...small role Macpherson is a mere cartoon character (her name in the film: Mickey Morse). But Bart the grizzly, who starred in 1989's The Bear, deserves a Best Supporting Animal award for his ferocious work. Baldwin is persuasive in his familiar persona, the cagey sleazebag. And as the polymath plutocrat, Hopkins manages to make erudition sexy; a library intelligence and a steely intellect make him Baldwin's ideal adversary. The Edge merits a modest cheer as an action film that celebrates not brute force but survival of the smartest...
Ever since I heard the "Rocky" rumor, I've been dying to meet Tommy Rawson. The story is probably apocryphal, but the gossip is that the 88-year-old Rawson, Harvard's boxing coach and resident sports legend, was the basis for Mickey, the character immortalized by Burgess Meredith in the 1976 Academy Award winning film...

It seems like there's only so much to be gained from talking about the past...
...cast member of the original Mouseketeers of Mickey Mouse Club TV fame, I take exception to your lumping together all the recent lawsuits against Disney and referring to us Mouseketeers as "turning nasty" [PEOPLE, Sept. 1]. It is truly unfortunate that former Mouseketeer Billie Jean Matay (or Billie Jean Beanblossom, as her fans and I knew her) was a victim of robbery in a Disneyland parking lot. This horrible incident was never taken lightly, and although the case was dismissed, I don't believe the judge had to resist the temptation "to call the case Goofy." Only time will tell...
That leaves an even shorter short list. The betting is on former Commerce Secretary and Trade Representative MICKEY KANTOR, who was disappointed when he didn't get the job in the first place. Also in the running are JOHN HILLEY, Clinton's point man on dealing with Capitol Hill, and National Security Adviser SANDY BERGER. But White House handicappers speculate that Hilley may have too many enemies in the White House and on the Hill, and Berger's chances suffer because he took over at the N.S.C. just a few months...
