...Which strand of gossip is true? The townspeople want to know - or do they? As long as the matter is in doubt, they can keep nattering and give their shallow lives the semblance of drama. They want to believe the husband, because he speaks with such fiery protectiveness. They want to believe Signora Frola, because she was the first to speak, and because she clucks with such matronly concern over her daughter and her son-in-law, and because Joan Plowright invests her with such easy dignity. In fact, there are no facts, just testimony. As Laudisi, the one skeptic...
...playgoer's heart. At the end - I've decided you're not going to London just because I recommend it, and if you are you can skip this paragraph - the mystery woman, whose name is either Lina or Julia (or neither), materializes, embracing her mother fervently, kissing her husband passionately. Her gestures take no sides in the dispute; she seems equally indulgent of the contradictory beliefs held by these two people who obsessively, perhaps quite madly, love...
When most people look at VERNE TROYER, they see Mini-Me, the tiny evil clone from the Austin Powers films. When GENEVIEVE GALLEN looks at him, she sees 32 smoldering inches of future husband. At 6 ft. 2 in., Gallen might seem an unlikely match for Troyer, 34, but he and the yoga instructor, 29, have been dating for a year and will marry in November. (As Austin Powers might say, the mechanics of it are just mind boggling.) If anyone's looking for a wedding present, we suggest a stepladder...
...royalty, then there's a kind of Lioness in Winter drama to Real Roseanne. Big celebs--your Puffys, your Madonnas--inhabit a blissful zone in which their ids are perfectly in synch with pop culture's superego. Satisfying their whims (I'm going to make my new husband executive producer of my sitcom!) seems to be not self-indulgent but good business sense. When they slip out of that zone (I'm going to have my blue-collar sitcom character win the lottery!), the damage can be irreparable. That Barr's comeback plan involves slinging salsa on basic cable only...
Helene Veret and her architect husband, Jean-Louis, have long known the perils of fire. After a 1970 blaze swept through their four hectares near the village of Plan-de-la-Tour, 20 km north of the Gulf of St. Tropez, Jean-Louis had his house hewn out of a rock cliffside so fire would pass over it. But after the fires of the past 10 days, that troglodyte house is all that is left of the Vérets' summer retreat. Flames laid waste to everything, leaving only the skeletons of a few cork oaks and the aluminum kitchen...
