...Belushi was that guy. Farley grew up on Belushi, remembers what bar he was in when he heard Belushi died (his first thought, he says, was that he wanted to play him in the movie), walked around the SNL hallways with one eyebrow taped up on his forehead (Belushi's quizzical pirate). On stage, Farley got started doing what were essentially Belushi impressions (until sometime around Matt Foley, motivational speaker, when he finally became Chris Farley, and got into movies...
...which is a big if. Hersh's book amplifies some of the most radioactive stories of the Kennedy era. It also promises to nail down more than it does.

She caused sensations by wearing a party dress or by gaining a kilo of weight. She made headlines with every wave of her hand, every twitch of her eyebrow. This is why her death--her metamorphosis into hard news--feels so savage. Death has enshrined her and frozen her in time. It has also fulfilled her own prophecy. She did have a gift for love: look at the people, in the millions, weeping on the streets of London. Diana...
