...Keitel's trail, Liotta as a good-bad cop--while he watches, listens, recedes into the wallpaper. Mining his own insecurity to mirror Freddy's, Stallone dominates these scenes with his poignant passivity. The sweet sadness in his eyes reveals something rare in modern films: how much pain and insult a decent man with zero self-esteem can endure. Of course, he and we know he's the hero who, at the end, will bust out of his emotional lethargy; the soft Rocky will become the battering Rambo. But for a star of Stallone's gaudy wattage, the attitude...

...both the bikes and the riders locked up, because "a little jail time" would teach these revolutionaries a lesson. But, Mr. Mayor, aren't they just following San Francisco's great tradition of protest? Civil rights, antiwar, gay rights?

...varied for a single category, and the mediagenic notion of some sort of "female sound" could turn into a kind of velvet prison. Women, of course, have been major players in music throughout the rock era, so the idea that gals with guitars is something new is an insult to such folk-pop pioneers as Odetta and Joan Baez. The number of women at the top of the charts of late, however, and the impressive number of those who are playing Lilith is indeed something fresh and invigorating. "Of all the tours that you do during the summer," says Fiona...

...Jabal Abu Ghneim. Just how long would this diplomatic pause last? Five days. Even God needed six days to create the earth. "It seemed like a silly joke," says an American official, "only it was true." Arafat was outraged and, according to his colleagues, saw the offer as an insult. Whether or not Netanyahu calculated it to be one, it was a perfect demonstration of the way things are going in the so-called Middle East peace process...
