...Sunday afternoon when I met the young trio of actors who fill out the second generation in the cast of American Beauty. Certainly, I could have picked the three, um, American beauties out of a lineup--all striking examples of uncommon poise. Petite and chatty, Mena Suvari (teenage lust object Angela Hayes in the film) appeared with a surprisingly modest brunette dye job which only partially belied the model-quality good looks that garnered her roles in both "American" movies this summer, both this one and American Pie. With unshaven, not-quite-ratty stubble that gave him the look...
Mays is an articulate spokesman for a new generation of industrial artists who aim to bring us what we want rather than products that are prisoners of the engineering and manufacturing departments. "Cars have become appliances instead of something you lust after," complains Mays.

Bush "wants to make sure that the people on the outskirts of poverty are not left behind," Michael Boskin...
...impeachment, sex is war. How appropriate, then, that MTV should get the director of The Killing Fields to offer a take on young love and sex. Roland Joffe's Undressed (weeknights, 11 E.T.), premiering this week, ambitiously interweaves 23 story lines of sexual confusion, selfishness and experimentation--it's Lust, American Style. Shot almost entirely in interiors--the insides of vans, apartments, bunk beds--it has a stuffy, caged-heat vibe, sharing with Eyes the suggestion that if you leave two people alone in a room, they'll be tempted to start rutting like rabbits. Take Dave and Katie...
