...joys of Chucky are pure and simple. There's this doll, see, and he's possessed by the soul of a serial killer and so he kills a lot of people in improbable ways. Twist? Chucky's ex-girlfriend is turned into an equally evil and equally plastic doll. The brilliance of this premise will not be appreciated during our lifetime. With just a sprinkling of self-consciousness and heaps of bad taste, director Yu has made a B-movie that can easily stand next to such giants as Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!, and Plan 9 From Outer Space...
...days of "Size Does Matter" and "Bigger is Better," can a pure human drama still affect us? Leave it to Meryl Streep to quash all doubts about that. Her latest acting showcase, One True Thing, tells such an incredibly small story that it puts all the vast, sweeping movies of recent memory to shame. The film tells the story of a single family and manages to weave a stunningly intricate emotional epic. The main narrative unfolds in a flashback. Reporter Ellen Gulden is being questioned by a district attorney about assisting in her cancer-stricken mother's death. Using characters...
Alanis' most recognized strength, of course, isher ability to write lyrics that might as wellstand alone as poetry. The songs generally avoidrhyme, making for a more fluid, unpredictablesound.

I talked to people I hadn't seen in years while enduring both the chill New England weather and the noise of the subway (the station wasn't that far away). I hadn't felt an intimacy like this in awhile. Sometimes Harvard can feel as cold...
...honest: you don't buy a CD called Let Them Eat Pussy to enjoy the finer points of music. You want to hear loud guitars, grating vocals and lyrics that rhyme "motherfucker" with "sucker." Here, Nashville Pussy delivers. Regardless of its flaws, the jolt of pure energy that they provide is surprisingly addictive. Although it's embarrassing and a bit alarming to find yourself singing things like "Wake up with my balls on fire/Sweat gasoline when I piss fire" in the shower, you'll soon find yourself hooked on Nashville Pussy's simple, energetic songs...
