...planning to produce a feature film based on my life. I'm working on the script right now, and Tarantino has agreed to direct (we are old friends). We are already working out the casting: perky Winona Ryder will play me as a wide-eyed idealistic freshman, and the 400-pound transvestite actor Divine will play me as the bitter, disillusioned senior (yeah, I know Divine is dead but I'm sure we can prop him up or something. They can do anything with dead people in the movies these days--didn't you see The Crow?). My Roommate will...
...second suspect, known as "John Doe 2," the manager of the Great Western Motel in Junction City, Kan., said today that the man had been there two days before the incident: "He spoke broken English. It was a foreign name. He said he was from Colorado. He drove a Ryder truck." Junction City is where the FBI has said the Ryder truck used in the bombing was rented...
Hollomon is a talented actress whom one would suspect of being Winona Ryder and Dave Pirner's love child if she weren't in the same age group.

The Bureau has issued sketches of the suspects: one is between 5'10" and 5'11' feet tall, weights 180 to 185 pounds, and has light brown hair with a crew cut; the other...
...illustrates the debasement of currency in talent and beauty of today's actresses compared with their counterparts of the 1930s and '40s. Can the dim-bulb performance of Marisa Tomei in Only You (1994) stand up to Carole Lombard's luminosity in My Man Godfrey (1936)? How can Winona Ryder, Uma Thurman, Sarah Jessica Parker and Drew Barrymore compete with Rita Hayworth's Gilda, Gene Tierney's Laura, Ingrid Bergman's Ilsa in Casablanca and Merle Oberon's Cathy in Wuthering Heights? It's the same twentysomething age group, but these actresses had more than faces. They were riper, more...
