...snagging that corner office and the big house on Elmwood, think about that L word: legacy. Remember Radcliffe's leader in the Forties and Fifties, Wilbur Jordan? Seventeen years in office, and all he got were some lousy tract houses on Shepard Street named after him. Nathan Pusey got a pile of books stored underground. If Rudy doesn't snag the Memorial Hall Tower, I say grab it. Or how about the Fineberg Forest? Start brainstorming, Harvey. A presidency is a terrible thing to waste...

For in the thick of reading period stress, the director...

...audience, describing the interviews they did and re-creating them at the same time. There are choice, often harrowing details: the bartender recalling that the two killers paid for their pitcher of beer entirely in dimes and quarters; a deputy sheriff noting that the only place on Shepard's face not caked with blood was where there had been tears; an antigay Baptist minister expressing regret for the crime along with hope that in his last moments Matthew "had time to reflect on his lifestyle." (Shepard is not a character.) All this is enhanced by the shrewdly minimal staging: snatches...
