After Lane's first tryst with her lover, the camera sits quietly on her, displaying her quicksilver emotions: a pang of guilt, a flicker of pleasure, finally tears and hysterical laughter. Lane downplays this acting feat. "I was tired, and that's how I freak out," she says. "Now I know what I look like when I do it." Gere, however, is impressed.

At times during their vigorous studying they could work up quite an appetite. These studious individuals could then repair to the top floor for snacks and conversation. All that remains today are two uninspired soda machines (what does a man have...
