...admit it! I'm a practicing vegetarian. By the age of two, I was exceptionally adept at avoiding the meat my parents continually poked in my direction. Receiving protein in the form of mangled flesh and sizzled blood vessels has never been my idea of nutrition. As to the argument of "faunaism," I have yet to dissect a plant and discover a brain...

...battles with booze and men and show-biz tycoons, but somehow always manages to get out onstage and give a hell of a show. She has only two temperaments, childlike vulnerability and childish tempestuousness. The howler-ridden script makes little effort to tie these bromides to a plot or flesh them out with psychological insights. We are asked to believe that Rose's problems all stem from a fateful night when she let the entire high school football team have its way with...
