2 A MINUTE WITH STAN HOOPER A writer moves to a small town to find ''real'' Americans and discovers they're just like city folk. Except they wear fewer trucker hats.

5 WOODY ALLEN The director wanted millions to write his autobiography. From his days on the playground to his days on the playground.
