Kaelin has, in fact, proved to be one of the minor surprises this time around. The actor-houseguest was one of Clark's biggest problems. She spent long, frustrating hours in her office and in court trying to coax coherent testimony from the loosey-goosey Kaelin. Then last week a spiffed-up, more verb-friendly Kaelin testified that Simpson was brooding, and cursing, the day before the murders over his former wife's sexual escapades, referring to an incident in which he witnessed Nicole having sex with a boyfriend, Keith Zlomsowitch. And Kaelin also mentioned last week that the three...
...Albert, made Menace II Society, a violent melodrama whose film-school flash won kudos. Last year's top novice was Kevin Smith, with his clever, scratchy comedy Clerks. Now these twentysomething phenoms are flouting the sophomore slump--the Hugheses with the epic-size Dead Presidents, Smith with the loosey-goosey comedy Mallrats. Joining them in the ambition to reach a wider audience is gay cult fave Gregg Araki, who gives his new tragi-comedy, The Doom Generation, the cunning subtitle "a heterosexual movie." The director of the homo-erratic dramas The Living End and Totally F***ed Up is itching...
Clueless has another ancestor in Heathers, the most influential unseen film of the past 10 years. Heathers made the mistake of treating the peer success of blond teenage girls satirically. Amy Heckerling, the writer-director of Clueless, is cannier than that.

The toughest intellectual challenge for Cher and her friends may be deciphering the Thomas Guide map of Los Angeles streets, but they have...
...make the appalling appealing. As the gonzo journalist in Where the Buffalo Roam, the blissed-out war veteran in The Razor's Edge, the sadistic TV executive in Scrooged or the crazed hypochondriacs in Little Shop of Horrors and What About Bob?, Murray always imparted a blithe, loosey-goosey air of getting through life on his terms, in his own high style. He has the natural actor's charm of making manners matter. He carries Groundhog Day with his uniquely frittery nonchalance and makes the movie a comic time warp anyone should be happy to get stuck...
...lost more than $19 billion. "I disagree strongly with the notion that the problem in the banking industry resembles the early stage of the S&L debacle," says Thomas McCandless, who follows the industry for Goldman, Sachs. "The regulatory environment has been much more rigorous than the loosey-goosey kind of overview that occurred in the S&L industry...
