...film rests on the shoulders and taut torso of Bale, who as a child starred in Steven Spielberg's Empire of the Sun and played Jesus in a recent TV movie. His Patrick is stylish and creepy--Jack the Ripper in an Armani outfit. Bale's dishy anonymity (he stares at himself and says, "I simply am not there") makes him the ideal black hole at the center of this movie. It needs to be seen and appreciated, like a serpent in a glass cage...

But a new book, High-Access Home, by Charles A. Riley II, suggests other options that combine aesthetics and accessibility for people with all sorts of disabilities.

Susannah Clapp's With Chatwin, of two years ago, was as sleek and elliptical and unorthodox as its subject, and gave us the man as he looked from across an editor's desk. Shakespeare, a stylish novelist with a gift for exotic locales (in the Acknowledgments he cites sources in 22 countries, from Benin to Nepal), provides every other face. The figure who emerges was a deeply solitary soul, hiding behind his exaggerated performances but genuinely driven by a vision, and elusive, perhaps, even to himself...
