...find true love and a reliable trust fund. The clothes, hair styles and decor of these films were alone worth the price of a ticket. And that says nothing about the attendant hysteria of their plots. These were stories for grown-ups, who do not go much to mainstream movies these days. The result is that these dramas wandered off into glamour-trash TV (remember Dallas?) and then into total disuse. Something like Bier's film (or the much darker Danish film, The Inheritance of a few years back) reminds us of what we're missing. It's not just...

Eight years later, it remains to be seen whether the problem has been fixed, or if there even ever was a problem. Recently, KeyChange established itself as the first co-ed a cappella group to have an active goal of celebrating all types of black music. Association of Black...
