...trashier. There are the driving dance singles “Womanizer” and “Circus,” schmaltzy ballads “Out from Under” and “Blur,” and even a reflection on her continuing war with the paparazzi in “Kill the Lights.” Above her predictable rhythms and enhanced voice, it’s Britney’s oversexed lyrics that define the CD. “Circus” is shocking not because it was finally made, but because Britney so desperately...

As the stars emerge, they find themselves in a perilously crowded courtyard of people and paparazzi. There are three film crews jostling for sight lines. Tempers fray, pushing starts and a local policeman begins to yell at the top of his voice at a knot of uncomprehending Italian journalists.

...kids today, especially the most conservative, may think of gays as belonging to some vague outlaw culture. But they might be surprised to learn that when Harvey Milk was a young adult, gays were outlaws. The new movie begins with newsreel clips of men hiding their faces from the paparazzi's flashbulbs as police remove them from some furtive gay bar of the 1960s - the decade when practically every underclass of society but theirs got liberated.
