...master-of-disguise strangler on the loose on Manhattan's Upper East Side. He's tracked by a young George Segal as a hangdog cop with some mother problems of his own. For extra currency, try Steiger's third incarnation as Dorian Smith, the swisher with a heart of stone who's been a very bad boy. Look for "Jaws" mayor (and The Graduate's Mr. Robinson) Murray Hamilton as Inspector Haines, and Charlie's Angels go-between Bosley (David Doyle) as the piqued Lt. Dawson. Really slow weekend? Try Tommy Lee Jones and Faye Dunaway...

Bedford is a torpid southern Indiana stone-quarry hamlet where the politics are dull, racial disputes are rare, and crime is so infrequent that Mayor John Williams boasts that his home has no lock on the front door. But bring up hospital loyalties--an allegiance some Bedford families have solemnly passed down for three generations--and townspeople are likely to get agitated. "You don't get the care you need there," 86-year-old Martha Terrell, a Dunn patient of 50 years' standing, says of the institution she won't patronize. "Whenever anyone new moves to town, I tell them...

More than 1,000 potential buyers, a phalanx of reporters and dozens of young Christie's employees in little black dresses watched Christie's chairman LORD HINDLIP auction off 79 of DIANA's castoffs--some lovely, some dated, some plain hideous. The "Up Yours" dress, right, so called because Diana wore it to stunning effect the night Charles admitted his infidelity on TV, was an early favorite...

...working overtime in Hollywood with galleys of Killer Instinct, a forthcoming tell-all tome that chronicles the making of Natural Born Killers. Written by one of the film's producers, JANE HAMSHER, the gossipy book is filled with wicked wit, mostly skewering screenwriter QUENTIN TARANTINO and director OLIVER STONE.

Among the choice bits: details about Stone's stoned-out mushroom trip in the desert and Tarantino...

That was about all she could manage. Treanor dissolved, her body racked by sobs, and almost everyone in the courtroom dissolved with her. Jurors wept openly, survivors wailed, reporters groped for hankies and sodden bits of tissue. Through it all sat McVeigh, cold and silent as stone. At that moment in that room, it seemed inconceivable that the jury could do anything but sentence him to death--and that anything but simple vengeance would be the reason why. When the day's testimony was over, even Matsch looked shaken. "You're human, and I'm human too," he told...
