...GOOD CUT Women with circumcised sex partners may be less likely to develop cervical cancer than women whose partners have an intact foreskin. The difference, according to the study, was greatest among women whose mates had six or more previous partners. Women having sex with such "high risk" uncircumcised men were more than twice as likely to get cervical cancer...

...next dropping him to a gloomy fate below. Soon the sky is filled with a swarm of evil balloons carrying little children. This might not quite appeal to your sense of humor, but the films are short enough, ranging from the one-minute Forrest Dump and Foreskin Gump to the longest piece, the six-minute Swing Sluts, that you don't need a particularly long attention span. This is a great show to see after a full day of exercising your Harvard intellectual abilities. Give it a rest...

An ex-cop grandma wages war on her grandson's kidnappers! A lost relic with aphrodisiacal powers--Jesus' foreskin--turns up in Manhattan! "Pringles financed my movie," a commercial actor turned documentarian told me. The budget for one "romantic drama" came from the insurance settlement the writer-director received after he was injured in an auto accident. You had to admire the sheer nerve on display. And who knows? Maybe...

...that this "responsibility" demands a complete fidelity to the source novel. Holland's characteristic quirks and odd-ball sense of humor--in Europa Europa, she made a character's foreskin a consistent source of laughs--resist any firm allegiance to an inherited script.
