...bravely time-travels all the way back to the innocence of Annette and Frankie beach pictures and Elvis movies in which Ann-Margret doesn't appear. The movie takes Grease, whose script it basically copied, and then actually tones it down. "To get the PG rating, we couldn't say 'sex' or 'If you've got it, flaunt it.' Back in the day, you could get away with stuff you can't get away with now," says Idol runner-up Justin Guarini, 24, in a New York City hotel suite. "In Grease they were smoking," says Idol No. 1 Kelly...

...became a sex kitten on stage, singing songs with titles like "Sangre," "Sudor" and "Saliva" ("Blood," "Sweat" and "Saliva"). Her costumes were outrageous and provocative, and her production numbers brought to mind (for those of us who keep track of excesses from all eras) the best moments of Ann-Margret and Nancy Sinatra - although even Ann and Nancy never came on variety shows decked out as an Aztec goddess, a female boxer or a geisha girl...

Scalding hot soup, ice cream, a cookie and an El Producto cigar. That's the lunch diet that has kept GEORGE BURNS going for a century. For Burns, turning 100 this Saturday is no big deal. He'll be feted by Ann-Margret and her mother (among 250 others) at a function celebrating the opening of the Burns and Allen Research Center at Cedars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles, but other than that, it's the quiet life. In his new memoir, 100 Years 100 Stories, the man who used to make jokes about his age, like "I hope...

None of this might have happened had Barnett not convinced a headstrong and homesick theater major that he should give his college one more try. Like Tony Randall, Warren Beatty, Ann-Margret and Charlton Heston before him at Northwestern, Darnell Autry is an actor. Unlike them, he can explode through the line, break tackles and outrace defenders. He rushed for at least 100 yds. in every one of Northwestern's games this year, and had he not been a mere sophomore, he might have got more consideration for the Heisman Trophy...

...this cautionary tale of blond ambition, Kidman concocts a savory cocktail of strychnine and syrup. Imagine a bourgeois sex kitten mistaken for a prom queen. Her eyes are fixed in a cutesy-predatory gaze that evokes and parodies the early Ann-Margret and her cinema avatars Melanie Griffith and Drew Barrymore. Her voice has the blithe assurance of someone who has never been told no. On her teeth is a little lipstick residue, like unlicked blood. She's got It, and she knows how to peddle it. In this small-town, pastel-pretty version of Network, Suzanne strides toward...
