...something of an identity problem. And since he likes to visualize himself sporting an Afro haircut and helping Kareem Abdul-Jabbar lead the Lakers to N.B.A. glory, the evidence seems to support that theory. But a couch, unless it is shared by a blond as attractive as Dana Wheeler-Nicholson -- playing a distressed damsel he rescues -- is the last place any sensible person would want to find him languishing. Much better for himself and a gray, tired world that Fletch be up and doing, a gliberated male whose principal weapon in the war against crime...
...sides were equally unyielding on other issues. Shultz repeated American demands for a Soviet apology for the March 24 killing of U.S. Army Major Arthur Nicholson Jr. and reminded Gromyko of "how these incidents blow our relationship off course."

As a result, there was a preponderance of East bloc officials at the ceremonies. Along with the Soviet veterans came Vyacheslav Kochemasov, Moscow's Ambassador to East Germany, and General Mikhail Zaitsev, commander of Soviet forces...
...last years of D'Artagnan and the aging three musketeers. The creator of the 1984 Soviet film Kindergarten describes his new script as a "sparkling tragedy" about the "relationship of heroic people with the Establishment. I think the majority of humanity are unrealized musketeers." He talked to Jack Nicholson about playing D'Artagnan, but is prepared to take the job himself if necessary. Says Yevtushenko with a hint of sparkle: "It's absolutely my part, but it is difficult to direct a film and have a main role...
