DEFICIT at AFI FEST 2007 presented by Audi
DIR: Gael Garcia Bernal
SCR: Kyzza Terrazas
PROD: Pablo Cruz, Gael García Bernal, Diego Luna, Luciana Kaplan
DP: Eugenio Polgovsky
ED: Alex Rodríguez
PROD DES: Mily Moreno
CAST: Luz Cipriota, Tenoch Huerta Mejía, Camila Sodi, Gael García Bernal, Ana Serradilla
Actor Gael García Bernal's directing debut is infused with an infectious, youthful energy, voyeuristically following his complex characters at a house party just outside of Mexico City.
Bourgeois, rich kid Cristobal (García Bernal) is having his friends over for a barbecue at his parents' weekend home. His younger sister (Camila Sodi) and her hippie, pill-popping friends are also staying at the house, and the clash between the two groups of friends, brother and sister, and their childhood friend who works for the family is just the beginning of the story.
Bernal uses subtle undercurrents of tension to seamlessly interlace characters, time and place. Both comic and reflective, DEFICIT is an elegant allegory for current Mexico on the brink of change. Shot in an immediate, improvisational style that emphasizes the class chasms, Bernal elicits layered performances from his young cast, proving himself to be a gifted director as well as a charismatic actor.
Length: 103

Another reason why the Bush legacy will be to take us from the World's most formidable military and financial power steps closer to being third world nation.

Money Minute: Economy, Deficit, Hot Dogs
BusinessMoney Minute: Economy, Deficit, Hot DogsMoney Minute: Economy, Deficit, Hot DogsThe Associated PressThe Fed's new snapshot of business conditions underscored two big sore spots for the country: listless economic activity coupled with high energy and food prices. (June 11)The Fed's new snapshot of business conditions underscored two big sore spots for the country: listless economic activity coupled with high energy and food prices. Those rising prices carry the risk of both spreading inflation and putting another drag on overall economic growth. Over the past week, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke and his colleagues have been sounding an ever-louder alarm against inflation. Given those concerns, Bernanke has signaled the Fed's rate-cutting campaign - started last September to bolster the weak economy - is probably over for now.-------------------------A flood of economic stimulus payments pushed the federal budget deficit to an all-time high of $165.9 billion in May. The Treasury Department says the May deficit was more than double the imbalance in May 2007. That number reflects $48 billion in payments as part of the government's $168 billion economic stimulus plan. For the first eight months of the budget year, the deficit totals $319.4 billion, slightly below the all-time record for this period of $346 billion, set in the 2004 budget year.----------------------------America's two largest hot dog makers are waging a wiener war as grills fire up this summer, hoping to win over customers and secure the No. 1 spot atop the stagnating frank market.The latest round in the long-running feud comes as Kraft Foods' Oscar Mayer brand gives its signature hot dog a makeover aimed at stealing momentum from Sara Lee's Ball Park Franks.Kraft hopes its reformulation - its first in 20 years - and a massive promotional campaign attract new customers and their palates with a zestier, meatier recipe. May the best dog win. I'm Mark Hamrick with AP Money Minute ___ ___, The Associated Press.(****END****)
