...electric: Yoko Ono, goddaughter Winona Ryder, former Mama Michelle Phillips, dolphin researcher John Lilly, onetime Dodger catcher Johnny Roseboro, the widow of Aldous Huxley, the members of the industrial-metal group Ministry, and Ram Dass, who used to be Leary's old Harvard bud Richard Alpert. Oh, yes, Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins just dropped by and dropped off a tape of Dead Man Walking. "It's a little hectic up here," says Leary's personal assistant, a young woman with magenta-streaked hair, Technicolorfully tattooed legs and the too-good-to-be-fact name of Trudy Truelove. "Sometimes...

...picaresquely amid near catastrophes. Selick gives this all a bit more focus by making sure the early events, including the rhinoceros, resonate throughout the film. He also gives James (winningly played by Paul Terry) a mission: to find his dream city, a Deco-delicious Manhattan. Spider (voiced by Susan Sarandon) here has the melancholy hauteur of a Garbo femme fatale; and the Centipede, obnoxious in the book, is now a Leo Gorcey type (voiced by Richard Dreyfuss), who gets a shot at redemption by fighting a shipful of skeleton pirates straight out of Ray Harryhausen's The 7th Voyage...

The heterosexual actors, for the most part, don't come off as well. Whoopi Goldberg and Sarandon radiate satisfaction with their own openmindedness, Hanks seems fairly happy-go-lucky both about his youthful homophobia and his recent embrace of a more sensitive persona. Harry Hamlin seems more perceptive than most, admitting his own tendency to question...
