...about the process and the experience." The "trust and intimacy" created by "The Letter Writing Project" was, for Lee, as valuable as any lasting picture.

Five anarchists summed up the mood of many voters last week when they hung a banner over the side of Lenin's mausoleum on Red Square. AGAINST EVERYBODY, it read. For what it's worth, pundits are betting that the Communist Party and its allies, led by the leaden-tongued Gennadi Zyuganov, will once again emerge with the largest group in the new Duma, with around 20% to 25% of its 450 members.

The event, of which TIME was the presenting sponsor, raised money...
Beth's husband Pat (Treat Williams) and remaining son Vincent (Cory Buck at seven, Jonathan Jackson at 16) dare to pretend that life goes on. But Beth makes a career of her guilt and grief; she builds a mausoleum for her lost child and moves into it. She sleeps all day and leaves the tending of her infant daughter to the two males in the house. In a nice vignette, young Vincent comes home, sees that his sister is being ignored, picks up her rattles and puts them in the playpen, then walks through the foyer, knocking over a vase...
