MOVIES: GRACE OF MY HEART To watch a movie set in recent decades is to run a reality check on the cast and crew. Are they wearing the accurately awful frocks? Any anachronistic dialogue? In this game of dueling memories we may be no closer to the truth than the filmmakers, but hey, we were there. Any fiction movie becomes, in our eyes, a failed documentary. In Allison Anders" Grace of My Heart, there's little doubt that the tale of Denise Waverly (Ileana Douglas), who in the early '60s marries a young lyricist (Eric Stoltz) and with him writes...
...results didn't satisfy anyone. Network anchors obsessed constantly about the "tightly scripted" event they were forced to endure. Ted Koppel and the Nightline crew got so frustrated they left town. Republican officials grumbled that their TV extravaganza was getting short shrift from the network cameras.

These are effective, though they show signs of emptying the author's notebooks of a lifetime of cherished oddities, including the story that in the 1730s, Russia's Czarina Anna Ivanovna caused...
...Jack isn't worth sticking it out at the Republican convention any longer. The Nightline host is heading home, claiming that amid the puffery and made-for-TV grandstanding, there just isn't any news to cover at the GOP pow-wow. Koppel is taking most of his crew along, and says he won't bother even showing up at the Democratic Convention. "This convention is more of an infomercial than a news event," Koppel said at the end of his broadcast Tuesday night. "Nothing surprising has happened. Nothing surprising is anticipated." ABC News is continuing to cover the convention...
