...PURPLE,' 11; 'AFRICA,' 11; SPIELBERG, 0. That Los Angeles Times headline last week trumpeted the most anomalous Oscar nomination outcome in recent years. Both chosen as best picture candidates, Out of Africa and The Color Purple tied for the most nominations with eleven each. Africa's total included a nomination for best actress to Meryl Streep and for best director to Sydney Pollack, but while Whoopi Goldberg was named for Purple, Director Steven Spielberg was glaringly omitted, after being nominated three times in the past.

...lectures on the beauty of female sexuality. Large sculptures of ancient fertility deities serve as a backdrop as Oscar's wife discusses the oppression of women through the ages. Most of the male characters are portrayed with the same comic flatness that marked and marred Steven Speilberg's The Color Purple. Men fight ridiculous fights, and say ridiculous things in bed, while they garner physical pleasures from Wertmuller's beautiful bisexual females...
