...Monsters, and a Nazi near 80 in Apt Pupil. "People must think I'm in my 70s," he says with a sigh. "My danger is being typecast older than I am." But that, ladies and gentlemen, is Acting. Sir Ian is a lithe 59, two years junior to Redford, Nicholson, Hoffman. He doesn't care to be cast forever as grandpa or the grand codger--a premature Gielgud...
...many started to drag, including the new compositions "I Want To Want You" and "Bad Day." Even the popular "Spin The Bottle" (as featured on the Reality Bites soundtrack) couldn't completely capture the fancy of the crowd, despite Juliana's assertion that it was a "song about Robert Redford...

The reason: Feingold not only limited his campaign spending and refused soft money; he also discouraged ads from...
...Today we salute The Natural, or at least this year's incarnation: Shane Spencer of the New York Yankees. Just like Redford's Roy Hobbs, he's a nobody from nowhere and at 26, a little old maybe to be breaking into the bigs. Unlike the hero of Barry Levinson's gorgeous, myth-infused baseball fable, Spencer is neither angel, Christ figure, nor the best there ever was. But he's one hell of a hitter...
