...each picture, not the front, so family fun shots don't look as if they were caught by airport security cameras. Film loading is simplified (drop in a cartridge, shut the camera, the film threads itself), and a button allows you to switch among three image sizes (standard, wider, panorama)--but these are only modest advances over today's models...
With all of England but the royal family tuned in, Princess Diana appeared on the BBC show "Panorama" tonight to say that her marital woes drove her to bulimia. Though her hour-long interview with reporter Martin Bashir offered no bombshells about the monarchy, Diana did continue the relatively new tradition of royal confessional. "I desperately wanted [the marriage] to work," she said of her 14-year marriage to Prince Charles. "I desperately loved my husband and I wanted to share everything with him, and I thought we were a very good team." Diana also said that the news...
...camera work is especially disappointing. With the full expanse of the heather-clad highlands to exploit, Caton-Jones focuses over and over again on hackneyed panorama shots and unconvincing, Hollywood-esque interiors.

So after she committed suicide on Jan. 15, it was to the same stretch of coastline that her children--Debbie, 32, and Doug, 23--brought her ashes...
Paglia sees a sexual wasteland populated by Sandra Dee girl-women who cry wolf at the first wolf whistle, and by clueless men emasculated by feminism's stern dictates. The longest new essay, ``No Law in the Arena,'' is a panorama of hot-button topics: rape, harassment, pornography, abortion. What makes Paglia infuriating and invaluable is her willingness to find, in these victimological issues, shades of male anxiety and female responsibility. There are also quieter pieces, notably a loving memoir of four homosexual friends who helped shape her sensibility. But it's silly to ask this brainy pipshriek to calm...
