...students is a decent kid: our hero, Kamiyama (dishy Takamasa Suga). In the first reel, he writes a letter home: "Oh, mom I?m a bit confused. Everyone looks like a yakuza." That?s not quite fair to the rain-gutter coalition on view at CHS. There?s gorilla sitting at one classroom desk, and a prancing tough guy called the Queen (Freddie Mercury with Toshiro Mifune?s menace), and a cigarette-puffing robot in a pink shirt. The entire group sends up fumes like an Iraqi oil factory, and when Kamiyama presses them to renounce smoking, they protest...

...tough to pick between TV and print journalism? I've been addicted to TV since I emerged from the womb. I recently found a schedule I made for myself in fourth grade, which was all blocked out based on the TV schedule. When I got home, it was Magilla Gorilla, then The Andy Griffith Show. I think I allotted 15 minutes for dinner, and homework was done in front of the television. News was always on the schedule as well.

...star was born: an anti-Garbo who viewed life and love as a series of awful amusements. In their seven films together--of which a terrific trio (Morocco, Blonde Venus and The Devil Is a Woman) are included here--Sternberg swathed Dietrich's wry sexuality in silk, feathers, a gorilla suit and his camera's soft-focus devotion. As his films got more deliriously abstract, she got restless, and the two parted in 1935. Their legacy is these films: a uniquely frilly and profound record of an artist's obsession with his model...

...giant gorilla King Kong was never able to consumate his affection for his beloved Ann Darrow because it is not biologically feasible, but things might have turned out differently if he had been a chimpanzee. After early human and chimpanzee ancestors branched off from a common ancestor, they may have mated to create a hybrid species, according to a new study by researchers at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard published in the journal Nature last week. The study also found that the divergence between humans and chimps occurred nearly a million years later than previously estimated...
