Earth Girls is a movie that takes its cues from sources as disparate as The Wizard of Oz and Chantal Akerman's avant-garde French musical The '80s. But everything blends neatly in the witty, zippy script; everybody has a good time. Davis, a living windup doll, plays Everygal to Goldblum as he exercises his ingratiating leer. Carrey (a randy mime) and Wayans (with his turbo terpsichore) give unearthly pleasure. So does Earth Girls, the tastiest thing to come out of a space program since Tang...

...Kelly, born and raised in Vicksburg, Miss., being an American black in Paris -- and reveling in it -- is a cachet that opens doors. His logo is a grinning golliwog. On promotion tours he startles fans by handing out 3-in. plastic black doll pins as mementos. His first Louvre show, a spoof on the Mona Lisa, included such numbers as "Jungle Lisa loves Tarzan" (decollete leopard-print gowns) and "Moona Lisa" (Plexiglas-bubble headgear and silver- star-studded dresses).
