...Fisherman, bestowing a paternal peck on Daughter Catalina, 25, when she visited the set in Rome. That little respite notwithstanding, Quinn is living his role with fierce dedication-so much so that shooting had to be stopped two weeks because of a huge swelling of Quinn's right eye that he is convinced was psychogenic. "It used to be called 'Monk's disease,' coming from the effort to measure up to a great task against the weakness of the flesh," Quinn said. "Playing a Pope is the epitome of everything an actor can do. I think...
Life at Cambridge is an eye-opening experience, wrote Britain's Prince Charles, 19, in a maiden essay for the undergraduate newspaper Varsity-particularly at 7 a.m., when the "head-splitting clang" of garbage cans is "accompanied by the jovial dustman's monotonous refrain O Come, All Ye Faithful." After reading that, the Cambridge Urban District Council promptly rerouted Dustman Frank Clarke so that he appeared under the prince's windows at 9 a.m. rather than 7.

Nothing Heroic. Where others have seen only romance, adventure and folksy humor, Fiedler's hawk eye spots paradox, irony and mordant wit. Hence Pocahontas is "our first celebrated traitor to her own race ... a model long in advance of Uncle Tom." Hannah Duston is not the heroic protector of white womanhood and the family but the great castrating mother of all men-a Mary Worth in linsey-woolsey. The tale of Rip Van Winkle is really about booze as a weapon against women. Only Natty Bumppo and Chingachgook make it through Fiedler's gauntlet without lumps. They constitute...
