...Continues, with David Carradine back as a mystic martial artist, and Time Trax, about a 22nd century cop who goes time-traveling in search of criminals who have escaped to the 20th century. They join such other hours as Highlander (the adventures of a centuries-old Scottish "immortal"), Renegade (Lorenzo Lamas as a motorcycle-riding ex-cop) and Street Justice (a sort of inner-city A Team). On the drawing boards for next fall: an updated Bonanza and Acapulco H.E.A.T., with Catherine Oxenberg as head of an antiterrorist squad...

...CENTER OF LORENZO'S OIL LIES A desperately sick child. But in director George Miller's tedious film, he is also, during much of the time, lost. For this true story of Augusto and Michaela Odone (Nick Nolte and Susan Sarandon) focuses on their frantic efforts to find a cure for their boy's rare disease (adrenoleukodystrophy).

...encounter difficult philosophical problems--"Is freedom chaos?"--they call on the "audience" for help. To their rescue comes Doris Levine, a blonde, boppy philosophy student from Wellesley, played with convincing ditziness by Isabelle Hurtubise. In the course of the action other fatuous students are called to the stage: Lorenzo Miller (Arzhang Kamarei), the pompous playwright, Trichinosis (Joel Pulliam), another Greek who invents the ridiculous deus ex machina to save the play and a regal but spacy Queen (Elizabeth Price) who strolls in with a roast beef sandwich. Woody Allen himself even phones in a few times to give advice...
