Voice mail, too, is keeping up with the hectic pace of this crucial week. A phone number for Ross Perot's campaign greets callers with "Hello, and thank you for calling United We Stand America. Ross Perot's next TV spot is Monday, October 26, on ABC..." The recording then offers, for those with a touch-tone phone, various Perot options. Newsletter? Names of district coordinators?

Massive Deco-style buildings -- a Rockefeller Center gone bats -- stretch skyward to put heroes and villains in ironic perspective. "The movie is very vertical," says Welch, who also designed Beetlejuice and Edward Scissorhands. "It goes from the penguin in the sewers to a flying rodent...
...want to know what I do? Treat everybody equal. You know what I do with the Blacks? Look them in the eye when I pass them in the hall, say 'hello,' make them feel part of the system...
