Power Plays

Tony Blair has come under fire in Great Britain for his support of the war in Iraq. On Thursday, Britons will decide whether the Labour Party remains in power. Today, we’ll look at the issues at stake, and discuss what a change in government might mean for us on this side of the Atlantic. Then, James Zug describes the life and adventures of the 18th century explorer James Ledyard. Writer-director Paul Haggis—who wrote "Million Dollar Baby"—tells us about his new film "Crash." And Bill Irwin and Mireille Enos discuss their starring roles in the revival of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?.
