...Wives -- the question of whether it contains clues to Allen's dumping Mia Farrow in favor of her 21-year-old adopted daughter, Soon-Yi Previn Farrow -- this is irrelevant, surely, to the noble trade of movie criticism. You want us to ponder weightier issues, like the piquant mise-en-scene in the oeuvre of a major auteur. Perhaps the entire review should be in French...

...text, the first since 1974, contains nearly 700 recipes for everything from andouille sausage to zingara sauce, sometimes in single portions but more often in sufficient quantity to feed a hungry mob of 20. The emphasis of the lavishly illustrated 869-page manual, however, is on correct technique and mise en place -- that is, preparation -- elements that the Culinary was instrumental in establishing as essential to the training of professional chefs...

...first viewing, Landis films like Animal House and Trading Places--shaggy, canny, missing broad targets and then dancing on pinheads--seem not nearly as good as they should be. Second time around, they look better than they have any right to. No master of mise-en-scene, no Mr. Meticulous, Landis propels his pictures on attitude. If you buy the mood, you buy the movie. Into the Night is irresistible because Landis' have-fun-with-it mood allows for crazy- acute characterizations that spin the spectator off balance and give him a giggle in the process.

Heymann, 38, a former university lecturer and book reviewer, is unrepentant. Says he: "I think I did a credible job. I wanted to give a 'mise en scène,' and it catches the flavor of her whole life." Trouble is, Heymann's "flavor" often seems to leave a bad taste. His 1976 book Ezra Pound: The Last Rower contained what Heymann said was an original interview with the poet. Critic Hugh Kenner, however, found a remarkably similar one in an obscure Italian journal printed years before. Scholars have charged that Heymann's 1980 volume...
