...show--Spelling has endured, projecting an odd combination of goofy sincerity and trashy glamour that has also carried a string of popular movies-of-the-week. Is this skill? Or her luck in having an arresting face, pretty yet shovel-like (she cops only to a nose job)? Whatever one thinks of such fare as Mother, May I Sleep with Danger?, her longevity is a feat that transcends mere patronage; just ask Sofia Coppola. "Tori's got acting chops--she's just been doing awful material," says House of Yes director Mark Waters, who had seen Spelling only...
...Rockies spin out of the ground like the spurs of a boot, and a herd of antelope is grazing along a bend in the Missouri River. Willie Nelson and Ray Charles come on the radio to sing Seven Spanish Angels, and it seems prudent, if not reasonable, to nose up to 100, 105, 110. At 112, you can almost see the seven angels. It's 85 miles from Great Falls to Helena, with a lot of curves (it'd help if they had signs saying CURVE AHEAD, SLOW TO 90), and you cover it in a 57-minute blur with...
...Force during World War II--which must have laid the ground of his later comic-strip images of gung-ho pilots blasting their enemies from the sky--and then, after studying art at Ohio State University, moved back East.

...young, hot, video-trained director. Fifty-three years old, Malick this day cuts a modestly dashing, mildly eccentric figure in work shirt, blue jeans, big black rubber boots, a wide-brimmed hat slung over his back Zorro-style and a surgical mask strapped Michael Jackson-style across his nose and mouth (the smoke, a producer says, is irritating a Malickian sinus condition...
Though he is tall, bald, possessed of a hawkish, handsome nose and a striking snow-white beard, Malick's most distinguishing feature may very well be the intensity of his gaze--appropriately enough for a filmmaker--which has an unsettling quality of being both wide-eyed and penetrating. As it happens, these are also qualities that associates and friends ascribe to the man himself. He is also said to be, in no particular order, difficult, honorable, secretive, deeply spiritual, sweet, vindictive, humble, mercurial, self-possessed, insecure and the best-read person on the planet. "He's a genius," says...
