screened as an official entry at the 2008 Buenos Aires Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Corruption is the law of the land in the every-city of Edison, and the only soul brave enough to peer into the fire and face the wrath of an entire squad of corrupt cops is a fresh-faced journalist in this neo-noir thriller from television director-turned-feature helmer David J. Burke. Joshua Pollack (Justin Timberlake) has discovered a glitch in the system, and as a fledgling journalist he sees it as his duty to expose the corruption. When Pollack misjudges the depth of the authoritative decay and his girlfriend is hospitalized following a brutal attack by the alliance of crooked cops known as F.R.A.T., he soon decides to take action and prove that even those who believe themselves to be above the law still aren't beyond its reach. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

This 200th episode of ER (actually the 201st in the syndicated package) occurs during a solar eclipse, with the action alternating between the day and night shifts at County General. Holding down the day shift is a bone-weary Carter (Noah Wyle), who must contend with the victims of a cult mass suicide, among many other trying cases. And during the night shift, Pratt (Mekhi Phifer), ostensibly making his final round as a resident, is "redeemed" as he treats a woman whose unborn child was viciously cut from her womb. In other developments, Corday (Alex Kingston) tries to ease the mind of Romano (Paul McCrane) as he prepares to have his injured hand and forearm amputated; and the ER receives an urgent phone call from Kovac (Goran Visnjic) in Africa. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

A lot of people are pissed off when Tony (Carlos Bernard) reveals that the terrorist threat and Jack's (Kiefer Sutherland) "rescue" of Ramon (Joaquim de Almeida) were all part of an elaborate sting operation. Jack left a video explaining his actions, which is played for Palmer (Dennis Haysbert). Jack is going undercover with the Salazar brothers again, in an effort to buy a deadly weaponized virus on the black market. Palmer leaves Tony in charge, and warns him that there will be serious consequences if Jack's plan doesn't work. Palmer's problems with Anne (Wendy Crewson) and Ted Packard (Conor O'Farrell) go away, albeit in unpleasant fashion, and Anne ends their relationship. Jack arrives at Hector's (Vincent Laresca) compound. Ramon still doesn't trust him, so Hector has to try to convince his brother to wait until they make the lucrative deal for the virus before they kill Jack, who's in contact with the dealer, Amador (Greg Ellis). When they get a moment alone, Claudia (Vanessa Ferlito) angrily confronts Jack about reneging on his promise to take her away when he busted Ramon. Jack's plans are further complicated when Chase (James Badge Dale) arrives in Mexico, and is quickly captured by Hector's men. ~ Josh Ralske, All Movie Guide

Through the invention of Jessica Fletcher (Angela Lansbury), a Latin instrumental band fronted by a blind musician cuts a demo record at Manhattan University. Before long, the band is being offered a prestigious contract by a record company--but a mobster makes a count-offer that would be unhealthy to refuse. This, coupled with the murder of a petty crook from the band leader's past, prompts Jessica to take more than an academic interest in the situation. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Anticipating a cornucopia of sexy "eye candy", Al (Ed O'Neill) persuades his boss Gary (Janet Carroll) to open up an aerobics studio next door to the shoe store. Unfortunately, the studio's clientele is comprised entirely of women who are "metabolically challenged"--a new P.C. term for "fat as pigs." In hopes of attracting a more curvaceous flock of females, Al prevails upon Kelly (Christina Applegate) to talk her handsome boyfriend Ramon (Marco Sanchez) into getting a job as an aerobics instructor. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
