...Bringing Out the Dead owes a lot to New York City, its silent costar, but there's another central contender as well--the hospital dubbed Our Lady of Misery. There's a column of bullying power in the black police officer who, like Saint Peter, mans the entrance to the clinic, deciding who is admitted and who is not. But through the steely gates is not paradise, for this overcrowded, understaffed clinic has patients writhing and screaming within every cinematic inch.

The Food and Drug Administration refuses them permission to test it, so they steal an embryo, fertilize it and implant it in Alex's abdomen. After which nature -- if that's the word we want -- takes its course. The Kevin Wade-Chris Conrad screenplay takes some humorless pains to make this science fiction plausible, and it's smart of director Ivan Reitman to be patient with...
...costar with Billy Blaks in what she described As an action film about an ex-CIA agent. "This is the first role that was Worth leaving school for," she said yesterday...
