Making a Eurotrash eye-candy action thriller at Penn’s age was total folly, no doubt, but I honor the perversity and arrogance of the impulse. Sure, he could be doing Eugene O’Neill on stage or working with the Coens or doing weird European movies or whatever. (And he has: Bizarre and almost unwatchable as Paolo Sorrentino’s “This Must Be the Place” is, Penn is unforgettable as an aging Goth-rock idol turned Nazi-hunter, apparently modeled on Robert Smith of the Cure.) But why settle for delicacy and quality when the brass ring of vainglory is out there longing to be grasped? At the screening of “The Gunman” I attended, several people were openly laughing at the movie’s grandiose, sub-Hemingway macho-fantasy symbolism, its woozy blend of hot girls, hot cars and “white people in hot weather” locations. My reaction was different: This movie is like drinking tequila for two hours. The first hour feels like the most fun you’ve ever had, and then the second hour undoes that feeling and then some, leaving you empty, repentant and throbbing in pain on a concrete floor.
But I’ll be damned if Penn doesn’t pull it off, although I’m not sure the public is lining up to see the guy who played Harvey Milk transformed into a hard-body CIA assassin seeking redemption. (Do I sense a mashup in the making?) I genuinely don’t want to know what kind of terrifying pharmaceutical and/or bodybuilding regimen was involved in reshaping Penn’s physique for this role as a reformed black-ops spook named Jim Terrier — but OMG people! With his clothes on, the Penn of 2015 looks like a dead ringer for longtime NBA coach Pat Riley. But when he doffs the shirt, dude is ripped. There’s a level of narrative confusion here that I guess befits a movie whose worldview and politics are so thoroughly addled: On one hand, Terrier is supposed to be a battered, haunted killer suffering from memory loss and possible dementia after multiple head injuries; on the other, he’s an indestructible ass-kicking machine who repeatedly takes on teams of Special Forces-type guys and rips them apart.

At times I couldn’t help wondering whether this device struck a note of preciousness, or detached us from the grim reality of Panh’s memories, as when Panh’s own father chooses to die rather than struggle along on Khmer Rouge starvation rations. Quite likely that’s the point of this lovely, rueful memoir – to render some of the most dreadful events of modern history (and of one human being’s life) as a delicate work of the imagination. “This missing picture,” his narrator says near the end of the film, “I now hand over to you.” Panh intends “The Missing Picture” as a gift to his own family, to the Cambodian nation and to history, as a testament that the Khmer Rouge’s efforts to destroy Cambodian culture failed, despite all the death and suffering they caused.

And then the third other woman is introduced, making this into a three-way love story. Mark, it turns out, has also been sleeping with Amber, played by Kate Upton in all her bikini-clad glory. The film treats the bikini and its contents as a major, riveting reveal; Kate and Carly are looking through binoculars to spy on Mark and when they see whom he’s with, they collapse into breathless ecstasies of jealousy that are, for all intents and purposes, indistinguishable from lust. ?Amber and Kate bond almost instantly, with Kate swooning over the heavenly smell of Amber’s sweat. The two of them then dance around together before all three head to the ocean for some (off-camera) skinny-dipping.
Toward the end of the film, Amber declares her love for the other two women, while adding the caveat that she hopes that they never sleep with the same man again. Then the plot denouement involves everybody wildly hooking up with everyone else’s relatives. Friendship and love are intertwined and intermixed; soul mates, the film insists, are soul mates, platonic or otherwise. And it all can be traced back to the cause of this scrum of soul-mating: Mark’s infidelity. In the end, he gets punished, in a rather ― to put it delicately ― hyperbolic way. “The Other Woman” isn’t exactly a genre-buster. But this may be the movie’s boldest stroke: that a rom-com in which the man isn’t redeemed can still have a happy ending.

Of course, it is up to Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. to decide whether to seek an indictment of Petraeus, and I predict he will not. Not only does he lack the fortitude to do so, but there is no political will (in fact, quite the opposite), and these cases have had everything to do with politics and nothing to do with justice. High-ranking members of Congress said it is unfair to keep the matter hanging over Petraeus’ head. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.,?cried, “[We] can’t afford to have his voice silenced or curtailed by the shadow of a long-running, unresolved investigation marked by leaks from anonymous sources.”?Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif.,?pleaded, “This man has suffered enough. . . He made a mistake. He lost his job because of it. I mean, how much do you want to punish somebody?”
