...times, Hope and Glory tries to be an artsy film, but Boorman should have skipped the ridiculously Freudian dream sequences as well as the numerous subplots which end up being trite. Nor does Boorman's use of newsreel clips and radio speeches give any flavor of the era, partly because the director generally shows us what we've seen before in other movies...

Given the good intentions of microbrewers, one might expect all of their products to be delicious. But a tasting of 13 varieties purchased in the New York City area proved this is not quite the case. Among the most disappointing -- because they lacked flavor or because of unpleasantly sharp and metallic aftertastes -- were Manhattan Brewing Co.'s bottled Gold lager and its draught Oktoberfest and Amber beers.

This unique feel stems from its Asian perspective on men and women, which is distinct from the Western perspective. Though Gun is set up to be a typical, macho western cowboy hero, he is no Pygmalion. The window Tampopo is neither a statue-like work of art nor an Adam's rib. She is closer to the archetypal woman warrior, strong and in control...
