Today's film came out in 2006.  It starred Matt Damon, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jack Nicholson, Martin Sheen, Ray Winstone, Vera Farmiga, Anthony Anderson, Alec Baldwin, and Mark Wahlberg who as Staff Sergeant Sean Dignam say, "I'm the guy who does his job. You must be the other guy."

We also mark the anniversary of the births of Edwin Hubble, John Wessel, a few filmmaking milestones, the 425th anniversary of the first (fully surviving) opera, and the opening of the Moulin Rouge! cabaret club.
