...taken on the Greatest Story Ever Told in his new film, Dogma--has erroneously decided to do both. Depending on who you are, this either inspires horror, laughter or pious reverence to the Great and All-Powerful Alanis. On the first day, she created Jagged Little Pill. On the second day, she created Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie. On the third day, the poor girl should have rested--"Still," her contribution to this soundtrack, is enough to make me you wish you had martyred yourself somewhere in between day two and three. Perhaps she could have done us all a favor...
...those Savage Garden guys sure know what to sing to make a girl swoon. If you've liked what you've heard from their first album ("Truly Madly Deeply"), then Daniel Jones and Darren Hayes' second is a must-buy, especially for any cheesy romantic. With its honest lyrics and catchy tunes, the latest release by the Australian duo is consistent with the quality of their first album (tell me "I Want You," with its chic-a-cherry-cola random lyrics didn't ingratiate itself into your head).

State monopoly funding of films and a wary censorship board forced any critique of the regime to be shrouded in allegory. Zhang bypassed the necessity of oblique distance by circumventing the State entirely: his second film, Beijing Bastards (1992), was the first independently financed film in post-1949 China...
...they're actually paying me to do it!" Singer Gene seemed to be having an equally good time. When the rest of the band stepped off stage "to take a leak," leaving him to play a lighter-waving ballad, he barely managed to keep a straight face through the second verse. Though the band's musical mix of grungy alt-rock and bouncy hoe-down country would have made for a decent concert by itself, it was their presence and stage antics that made it a truly great, entertaining show. Though the brothers Ween may be known for their adolescent...
