...opening sequence. Pleasantville is moreover, when one comes down to it, a very weird and potentially unsettling world of doubtful reality.

When Bob Dole left the Senate, we could no longer use his name." Sandler's advice, Morris told TIME, "was always followed." A senior Justice official says Reno's decision will depend in part on what the Federal Election Commission does with its auditors' recommendations that the Clinton and Dole...
