...first note, the sweaty, expectant crowd, which had seen the band pushed on MTV for months, began to dance. There's no dancing at alternative-rock shows--people merely mosh, which is as close to dancing as car crashes are to figure skating. But when the Prodigy's deep bass groove hit the crowd, they were off. Feet were moving in time, and arms were swaying with the rhythm. Dance-rock was cool again...
...near motiveless malignity, especially as it is largely directed at Cameron Diaz's Kimmy, the bride-to-be. She's pert and pretty, smart and spunky--not at all someone we wish ill. When our sympathies shift to her, the movie sours. It is no help either that Ronald Bass neglected to write (or Mulroney was unable to find) a character in Michael.

Hogan (Muriel's Wedding) stages a couple of marvelously giddy musical numbers, and Rupert Everett is terrific as the voice of sweet homosexual reason...

Even though he was shot down in the end, Grobmyer made bridge-building history: his project combined Baker, the firm's counsel; Alex Copson, a sometime bass player with the British rock band Iron Butterfly; and Dan Murphy, a retired admiral who had held top jobs in the CIA and the Bush vice presidency. Grobmyer's plan was heard far and wide: it reached Clinton twice by letter, and it landed in offices as high as Deputy...
...fixin's clambake--complete with damp rocks, a recalcitrant fire and lobsters that trudge purposefully out from under the tarp--Sheila Lukins' U.S.A. Cookbook (Workman; $19.95) is the way to go. Better to read about her fresh peas than harvest your own bullets, and to serve her herbed bass than your limp concoction that drives the guests out after the lobsters...
