ANYWAYS, th' family consists of Weston (Donal Logue), Wesley (Daniel O'Keefe), mother Ella (Holly Cate) n' daughter Emma (Ellen Bledsoe). Weston is the drunken, violent father whose debts n' poor judgment are th' reason th' family is up shit creek t' begin with. Wesley is an arrogant chip off th' ol' blockhead, another one of those Shepard man-children who wears flannel shirts n' still has strings of model airplanes hangin' from th' ceiling in his room...
...American Dream seems especially dated. It's the story of what is supposed to be a parody of an ideal American couple, circa 1960. Mommy (Holly Cate) spends her days shopping or meeting with her women's auxilliary club, while Daddy (Donal Logue) spends his reading the paper in his easy chair. Mommy wears a bright pink party dress, the kind that domestic ex-prom queens like June Cleaver and Donna Reed wore on TV sitcoms in the 1950s and early 1960s. In fact, TV-sitcom theme songs play in the background to drive home the point of Mommy...
...Donal Logue '88 explains his roommate Tarver's modesty in terms of his local--as opposed to global--outlook.

...prisoner was a victim of a "smear campaign" and trial tactics "that never should have been permitted." With those strong words, a Navy appeals court last week overturned the conviction of Commander Donal Billig, Bethesda Naval Hospital's chief heart surgeon, who was court-martialed in 1986 on charges of involuntary manslaughter and negligent homicide...
...party, a tenor sings an old air, The Lass of Aughrim. This puts Gretta Conroy (Anjelica Huston) in a pensive mood: a delicate young man she once loved, and who hastened his death by courting her, used to sing it. In their hotel room, Gretta tells her husband Gabriel (Donal McCann) about this lost love, arousing an unworthy jealousy. She falls asleep, and he stares out the window, as the snow -- symbol of the universe's indifference to petty social preoccupations and petty emotions too -- falls "upon all the living and the dead." Nature, playing no favorites, blankets them...
