Steven Spielberg’s “ Lincoln ” screened Monday night at the New York Film Festival and garnered a positive initial response, as well as predictions that Daniel Day-Lewis, Tommy Lee Jones, Sally Field and virtually everyone involved in the film will be nominated for Oscars.

AS part of Universal’s centennial celebration that studio has reissued “Jaws” (1975) on Blu-ray in a newly restored edition, retrofitted with a remixed 7.1-channel stereo soundtrack. Happily, the filmmakers have resisted the temptation to replace Bruce, the balky mechanical shark (actually three of them, used for different types of shots) whose frequent breakdowns helped swell the shooting schedule to 159 days from 55, with a digitally animated creature.

But, people, check out the photo on the left. Richmond, Va., native Michael Phillips snapped and tweeted the photo from a local restaurant ("Lincoln" is shooting in the area.) You'd swear Honest Abe himself had just strolled in and ordered a salad, even though the actor wasn't even in costume.

"Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" is not a very good movie.

Thundering typhoons! Steven Spielberg has won the seal of approval of Tintin's native land—and that's no mean feat.
