...Salvatore Cucinotta, a Philadelphia lawyer who describes his specialty as "personal injury work-not basic rear-enders, but serious stuff, like burns and sexual assault cases." His ticket to Washington: U.S. vs. Morrison, in which Cucinotta urged the court to approve dismissal of drug charges against his client, Hazel Morrison, on the ground that federal narcotics agents had interfered with her right to counsel. Cucinotta argued the case in December, and it was decided last week. TIME Correspondent Evan Thomas followed the attorney's judicial odyssey to the end. His report...
...announced as a "post-punk" tale, with stereo Dolby treatment, and followed by a blow-out reception, dubbed "event of the year" by some hyperbolic press bulletins. The film details the rise and fall of a London band (bearing many resemblances to X-Ray Spex), with street-found star Hazel O'Connor as leader of the idealistic group. She self-promotes on subways, takes on gigs at skinhead pubs and political rallies, and ends up with record contract and sold-out laser light shows. Phil Daniels, star of last year's Quad-rophenia, plays the little manager who gets squeezed...
...delegates. Last week's group of 400 encouraged him more than he did them. "We want Jimmy! We want Jimmy!" they shouted as Carter and Rosalynn, smiling broadly, entered the East Room.

That bird of rare plumage, the American male, is strutting and primping. In the morning, after shaving, more and more men are reaching for a $20 tube of RNA Bio-Complex Moisture Cream instead of the Old Spice or witch hazel. Some pinstripe business executives are now canceling their three-martini lunches and scurrying across town to meet their wives at the skin-care salon for his-and-her noontime facials. For macho males, from Wall Street bankers to Los Angeles construction workers, a smooth, clear complexion has become as prized and pursued as a 32-inch waist...
...Ratso Rizzo for Ted Kramer. Even in "B" films like American Gigolo, the misfit hero is not glorified for his sins at the finale but redeemed, primped for "normal" society. But Wise Blood is not a Hollywood film, nor is it about normal society. In Huston's hands, Hazel Motes becomes not a hero or an anti-hero but a non-hero, one of us living out the internal battle between Jesus and Satan...
