...government's reasoning is that a bear should live free in a forest, not in a crowded city-and certainly not with its teeth removed, subsisting on bread and milk and fettered by a painful noose through its nose. They shouldn't behave like Girdhari Lal, a bear who knows all the standard stunts. How does a movie heroine walk? The bear stands on his hind legs and sways seductively. A hero? The bear swaggers.

Take a good look at the woman in the picture at left. Gaze into those brown UFO eyes, get a load of that Roman nose and those flaring lips, features that have been memorized by a global audience via Spanish films like Pedro Almodóvar's Live Flesh and All About My Mother, and Hollywood outings like Woman on Top and All the Pretty Horses.
