...Altman is based on the director's mingling with the top dogs of haute couture -- designers, models, financiers et al. -- during one of the big pret-a-porter ("ready-to-wear") shows in Paris last spring.

Police believe he either was playing Russian roulette or assumed the gun was unloaded. Travis Hogue, 18, is accused of shooting and killing Nikki Chambers, 19, a male rival, in the rest room of a McDonald's in April with four shots from...
...play (PBS, March 28) is possibly the first to make it seem like a blessed relief. Fiona Shaw's self-absorbed, unsympathetic portrayal makes Hedda ditso from the start: darting, distracted gestures, nervous facial tics and a voice that drops to an inaudible whisper about every third line. Stephen Rea (The Crying Game) is more engaging as the dissolute scholar who once loved her, but Deborah Warner's dark, eccentric production defeats...
