  8. 'At Any Price': Seeds of woe down on the farm ★★ 1/2

    "At Any Price," a roughly mixed but interestingly plotted offshoot of "Death of a Salesman" and other hardy father/son perennials, is the fourth feature from writer-director Ramin Bahrani, whose career has been remarkable for his consistency of theme as well as his eagerness to nudge himself toward greater ambition.

  9. Dennis Quaid: 'At Any Price' star puts experiences to use

    There was a time, in the late 1980s, when each new film starring Dennis Quaid was The One. The one destined to make him not just an actor, not just an actor with guts and a wily, toothy joker's grin, but a huge box-office-reliable star. In the summer of 1987, The One was the adventure fantasy “Innerspace,” which turned out to be a medium hit. Two summers later it was the Jerry Lee Lewis biopic “Great Balls of Fire!” in which Quaid whooped it up to yahoo Himalayan heights. Again, not a disaster. But not The One.

  12. Impatient Cop Pulls Gun At Drive-Thru

    <span style="font-size: small;">We all get cranky when we&rsquo;re hungry. But a police detective in DeKalb County, Georgia, allegedly grew so impatient at the local McDonald&rsquo;s drive-thru that he pointed his gun at the other customers. According to police reports, Det. Sgt. Scott Biumi became frustrated with the truck in front of him. So he pulled his Chevrolet Impala in front of the truck, stepped out, and hurled expletives at the driver, 18-year-old Ryan Marsh. Biumi then pulled out his gun and aimed it at Marsh&rsquo;s head shouting (note content) &ldquo;You don&rsquo;t know who you&rsquo;re ***ing with.&rdquo; He then holstered his weapon and drove off. Marsh, who happens to be work at the McDonald&rsquo;s, didn&rsquo;t know Biumi was a cop &ndash; he was off-duty and wearing plain clothes. But Marsh&rsquo;s friend noticed Biumi&rsquo;s badge on his belt and the two were able to grab his license plate number. Biumi was arrested at his home and charged with aggravated assault. "It appears that he had a severe break in judgment," said Forsythe County Sheriff Duane K. Piper. "It appears that the entire situation evolved from him being angry at the time it was taking for him to get his food."</span>
