Law firm stood up for powerless workers

When Paul Sprenger was a young law student, he thought his bread would be "buttered with a regular payday from a large business law firm." But Sprenger said representing business clients "left me kind of cold." So he created his own firm with two other lawyers in Minneapolis and quickly became a thorn in the side of corporate America.

Film review: The Vintner's Luck

It wasn't supposed to be this way. Niki Caro, the director of Whale Rider and North Country , should have been a great match for Elizabeth Knox's novel.

Michelle Monaghan deglams for Trucker'

Michelle Monaghan is going all Charlize Theron on us. In her latest movie, "Trucker," the actress scraps the stylist to embody Dianne Ford, a hardened, hard-drinking tomboy who drives a big rig cross-country. It's a stretch from the roles the Iowa-born cutie, 33, usually plays - "Made of Honor," "Heartbreak Kid" and their rom-com ilk.
