...beginning, there was EGG--for Ethnicity, Geography and Gender, the three factors used by Clinton to select nominees. Those characteristics still count, but sheer desperation to avoid any hint of S--for Scandal--has nearly choked the process to a halt. Burned by an outspoken Joycelyn Elders and a bumbling Henry Foster, Clinton has yet to name a Surgeon General. The Administration is dawdling even on routine appointments such as the promotion of David Lipton from Treasury Assistant Secretary to Undersecretary...
...first few scenes, the lighting added the only hint of color, ranging from red to hot pink, illuminating faces and white shirts. In later scenes, the little circles of light emanating from a disco ball created an image of craziness and mirrored the bouncing notes of the music. On the floor were more circles of light that the dancers moved through and around, resembling the 'sea of holes' in the Beatles' Yellow Submarine video...
...talk publicity had neglected to mention that a free message accompanied the free speech: the message of the Christian gospel. I distinctly heard "Jesus" being said aloud, even though no hint of this was given on the posters ahead of time. I have no objection to the presence of religion on this predominantly secular campus.

...star-satyr features surely helped land him the Morrison role, as well as those cartoon ghosts of the King of Rock 'n' Roll in Top Secret! and True Romance. Yet the look stops just short of drop-dead handsome. Its steely seriousness--all that grit and drive with no hint of easy humor--suggests less Elvis Presley than Elvis Stojko. If Kilmer is to execute the actor's equivalent of a quadruple toe loop, it won't be from movie-star grace but from a triumph of the will...
