...scarcely able to mouth his lines. ("In thole world, all I really care about is you.") And Heather Locklear, whose addition to the cast last year as bitchy Amanda is credited with turning the show around, doesn't have the evildoing pizazz of a Joan Collins or Larry Hagman. In a typical act of mischief, she pleads with Billy not to tell his fiance Alison about an affair he and Amanda have had.

The director whose pre-1990 oeuvre comprised just four features -- eight hours of public film -- will have more than matched that total this year. Two two-hour and three one-hour episodes of Twin Peaks. The rambunctious road movie Wild at Heart, winner of the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival and now in theatrical release.

A 50-minute video, Industrial Symphony No. 1, featuring a dwarf, prom teens, a floating topless lady, a skinned deer and ethereal warbler Julee Cruise singing...
