...Bille August's intricate and compelling realization of Peter Hoeg's best-selling novel, Smilla Jaspersen has given her professional life over to the frozen music of mathematics, her private life over to bone-chilling isolation. The set of Smilla?s face, the carriage of her body, as Julia Ormond plays her, says, ?Don?t ask, don?t touch.? She relents -- angry at the show of weakness -- for just one person. That is a lonely little boy named Isaiah, who lives in her apartment building. One day Smilla comes home from work and finds Isaiah dead, the victim...

President Clinton will lead America forward into the 21st century with a lot of hope, vision and dreams for a better nation for all! JAY RANDAL Ormond Beach, Florida...

Born in a configuration similar to the Hensels' but with four arms rather than three, the Holton twins were separated in 1992 at age 3 in a 15-hour operation involving 25 doctors at London's Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital.

For each family, the visit, recorded for ABC's 20/20, was a stunning encounter with the road...

Kinnear, host of NBC's Later and, before that, the E! channel's Talk Soup, swipes his scenes from Hollywood belle du jour Julia Ormond and nearly matches Harrison Ford for easy radiance. In his first major film role, Kinnear seems comfy-cozy on the big screen, humanizing a character--Ford's playboy brother--who could easily be a thin, tennis-anyone anachronism. "He has a lot of charm," says Sydney Pollack, who first sought Tom Cruise for the role...
...work as well now as it did in the '50s; Cinderella stories don't date any more than Jane Austen stories do. And the new acting team isn't half bad. Ford's muttering misanthropy may actually be funnier than Bogart's harder, more sardonic take on Linus. Ormond is no Audrey Hepburn, but Hepburn was sui generis, and Ormond does have a shy charm all her own.
