...Xplora 1: Peter Gabriel's Secret World. First you put the singer's face together, which means choosing from a screenful of different mouths, noses, eyes and ears. "You'll know when you've got it," says Mr. Computer Potato Head while you give him a facial. This achieved, you must decide what to do next: Watch one of his music videos? Thumb through his old baby pictures? Choose various cuts by musicians from around the world and mix them together into your own jam session? Or "go backstage"; that requires a pass, which you earn while maneuvering through...
...Rackstraw sings in an elegant, well-projected voice with effortless transitions to higher registers. Even his speech seems melodious, as if half-sung. With arms flailing wildly about him, he gives his part some wonderfully bombastic melodrama. Jill Weitzner shines as Little Buttercup. She communicates complex thoughts with her facial expressions, and has a crystalline, resonant voice to match. Weitzner's movements capitalize almost instinctively on her physique (in the play, she is given enough weight to take down a truck). We have no doubt that she is ideally suited to this type of physical humor...
...melodious tones of Kevin Kline). Unfortunately, the movie's salvation is also its biggest problem.

The whole movie looks like a well-done stage version on film, and in fact, it is. It was filmed on the stage of the Performing Arts Center at SUNY Purchase, with a cast...
Morph 2.0 enabled TIME to pinpoint key facial features on the photos of the 14 people of various racial and ethnic backgrounds chosen for the chart. Electronic dots defined head size, skin color, hair color and texture, eyebrows, the contours of the lips, nose and eyes, even laugh lines around the mouth. The eyes in particular required many key points to make them as detailed as possible; otherwise the results would be very erratic. Similarly, miscalculating the dimensions of an upper lip only slightly, for example, could badly skew the resulting face...
...obeying, God's will. He would practice sermons aloud in old sheds or in a canoe in the middle of a lake. He ate a quarter- pound of butter a day to try to spread some bulk across his lanky frame, and he worked on his gestures and facial expressions as he traveled to tiny churches or declaimed outside saloons frequented by drunkards and prostitutes, sharing the Gospel...
