...Indeed, for all the praise Stroman has received for the mirror effect that mimics the overhead shot of the swastika dancers in the movie, I haven?t heard a peep about the same device that director Mark Bramble uses to create an even niftier Busby Berkeley effect in "42nd Street." This show, a revival of Gower Champion?s 1980 reworking of the 1933 movie, is hardly one that I was clamoring to see back on Broadway. Yet it packs in so much precision tap-dancing, lavishly appointed production numbers, talented performers and delightful Harry Warren-Al Dubin songs (including three...

Then Young decided, on a whim, to start listing the bags themselves on eBay. Her good deal and her low overhead meant she could charge less than retail stores, even after shipping costs.

Billie doesn't quite match Anderson's best cable work, mostly because it's too often as subtle as an overhead smash. While in an airport, King decides to play Riggs after hearing that he's beaten Australian tennis ace Margaret Court--then, to triple-underline the moment in red, she witnesses a male pilot feeling up a mortified, silent stewardess. What saves the film is its understanding of the odd symbiosis between the vain, garrulous Riggs--played by Ron Silver with an endearing desperation--and the equally media-savvy King, who needs his histrionic male chauvinism to advance...
