...equally well-studied. Streep could have let herself fall into the role she played in Manhattan--the spiteful, surly bitch. But her Joanna is three-dimensional, the unquestioning young mother, the frustrated wife, the desperately independent career woman. She evokes sympathy where others would be satisfied with hatred. Justin Henry's Billy is not just another in the string of Tatum O'Neal-styled brats. The kid is no actor and the natural touches he adds--the smirk over a pint of chocolate chip ice cream, amusement at watching his father ruin the french toast--are indispensible to the realistic...
...success of Columbia's Kramer vs. Kramer (TIME, Dec. 3). It is a smash despite the fact that unlike the other holiday hits, it deals with serious problems: divorce and a bitter custody fight.

Dak., and found youngsters, including his kindergarten-age son Justin, giving out with O Come All Ye Faithful and Silent Night. Then a teacher quizzed them on the religious theme. "They had just gone overboard," Florey recalls. The result is the first federal court test of whether performance of religious Christmas music, a perennial issue in many cities, should be banished from public schools on grounds of church-state separation...
...approved by the high courts, Thompson's policy would further secularize American life. In Sioux Falls this Christmas, pending the forthcoming federal ruling from St. Louis, youngsters in some assemblies will be singing Christmas music as usual, perhaps for the last time. But for Justin Florey and his classmates it will be Suzy Snowflake and Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town...
