This is Lopez's whitest movie yet--white gowns, white-tie, white-collar, white bread. And darned if she can't play perkily yuppyish. Her Mary is smart, nice and sexy; if boys dreamed of future brides and not of instant hookers, she would star in a million fervid fantasies.

Released shortly before 6 p.m., perfectly timed to be read by the network news anchors, the statement revved the Washington-New York gossip machine. By Friday, when Hillary met for a private lunch with Moynihan, and Clinton again signaled his support during a press conference with French President Jacques Chirac, political hacks were salivating at the prospect of a celebrity death...
