...crawling into bed with the President (metaphorically, of course), and with being reluctant to get out as long as their interests are being served. In response to the claim that feminists have been hypocritical for continuing to support Clinton through these scandal-ridden months, the founder of Ms. magazine, Gloria Steinem, wrote an op-ed in the New York Times (March 22) called "Feminists and the Clinton Question." In it, she defended herself and the rest of the feminist movement...

...Poor Gloria Stuart. As one of the few interesting things about Titanic, she's in the underdog position. Kim Basinger is all set up to take home the consolation prize for L.A. Confidential. And if Basinger doesn't win, then the one to look out for is not Stuart but Minnie Driver as the much put-upon love interest in Good Will Hunting...
