...about Pearl Harbor, it's not a treatise, it's a movie. And as a movie, A.I. engrosses without quite enthralling. It's got technological wonders (the seamless integration of Teddy as a puppet and a computer image) that are truly wonderful. Scenes like the Flesh Fair and a chase through the woods display the supple camera work, dramatic lighting and savvy editing that you get when a terrific filmmaker is on his game. He isn't always, though. Intriguing plot twists (like the exploits of the nicely malicious Martin) are dropped for excursions that are more about art direction...

Henry Awards), and becoming a singer was, she once told me, merely the result of "thinking it was a really cool thing to do." Few of us will ever chase a dream so fruitfully. But Susannah, her sweet nature nicely balanced by an irresistible determination, worked and worked at it, and by the time her skills had caught up with her matchless taste, she had become one of the finest singers in captivity...

Though comparisons are being drawn, the Blake-Bakley case is not quite the O.J. Simpson saga. The glamour quotient is low, and no high-speed white Ford Bronco chase has hypnotized the nation. Last week the police were only calling Blake a witness, though they have not ruled him out as a suspect. They dusted him for gunpowder traces the night of the crime and found none. Still, there is some incredulity at the split-second timing of events in the tale he tells...
