You know how colleagues or teammates or the whole office chip in to celebrate a friend’s big news? Here’s an opportunity to provide young parents and on-again sweethearts Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston with a relevant video library — well, with a list of titles, anyway — that suits their lifestyle. What should they watch on their big flat-screen TV on the many nights when they’re home together with baby Tripp, just the two of them, no babysitting relief, and they’re tired of playing Boggle?

.Training for Bev Donofrio was great because I spent a lot of time with her,. Barrymore said. .I didn.t have the benefit of spending time with Little Edie. I had to really just change everything about myself. I have facial paralyses and talk out of the side of my mouth. Edie talks very forward. All the lips go forward. She has no R.s. She has a completely different accent, completely, because she talks like a little girl. Everything is different and I had to learn to do all of that. I didn.t know if I was capable of that,...

That story echoes Barrymore's mother's experience after she split with John Barrymore Jr., now 69. Drew adds, "She dared to raise a child without a father. My father wasn't around, and when he was, he was drunk and abusive. She protected me from him. I resented the s*** out of my mom, but she stuck it out. She didn't bail on me."...
