...Women & Men: Stories of Seduction goes heavily Hollywood -- marquee- worthy directors, proven scriptwriters, a cast of (mostly) stars -- in its rather literal rendering of three modern classics. In Mary McCarthy's The Man in the Brooks Brothers Shirt (adapted and directed by Frederic Raphael), a radical journalist (Elizabeth McGovern) meets a crass business executive (Beau Bridges) who makes use of his booze and her boredom to lure her into a one- night stand during a transcontinental railroad trip.

...generated holographic images to experimental helmets equipped with tiny TV screens for each eye. There are 3-D video games, 3-D still cameras and double-lens camcorders for people who want to make their own 3-D home videos. One enterprising California firm, 3-D TV of San Raphael, markets a $189.95 "video lunch box" that includes stereoscopic goggles, a 3- D videocassette and a plug-in adapter that permits 3-D movies from the past to be shown on today's VCRs.

...Splinter, a similarly mutated rat who had once been the pet of a ninja warrior and who continues to tangle with his master's human nemesis, the Shredder. Splinter drills his wards in ninja-fighting techniques and names them after his favorite Renaissance artists: Leonardo (the group's leader), Raphael (the rebel), Michaelangelo (the jokester) and Donatello (the technical whiz). "The characters should have Japanese names, but we knew we couldn't come up with convincing ones, so we decided to go way in the other direction," explains Eastman...
