...intervening years. He mixes traditional superhero tropes like broad shoulders and rippling muscles with absurd caricature elements like giant feet and hands. Lex Luthor looks like a Mr. Potato-Head who wears nothing but boxer shorts and hi-top Converse sneakers. Miller shares top billing with the colorist, Lynn Varley, who mixes digitized effects with traditional coloring in clever ways. One scene has Superman standing amid the ruble of Metropolis, where even the colors have broken down into mottled, streaky blotches...
Human frailty was the cause of the devastating Colorado forest fires, according to your report [NATION, July 1]. How utterly pathetic! U.S. Forest Service employee Terry Lynn Barton caused a horrific tragedy that displaced more than 8,000 people, destroyed thousands of acres and took the lives of fire fighters. But your story sympathetically portrayed Barton as the survivor of a terrible life.

As the first-response forestry fire fighter, she radioed for help and began containment efforts. But the prosecutor alleges that she wanted the fire...

The story of the films is one of aristocratic Fred elevating shopgirl Ginger to his level, and of Ginger bringing Fred down to hers; each brings out the best in the other. Croce says of the team: "They weren't Alfred [Lunt] and Lynn [Fontanne] and they weren't Noel [Coward] and Gertie [Lawrence]; they were the two most divinely usual people in the history of movies." If that's the case, then Ginger is at the soul of the movie. She was divinely usual. He was, usually, divine...
