Liotta: No, never. I didn't really want to go to college, and my parents said, "Just go, take whatever and try to feel what you want to do." So I went down to Miami, took drama and saw what that was about and decided I liked it. I read constantly about what other actors were saying and what they do, and I would watch their work. And I realized they don't have anything I don't have. They just had a break, that was it. So it really wasn't until college that I decided...

...Frankenheimer's aptly flashy technique is now a part of Hollywood's visual vocabulary. The performances are daring and assured, especially Lansbury's holy terror of Momism and Harvey's snide, pathetic pawn, brainwashed by both KGB AND CIA.

...answers." Bush's Cabinet would be a model of old-fashioned Republican moderation. It would surely include his longtime confidant James Baker, who would probably give up his stewardship of the Treasury to take over as Secretary of State. Nicholas Brady, chairman of the investment banking firm Dillon Read & Co. and a former Republican Senator from New Jersey, is a longtime Bush adviser; he might succeed Baker at the Treasury...
