MOVIES THAT SCREAM TO BE MADE

The only thing that puzzles us is why it's taken so long for someone to come up with the idea of turning Copacabana, the Manilow song, into a film. We're not sure how Manilow intends to extend the three-minute plot into something substantial enough to support a full movie, but it's no more of a challenge than making a decent story out of the bits they had left when they went through War of the Worlds, we guess.

Jessica Simpson shoo-in for the part of Lola, surely?
