...talk about that--not yet. Let's think instead about brutal Stanley Kowalski in A Streetcar Named Desire, about yearning Terry Malloy in On the Waterfront, about the rough voice and silky menace of The Godfather and the noble and ignoble ruin of Brando's Paul in Last Tango in Paris.

Although Team Thorpe lodged appeals, they were dismissed. When Grant Hackett and Craig Stevens finished one-two in the evening final to qualify for a start in Athens, Thorpe was a spectator. "You're talking about one of the greatest athletes in history - and this is his pet event," said a subdued Hackett. "(Thorpe) must be just hurting."
