An emotional Anne Hathaway, at times struggling to hold back tears, said playing the doomed Fantine, a victim of tragic circumstances if ever there was one, has made her a better person. "I think this film made me more compassionate and more aware," she said backstage, holding her Best Supporting Actress Oscar. The success of the movie, and especially her success in it, has overwhelmed her, she said. "I had a dream," she said, unsuccessfully holding back tears. "and that came true.

Anne Hathaway doesn't exactly fit the profile of young Hollywood today. She went to Vassar, religiously reads The New Yorker and gives up things for Lent. (This year it was Starbucks, chocolate and gossip.) She apologizes for being a "boring" interview, when what she's really acknowledging is she doesn't have any stories of ill-spent nights at Hollywood's Roosevelt Hotel or in Brett Ratner's babe-cave. She blanches at a story about a Jane Austen relative who said (not really, the quote was taken completely out of context)

Grant Hathaway has resigned as a director of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and as the Maryland Republican Party's financial chairman in the wake of an accusation that he violated the Fed's policy against political activity.Hathaway, vice chairman of MNC Financial Inc., said he resigned both posts to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest."We believe there is no conflict of interest," MNC Financial spokesman Daniel G. Finney said yesterday. "But he [Hathaway]

William E. "Bill" Hathaway, an emergency medical services expert who taught the subject at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County and earlier had served in the Army Intelligence Corps, died Nov. 1 of cancer at his home in Amherst, Va. The former Annapolis resident was 75. Mr. Hathaway was born in Chicago and moved in 1945 with his family to McLean, Va., where he graduated in 1955 from Fairfax High School.

The directors of Baltimore Behavioral Health Inc., a major drug treatment provider in Baltimore, have laid off longtime executive William "Kris" Hathaway, as the once high-flying nonprofit continues to cut costs. The board of directors had earlier removed Hathaway as chief executive and put vice president Terry T. Brown in charge of the clinic, which specializes in treating people with both addiction and mental illness. In an emailed response to questions from The Baltimore Sun, board member Jay Miller said that Hathaway was laid off "in the interest of saving money.

State health regulators disclosed Thursday that they have fined Baltimore Behavioral Health Inc. $90,000 for employing a psychiatrist who had been convicted several years earlier of Medicaid fraud. The fine equals the salary and benefits that the nonprofit clinic paid Dr. Roman Ostrovsky during the 14 months he worked there as an administrator. State officials said BBH should never have hired him because he was on a federal no-hire list because of his fraud conviction. The penalty comes amid questions about the finances at the West Pratt Street mental health clinic, which was the subject of a recent Baltimore Sun investigation.

A movie about June weddings - why open it in the depths of January? The studio probably hopes that the bloom of New York (actually, Boston) in fair weather would lift moviegoers' hearts. Nothing else in this desperately unfunny farce would do it. Bride Wars has possibly the worst comedy idea since Springtime for Hitler, with almost no room for redeeming camp. Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway play Liv and Emma, inseparable friends for 20 years who've also fantasized about getting married at the Plaza Hotel for 20 years.

Samuel Johnson famously remarked that a second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience. Director Jonathan Demme and screenwriter Jenny Lumet, in their tumultuous and moving Rachel Getting Married, suggest that this saying applies to a first marriage, too, when the bride or groom is the product of a shattered family. Of course, Rachel Buchman's doting father, Paul (Bill Irwin), and his second wife, Carol (Baltimore native Anna Deavere Smith), wish great happiness for the bride-to-be (Rosemarie DeWitt)

When you see her in the opening shot of the splendid Rachel Getting Married, dragging casually yet also urgently on a cigarette, her flowing hair chopped, her expression cryptic and intense, it may take you a while to register her as Anne Hathaway. That's just another way of saying you see her immediately as her character, Kym, a recovering drug addict about to return home for the wedding of her sister, Rachel. What's astonishing about Hathaway's performance in this wrenching tragicomedy is that it never loses that initial gleam of shock and surprise.

Warren Buffett to the rescue: His Berkshire Hathaway Inc. agreed yesterday to invest $5 billion in Goldman Sachs Group by way of a purchase of preferred stock. Berkshire also will get warrants to buy up to $5 billion of Goldman common shares.
