...people who want to help create a carefree, well-centered version of Genelle--and an inspirational Sept. 11 tale for the rest of us: Victim miraculously lives, turns to God, finds true love (in July, she and longtime boyfriend Roger McMillan had a free "dream wedding" arranged by Bride's magazine and CBS's The Early Show, an event both then covered as news). But her story isn't so simple. People say Sept. 11 was a crucible for our nation, which may or may not be true, but it was doubtlessly a crucible for the person...

Instead, Genelle's life has taken on a staged quality. For months this year, she worked with Bride's to plan her July 13 wedding ceremony--even though she and Roger had married on Nov. 7. (They went to City Hall to wed just before Genelle was baptized at the Brooklyn Tabernacle; she didn't want to be baptized while she was still a fornicator.) Gail and Lauren say Genelle allowed herself to be pushed around by the media planners of the wedding, which was largely denuded of Trinidadian culture. There was a jazz trumpeter instead of calypso, grilled snapper...

"We worked with Genelle and Roger every step.") The couple say they love each other deeply and that any problems they had before 9/11 weren't serious. As for any internal injuries, Genelle, who isn't regularly...

...Kill Bill's plot?the fruit of a late-night chat Tarantino and Thurman had while shooting Pulp Fiction in 1993?is intentionally standard revenge-film fare: a recently retired master assassin, The Bride (played by Thurman) is gunned down on her wedding day by Bill (David Carradine of the 1970s American TV series Kung Fu), her onetime boss and lover. She wakes up from a coma four years later and resolves to wreak vengeance by hunting down the killers in Bill's posse?a multinational Charlie's Angels-style trio called the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad, played by Daryl...

Sixteen years before her death captured the world's attention, Diana's 1981 wedding to Prince Charles was a defining global event; we all watched as the shy young bride made her way down that aisle, trailed by what seemed like miles of white tulle. She looked utterly regal - and, in retrospect, utterly tragic. Who could resist such pageantry, such drama...
