Then comes the Day After. You don't just go to class. You stagger in, using Jack Nicholson's patented "Cuckoo Nest" post-electroshock walk. Your section leader takes on the sinister role of Nurse Ratched as you wink, smile and wallow in your rebellious glamour. Better than thumbing your nose at the school principal, blazing through a two week assignment in one night completely destroys your section leader's sense of authority...
Bouncing back to the winner's circle at a wonderful canter, Shoemaker misted like an old golfer (Shoe is a 12 handicap). "Old Jack Nicklaus did it," he said, "and I did it too. I thought that I might have one more chance to win the Derby. When Charlie showed me this big juicy colt last year, he told me, 'Here's one I'm going to save for you.

The three Tonight show hosts plus Lester (who had a pre-Tonight variety show called Broadway Open House in 1950-51) had never gathered before. "We started the most imitated show in television, the talk format," boasted a misty-eyed Paar (1957-62). Allen...
...immensely rich and complicated; the film begins with a 168-word crawling preface. Yet it is as simple as a bedtime tale, and may have the same effect: putting the kiddies right to sleep. Lili (Mia Sara) is a fairyland princess, all coquettish glances and sweet mischief. Her beau, Jack o' the Green (Tom Cruise), is a swain of the woodland working class. When Lili touches one of the magic white unicorns--can't have your bucolic fantasy without some unicorns--the Lord of Darkness (Tim Curry) begins to work his evil alchemy. And the film, which has been reclining...
