...Kris Kelly, while functional, pushes neither the actors nor the space in any profound direction. Much more interesting is the costume-design of Naeemah White-Peppers and Valerie DeCharette '02; from George's relaxed academia, clad in earth tones and corduroy, to Honey's prim and proper coordinated outfit or Nick's slick, ambitious look, each costume says something insightful about its respective character...
...child, I haven't shopped at a baby megastore in years, and a recent trip in search of a shower gift had me reeling. The $5 billion-a-year baby-product industry would have new parents (and their friends) believe that it takes a truckload of gear to properly outfit a nursery. But while some of these products are useful, a surprising number seem designed to remove parents from the actualities of dealing with their baby's bodily functions. Some products are simply wasteful.

Eventually Hunter quit as well, but the two left a big legacy: a wavemaking outfit ever ready for new battles, the latest against genetically modified foods--or, in Greenspeak, Frankenfoods...
...movement of whom toward what, though? That's the puzzle. What's the opposite of globalization? Socialism? Isolationism? Vegetarianism? The answer is all three things, and many more. The radical-chic outfit of the season is a coat of many colors. If you trained a license plate-reading surveillance satellite on Washington last week (or better yet, swept low in a black helicopter), you would have seen bumper stickers, signs and buttons promoting animal rights, organic farming and Pat Buchanan for President. You'd even have seen a soccer ball or two being kicked around by--this is real--something...
...film rests on the shoulders and taut torso of Bale, who as a child starred in Steven Spielberg's Empire of the Sun and played Jesus in a recent TV movie. His Patrick is stylish and creepy--Jack the Ripper in an Armani outfit. Bale's dishy anonymity (he stares at himself and says, "I simply am not there") makes him the ideal black hole at the center of this movie. It needs to be seen and appreciated, like a serpent in a glass cage...
