What about Kate Millett? Angela Davis? Jane Fonda? Crystal Lee Sutton...
...history major at Smith were how to handle a snub-nosed .38 and the proper way to kick nasty men in the ribs. Neither did she require such talents as the sybaritic Charlie perfume girl. But both are in her curriculum now that Hack, 31, has replaced Kate Jackson in the trio of Charlie's Angels alongside Veterans Cheryl Ladd and Jaclyn Smith. Artfully imitating her own earlier life, Hack will play a Seven Sisters seraph named Tiffany Welles. As such, she has to bite the Angel dust from time to time. In one early scene, for instance, Hack...
Whatever the etymology, Ariel is an androgynous creature, and over the years the part has been played by boys and girls, men and women. Among the female Ariels one might cite Kitty Clive in the 18th century, Maria Foote, Priscilla Horton and Kate Terry in the 19th, and Fania Marinoff, Agnes Carter, Rachel Kempson, Elsa Lanchester and Margaret Leighton in our own.

In the film's early scenes, she plays the part as a liberated lady, turn-of-the-century variety. Once Dracula has begun to work his will on her, she becomes a resourceful woman...
...shopworn jokes, executed with no discernible flair. The writers have done little more than round up the usual array of stereotyped characters: a horny fat boy, a bespectacled nerd, a conceited stud, busty girls and so on. Once these kids and the head counselors (Murray for the boys and Kate Lynch for the girls) are introduced, the film meanders aimlessly. Half the time, Meatballs forgets to exploit the gags that it so laboriously sets up. No sooner do we learn, for instance, that Camp Northstar is in the throes of a power blackout or a parents' day than...
