Former Hertz spokesman O.J. SIMPSON has demonstrated a remarkable ineptitude at shaping his public image. First there was that unpleasant murder trial, followed by a string of bizarre interviews and an endless series of golf outings when he was supposed to be searching for ex-wife Nicole's killer. Now he has been spotted, and photographed, by the Globe with a woman who bears an eerie resemblance to Nicole, far right.

...daft, inspired, yet miraculously unhammy star turn. Short doesn't merely show off his versatility (how about that German accent, folks!); he creates a string of finely crafted caricatures. Truth be told, the Neil Simon-Cy Coleman-Carolyn Leigh musical hasn't aged all that well. Based on Patrick Dennis' satiric memoir of a fictional grande dame of the stage and screen, it's too sketchy and weightless, with a rather severe dramatic flaw: the central character (played by the full-voiced, full-figured Faith Prince) is constantly upstaged by her multi-role-playing co-star...
