With numerous exceptions, Robert De Niro's filmography has generally been divided between early drama and late comedy. In accepting the Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement, De Niro leaned heavily on the latter.

Deep snow smothered the noise. Only fresh footprints leading to the tumbledown house in a suburb of the Belarussian capital Minsk betrayed life behind its boarded-up windows.

Inside, actors strutted and pounced barefoot on black floorboards while the tiny audience shared the makeshift stage for the Saturday night performance.

The converted house that is home to the Belarus Free Theater is a far cry from London's Soho, where its actors last performed.

What began as a grand, highly promoted experiment in late-night, ended in a fiasco that made NBC a laughing stock and captivated the country.

In January 2010, NBC sought to displace its newly crowned "Tonight Show" host, Conan O'Brien, by restoring Jay Leno to 11:35 p.m. O'Brien, however, didn't go for the 30 minute shift, and the fallout made for one of the most public debacles in network history.

Allegiances were drawn, with many supporting "Team CoCo." In the end, O'Brien…

Harlem Globetrotters great Meadowlark Lemon remembers the day he first saw the team that would become his life's story as if it were yesterday.

In the darkened Ritz Theater in Wilmington, N.C., he sat mesmerized as newsreel footage showed the famous tricksters of basketball going through their paces to the delight of fans.

The widow of The Doors singer Jim Morrison says Florida's intention to pardon him for a 1969 indecent exposure conviction is a cheap political ploy.

Patricia Kennealy Morrison told The Associated Press Thursday that she's not pleased with the pardon and doesn't think the late singer would be either because he didn't expose himself on stage as some claim.
