Entertainment Weekly: The Must List
(Entertainment Weekly) -- Punk girls, disco divas and eight other things Entertainment Weekly recommends this week:
1. "Millions" Danny Boyle, family-friendly? Yup. There are no junkies or zombies in his tenderhearted yarn about two wee lads and some heaven-sent swag.
EW Review: "Millions"
2. "Heat" On a new two-disc DVD set: Al Pacino and Robert De Niro star in Michael Mann's sleek reinvention of the cops-and-robbers genre.
3. "The Fabulous Sylvester," by Joshua Gamson Sequin-clad, gender-bending disco diva Sylvester, who died of AIDS in 1988, gets his props in this passionate, poignant bio.
4. "Cut," The Slits On this new reissue, England's late-'70s riot femmes snarl and spit through 12 jagged shards of serrated reggae-punk.
5. Kieran Culkin in "After Ashley" Mac's bro goes down -- and burns up the stage -- in Gina Gionfriddo's bleak comedy of family tragedy and media madness.
6. "Kafka on the Shore," by Haruki Murakami Reality blurs with the absurd, and the profound collides with the mundane in this enigmatic, enthralling Japanese tale of a cat-catching misfit and a teen runaway (named Kafka).
7. Faye Dunaway on "The Starlet" The highlight of The WB's frighteningly watchable ''Top Model'' knockoff is the erstwhile Mommie Dearest -- a loopier Simon Cowell to some thespian wannabes.
8. Channel101.com Vote on a lineup of Web shorts -- like the hilarious ''O.C.'' parody, ''The 'Bu'' -- at this low-budget, high-laffs site. If only TV worked this way ...
9. "The Best of Youth" If you loved ''The Leopard,'' check out this six-hour Italian epic. As addictive as a soap opera and as deep as a literary classic.
EW Review: "The Best of Youth"
10. "Laura" Watch the DVD and you'll understand why anyone who's seen Gene Tierney in Otto Preminger's 1944 noir classic has been haunted by her ever since.
