...could be an upscale moviegoer's idea of the ultimate great date. What middle-aged woman would mind being romanced by gorgeous James Spader? His face is a bouquet of sensitive sensuality; he proved he was a good listener as the impotent confessor in sex, lies, and videotape.

BLACK AND BLUE. Tony winner Ruth Brown seemed irreplaceable as the comic heft of this gorgeous Broadway review, but LaVern Baker (also heard on the Dick Tracy score) gets the same laughs and is, if anything, torchier.
