Death, a stranger in any child's cosmos, seems grossly alien in Hilary's. She lives in a pale-yellow house a block from the ocean in Avon-by-the-Sea, N.J. The tiny town is a summer beach destination--Ginny met George on the boardwalk when she was just 17 and both were working menial hotel jobs--with a year-round population of slightly more than 2,000.

Whether Feinberg's hard shell is personality or professional affectation, it was cracked soon enough.

...Being a gifted populist artist as well as (his word) a "tittenfilmer," Meyer didn't simply display acres of swollen flesh; he vigorously tilled that fertile field. His top-heavy starlets grunted and hove in aerobicized ecstasy, exhorting their pale male swains to "Strap me on!" Meyer's oeuvre was all about sex: getting it, revering it, suffering for it, joking about it and, mostly, staring at it. He achieved what, John Berger has written, is the essence of cinema: Men looking at women. Women with pontoon protuberances...
