...chart-topping "Tennessee Plowboy" whose early career was managed by Elvis' Svengali, Col. Tom Parker; to Jerry Reed, 71, the Nashville session guitarist with the foolin'-around grin, who became a country star with When You're Hot, You're Hot, and played Burt Reynolds' rowdy pal in Gator and Smokey and the Bandit; and to Larry Levine, indispensible audio engineer for Phil Spector's Wall of Sound epics and the Beach Boys' Pet Sounds LP.

...Queer Duck, though also California-made, couldn't be farther from Ratatouille. No family film, this; it's a bathhouse vaudeville of nonstop gay gags and homoneurotic songs. The movie sends its main character, Adam Seymour Duckstein, away from his menagerie of friends and lovers (Openly Gator, Bi-Polar Bear, Oscar Wildcat) to be deprogrammed by a preacher. After a dose of an ungaying potion, Queer Duck pronounces himself in love with Cameron Diaz and Camryn Manheim. Liza shows...
