...form cheerfully exploited the other; neither was ever quite the same. By the '60s, movies were an indispensable tool for marketing any hot new group. Richard Lester's A Hard Day's Night pinned the larkish wit of four Liverpudlians on top of the world; Bob Rafelson's Head (co-written with Jack Nicholson) was a brilliant, bilious suicide note from the Monkees to their die-hard fans. Today rock helps sell nonrock pictures from Top Gun to Rocky IV. But it took David Byrne to bring the music back to its roots, to secure it in the mouths...
Crime Story, co-written by ex-Chicago Detective Chuck Adamson and supposedly based on his own experiences, will follow three characters -- the police lieutenant, a rising young mobster (Anthony Denison) and a lawyer (Stephen Lang) -- over a period of nearly two decades.

This is angry, aggressive songwriting, too deft ever to be dogmatic, too melodic ever to turn strident. Lawless Avenues, co-written with Jorge Calderon and driven home hard by Jim Keltner's full-torque drumming, is the album's centerpiece, a contemporary street epic set in a Southern California barrio, where none of the characters get a chance to dream or a clear shot at a fair shake...
Andrea Dworkin, a self-avowed radical feminist, called on Cambridge voters to endorse Question Three on the November 5 ballot. The ordinance, co-written by Catherine MacKinnon, would allow victims recourse to sue pornography distributors, sellers and makers for sex discrimination...
