...broad concerns like "public spaces." The instinct to delegate responsibility to single students is good, but the broad arenas of past cabinet positions have left room for improvement. As a result, the new cabinet will be composed fundamentally of three directors--education, house life and college life. These areas mirror the student-faculty committees to which the council elects delegates.

The men--a working stiff grabbing furtive pleasure on the fly and an executive taking stupid risks (Jeffrey likes to tiptoe along balustrades high above the street)--reflect, in their class-differentiated ways, the contemporary male's desperate need for adventure.

...from an original script by Chris vander Stappen, has the scheme of a socially fretful TV movie. Yet at heart, Ma Vie en Rose is a delightful comedy, both in its buoyant dream sequences and in Ludo's vagrant, clumsy stabs at embryonic machismo. Staring at himself in the mirror, he shoots off an imaginary gun, just like the other kids, and--he's really trying--adjusts his crotch...
