...flames of violence, has not changed over time. Just last year, Sharpton supported and then spoke on the stage of a hate rally in Harlem featuring Khalid Muhammed, whose bigoted remarks about "faggots," Roman Catholics, their "cracker" Pope and "peckerwood Jesus" and the "hook-nosed, bagel-eating, lox-eating, perpetrating-a-fraud so-called Jew" were too much even for Louis Farrakhan's Nation of Islam, which fired him as spokesperson. The rally ended with--what else?--a riot...
...Roman Catholic Mass. A stepmother brought in some Mormon proselytizers. His aunt, with whom he lived for a time, had converted to the Nazarene Church ("What did I know from fanatical?" he asks). In high school his Jewish friends inducted him into the sacred rituals of seder, bagels and lox.

It is no help either that Ronald Bass neglected to write (or Mulroney was unable to find) a character in Michael. Why all this fuss over this lox, we keep wondering. Director P.J. Hogan (Muriel's Wedding) stages a couple of marvelously giddy musical numbers, and Rupert Everett is terrific as the voice of sweet homosexual reason in the midst of this heterosexual hubbub. He--and the songs--probably belong in a different, better movie. But they give...
