GELL: I haven't yet had a chance to criticize the pseudo-romantic thing between Bennett and Dr. Alan Champion (Dennis Miller), a seldane-popping ("It's the antihistamine of champions," he remarks in one of the film's wittiest moments) psychiatrist who resembles the comedian Yakov Smirnoff, not the host of Weekend Update. Miller appeared uncomfortable in his $4,000 suits and often-forced lines. Also, I was hoping to see more of Miller's character, given the high billing he had in advertisements.

...optimistic economic prognosis from Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan prompted a bullish stock market to nose-dive. Wednesday's sell-off further weakened a market reeling from announcements of lowered profit expectations by Microsoft Corp. and Intel Corp.

...today's brief stampede, coming on top of a 50-point retreat yesterday, may indicate that the bulls are losing confidence. Triggered by a sell-off in technology stocks, trading hit the Nasdaq composite index proportionately harder, pushing it down 38 points. Today's drop followed Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan's upbeat economic report to Congress this morning. "Jittery investors interpreted that to mean no more interest rate cuts by the Fed," explainedTIME's John Greenwald, "and that's not what they wanted to hear." Though Greenspan just last month expressed doubt in the economy's strength, today...
