The management says that since the recent institution of a dress code ("no jeans, no T-shirts, no work clothes, no sneakers, no work boots, no...."), Mad Hatter crowds have been a great deal more manageable than in the past.

To provide raw materials for Vivisectionist Moreau (played by Burt Lancaster), the film makers imported a small-scale Noah's ark of creatures. So far, actors and animals are getting along famously. In fact, whenever the cast takes time out for body surfing, they...
