Molly (Moore) and Sam (Patrick Swayze) are your typical Manhattan duo. They are smart, caring and gorgeous; they live in a fabulous loft. When they make love, to Bobby Hatfield's orgasmic rendition of Unchained Melody, the sex is so beautiful you could die from it. Too soon, Sam does die -- he is murdered -- in a plot twist that anyone can unravel in an eyewink. Now stranded between heaven and earth, he must use the gifts of a sassy psychic (Whoopi Goldberg) to alert Molly of threats to her life -- and, while he has her attention, to make mad pash...
...enthusiasm for that work is infectious. In person, she is shy yet affable, serious but quick to smile, and full of energy; she doesn't so much walk as dart. Her private life, centered on a Bowery loft with the sculptor Peter Boynton and a cat named Sam, is something she guards fiercely.

Mapplethorpe, pale, coughing and looking emaciated, moved about in obvious pain as he worked. "It was a poignant experience to have my picture taken by a man dying of a disease that I've spent so much time trying to educate the public about," recalls Koop...
Housed in a cramped Manhattan loft and operating with more conviction than cash (the budget is $10,000 a week -- minuscule compared with the money available to most network shows), South Africa Now presents a lively look at a tumultuous region. Twelve full- and part-time staffers and a host of volunteers put together programs of spot news, background reports and cultural features. The result is a show that is spunky and creative, though uneven in quality. Interviews sometimes drag on, and occasionally the picture and sound quality are poor...
