I expected much better from James L. Brooks : I couldn't stand more than twenty minutes of this film. What has happened to James L. Brooks? He has created two of my favorite comedies (Real Life and Broadcast News) and possibly the best show ever on TV (The Simpsons), but this movie was awful. First of all, the script was hackneyed and the characters were one dimensional. I knew who each character was, and I could see the arc of the entire film, in ten minutes. Second, the directing was ham handed. The reactions shots were lengthy, obvious and terrible. Third, the acting was ATROCIOUS. I have never seen a person try as hard to act neurotic at Tea Leoni. Cloris Leachman as the mom was over-the-top wacky, and the "fun" moments suffered the fate of almost all "fun" moments in film: you could literally see the quotation marks around "fun." Everyone look at how much "fun" this is. See my smile? I'm having "fun". I'm really "letting myself go." Contrasting with this was Adam Sandler, who must have been asked to provide a counterbalance to the neurotic hilarity, so he had his entire face botoxed and got voice lessons from Ben Stein. Wooden. Hey, maybe this movie got really good after the first twenty minutes. If so, I would consider it a better comeback than Jesus on Pentecost.

Working with Cultural Differences Dealing Effectively with Diversity in the Workplace Contributions in Psychology

Given the internationalization of business, and the increasing need to work effectively with culturally diverse people in one's own country, people are facing new and more common challenges in developing workplace relationships. The challenges include communicating across differences in the use of silence and indirectness, dealing with negative exchanges, or neutral exchanges that one party perceives as negative, making decisions, working through criticisms and disagreements, and interpreting changing workplace dynamics. In this book, Distinguished Professor Richard Brislin shows us that helpful guidelines for everyday intercultural interactions are clear in information that has been gathered across the fields of cross-cultural psychology, organizational behavior and intercultural communication. A psychologist and a professor of management, Brislin uses actual examples he calls "critical incidents" to illustrate the basic psychological processes that play a part in effective, and ineffective, intercultural relationships across workplaces. The differences they face include individual and collective cultural background, the relative emphasis placed on the importance of status and power, behaviors relative to a culture's social norms, and gender expectations of males and females in the workplace. Insights explained here allow readers understand how they can benefit from, rather than be frustrated by, intercultural experiences, and how to better develop such relations. Short stories throughout the text demonstrate how actual people in business recognized and dealt with intercultural issues, at home and abroad.
