...production finds the same raw ambivalence in the quartet of lovers. The rivals Demetrius and Lysander come into the forest armed with flick knives. Later, under the influence of a love potion, they are ready to fight and die for love of Helena, whom hours before they both had ignored, and are almost willing to kill Hermia, to whom they both had sworn undying devotion. Even after a restorative drug has returned them to orderly pairings, all four eye one another uneasily: they have lost the sweet certainty of first love. At the curtain call, the pairs come out again...
...Gorbachev's heavily armored black ZIL limousine, airlifted from Moscow, swung into view. Reagan, shedding his overcoat, stepped out into the raw morning and stood stiffly at the top of the steps, as if at attention. Quickly striding from his car, Gorbachev theatrically swept off his black fedora. Reagan came down and grasped the hand of his rival with a firm handshake seen around the world.

Zach (Michael Douglas), the genius director, must brood...
...downtown Roman Catholic campus in California was supposed to look? The small site is in a raggedy neighborhood; the budget was not great ($4.8 million); students and faculty yearned for a physical sense of community. Gehry's solution is a small miracle. Using his customary sorts of raw materials--galvanized steel, plywood and stucco--he has virtually invented a new form of late-20th century urban classicism, simultaneously gritty and dignified...
