...Angeles has lately become the stage for the nation's most gripping real-life dramas as well. The sort of narratives that Hollywood studios, in their quest for blockbuster profits, have almost abandoned--complex moral tales of actual human beings facing the ultimate issues of love and loss, rage and separation--have moved from the sound stages onto the streets. Beginning with the taped beating of Rodney King in 1991 (by far the most important footage to come out of L.A.'s image factory that year) and continuing through the O.J.

...Pride and Prejudice (A&E) Having arrived just when it seemed Austen-mania could be borne no longer, this lush production radiantly revived the rage for Jane. With perfectly observed sets and a keen grasp of the subversive social themes that underlie Austen's comedy, this mini-series put its competition to shame. PBS' Moll Flanders...
