...Decade" were at their peak. The movie's pivotal sequence, a New Year's party celebrating the arrival of 1980, climaxes when one tortured porn groupie executes his wandering wife before blowing his brains out at the stroke of midnight. During the 1980s, selfish gratification takes on a colder, nastier edge, and the consequences finally came home to roost. Boogie Nights sends its characters into a spiral of degeneration. As each character faces the ramifications of their depraved life, the porn industry turns to kink and violence in order to keep up with the changing times. Dirk, drugged...

Even in the generally more collegial Senate, a new lineup of Republican chairmen is setting traps on such things as defense spending and the global free-trade agreement. And everywhere the rhetoric is getting nastier. North Carolina Senator Jesse Helms felt free to say on CNN that Clinton is not up to the job of Commander in Chief -- a remark that was widely regarded, even by some of Helms' ideological brethren, as very nearly unpatriotic. Earlier in the week the crusty Senator, who will chair...
