...Nostradamus were alive today, his job would be safe, at least from the misguided futurists on Wall Street. Exhibit A is a gutsy little tome penned 10 years ago called A View from the Year 2000. As a device to forecast the '90s, Shearson Lehman Hutton looked back on a decade that hadn't yet happened. The first thing you notice in the report, though, isn't some way-out prediction--it's that the names Shearson and Hutton are about as familiar to investors today as were Dell and Cisco to analysts a decade ago--which...
...down trees by the acre, galumphing through the crops of irate farmers, stomping on hapless citizens. Zimbabwe alone has about 65,000 of the truck-size beasts, though its wild lands can comfortably support only half that many, and the other countries are similarly overendowed. "The elephant," says John Hutton, Zimbabwe project director of the British-based Africa Resources Trust, "was never endangered in this part of Africa...
...really well going in and auditioning for Ordinary People, and not getting it," KEVIN BACON says. "I didn't even get past the casting director."

Anyway, that's the belief of Isaac's grown children (Tony Goldwyn, Sarah Jessica Parker, Timothy Hutton), who wrest control of the house from their father. Soon after, Isaac lapses into a madness that estranges him from the world as fully as from his family...
Shocking? No. More a measure of the movie's originality. For, age difference aside, Hutton and Portman are perfectly matched ironists--''Romeo and Juliet, the dyslexic version," as she calls them--dealing with the largest irony of all, the fact that they dare not touch, let alone dream of fulfillment together. Their rue and wryness are characteristic of Scott Rosenberg's writerly script, the playing of their encounters typical of a fine acting ensemble and of Ted Demme's discreet yet forceful direction. Beautiful Girls is always in touch with reality but never drowned...
