...damages for the death of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. The $5,100 Heisman was one of the first items to go. The $500,000 inventory list submitted to Fujisaki by the Goldman family lawyers also included a $700 Buffalo Bills helmet, a $25,500 Andy Warhol silkscreen of Simpson, Simpson's $60,000 Chevy Suburban, a $40,000 14-carat gold necklace with 89 diamonds, plus an assortment of golf clubs, Baccarat crystal vases, Limoges china and sports trophies.

California as a deathly seducer, California as a golden road to Luke's Body Shop, California as a white and fiery sale for polished, antique organs--Schrader takes no chances. He plays fixed checkers, hopping from red to black, focusing where the sun shines. But American Gigolo dies even as a mere California movie because it doesn't know where...
Hall and Rohr originally used a photocopy of stock market quotations in the Wall Street Journal as a negative for a silkscreen, but after receiving legal advice, they decided to typeset a fictional stock market page instead...
