...preached to the economists who don't need it, rather than the politicians who do -- the only real action taken by President Clinton during his two-day summit in Moscow was this: He and Yeltsin agreed to slash their nuclear stockpiles by 50 tons of plutonium each, and to share sensitive information on each other's missile launches. Arms control and early warning systems may not seem so relevant at a time like this, and 50 tons represents barely a quarter of Russia's plutonium stockpile. Even so, it is a telling sign of the deepening crisis that...
...then," he says, "and the executives made a jillion dollars when Northwest got healthier. Now it's doing very well, and the labor contracts are up, and the pilots want their pound of flesh." To Northwest, says Saporito, the pilots are "overpaid prima donnas who already got their fair share." Clearly, there are no white hats in this one -- just a lot of native South Dakotans with no way to get home for Labor Day (OK, several native South Dakotans).

Diane Keaton, we are told, is radiant enough to ensnare Beatty's Jack Reed and Nicholson's Eugene O'Neill -- but it's a captivation the viewer somehow doesn't share. And aren't "The Witnesses" just an endless parade of wizened faces fleshing out a story we'd rather watch ourselves...
...course, those action-adventure staples contributed their share to the box office bonanza. "Armageddon" is the summer's biggest moneymaker at $180 million (although "Private Ryan," the No. 1 film for the past four weeks, has the asteroid flick in its crosshairs). Look at the rest of the top grossing movies of the season so far, though, and you'll see that the summer box office heroes came in all shapes and sizes...
