...mountain settled some unfinished business. That was that. But hype has a life of its own, and she was rewarded on her return with her country's equivalent of a knighthood, an interview on David Letterman's late-night TV show. She is little, blond and cute, and probably could have carried Letterman on her back to the top of the Statue of Liberty. His questions were gingerly and puzzled. She, as it happened, had never seen Letterman's show, but friends had explained its tribal rituals. No 19th century explorer snacking on pickled sheep's eyes could have honored...

...moment. The pratfall pandemonium of the opening scene of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum makes one long for a full-scale Broadway revival. The dance suite of teen gang wars adapted from West Side Story actually benefits by being divorced from the original's cute, coy lyrics, which in life would not tumble trippingly from the tongues of underprivileged youth. The wide-eyed wonder of city life may never have been more vibrantly shown than among the World War II-era sailors aprowl in On the Town. The comic chase among cops, con men, thugs...

...this is the age of the really cute guy, and James Woods is a really scary guy, as he shows in his portrayal of lawyer Eddie Dodd in True Believer. At the start of the film he sticks his face into a jury box and yells.
