...have to realize that these people are really his friends. If Doonan makes much of himself, it is only because everyone else in the world has and is qualified by the fact that he is also ever-ready to be self-critical. Today, after 25 years, millions of fashion windows, messy windows, live windows and even windows with live-stock and transvestites, he wonders at his fortune in being gainfully employed at all, he declines the title of an artiste, and he is constantly more delighted than deprecating.

In traditional Star Trek fashion, though, the movie is about more than a battle between "good" and "bad" guys.

...stepmom in question is Julia Roberts, a career-distracted fashion photographer. The baggage her boyfriend (Ed Harris) totes includes bratty kids and an ex-wife (Susan Sarandon) who resents her rival's youth and glamorous career. The ex-wife is a near saintly mother, though, requiring only a bravely endured onslaught of cancer to complete canonization. Her ailment also brings the warring women together in mutual admiration, shuts the kids up and gets everyone gathered, trembling chins up, around the tree for their first and last Christmas as an inspiringly functional extended family. Under Chris Columbus' direction, they make...

Should you still find yourself giftless for that special someone who is passionate about dress, this beautifully illustrated 510-page style encyclopedia could be your salvation. Surveying the past 150 years of fashion history, the book goes beyond what might be expected of such a compilation, offering up entries not only on celebrated designers from Paul Poiret to Helmut Lang but also on tastemakers generally less well known--for example, textile creator Zika Ascher, cobbler Pietro Yantorny and early 20th century cosmetics manufacturer Alexandre Napoleon Bourjoi. Another plus: at $39.95, The Fashion Book is about one-sixth the price...
