Better yet, Prom Queen of the Indies. Her crisp, dark beauty radiates the easy breeding of old-Hollywood royalty. Her wide, playful mouth suggests the young Katharine Hepburn; its I-know-I've-got-it look can be read as poise or derision. Waif-thin, Posey must have a Slinky for a spine; her walk is a loosey-goosey dance, as if house music were playing nonstop in her head. The aura is of a Park Avenue deb who gets her kicks downtown...

...been kicking around films for a decade. But those who have seen Thornton as Karl Childers in Sling Blade can't get that face out of their bad dreams. The skin is celibate smooth, the eyes clamped shut to keep the demons out, or in. And when the pursed mouth opens, it speaks, in a barrelly bass, of dreadful sins and Old Testament vengeance. Karl is a slow-witted killer--he murdered his mother and her lover when he was 12--with the visage of a fallen angel in private, permanent pain...

...movie High School High. Then, a few weeks ago, Massenburg booked Badu for a four-night stand at the Soul Cafe, a chic new Manhattan soul-food restaurant co-owned by Malik Yoba, star of Fox's hip police drama, New York Undercover.

...Gentry's nephew Dan Westfall, a theater performer, inherited the pair and built a facility on his property to house them. The scene-stealing siblings were in more than 15 Tarzan movies, and as a specialty, Westfall says, "Jiggs would always grin with his upper lip above his mouth.'' In retirement, Jiggs has become an artist--a simian Grandpa Moses--and sales of his paintings are to fund the Cheeta Project, a non-profit foundation that will aid other chimps and keep Jiggs on his daily diet of fruit, Purina Monkey Chow and the occasional Oreo as a treat. Tarzan...

...WATCHED THE MOVIE WITH AN ALMOST FRESH eye. I am less forgiving of low quality on the big screen than on television, where I am so used to seeing "Star Wars." In a movie theater, some glaring errors do stand out. Bad dialogue abounds, particularly from the whiny mouth of Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill). Also, the film grows sluggish at times; I didn't remember it taking this long for Luke, Obi-Wan, and the droids to leave Tatooine. The special effects (those from the original version) range from the sublime to the ridiculous. The final scene in which...
