...competition ended exactly as it should have. Yamaguchi was the most consistent athlete and freshest stylist. Skating to Lecuona's Malaguena, she showed the delicacy and pace that make her a joy to watch. In the long -- 4- min. -- format she fumbled one triple jump, but everyone else in contention did at least that. In the current high-vaulting, teeter-totter world of skating, to jump is to survive, to land upright is to prevail...
Kristi Yamaguchi does not have a triple Axel either, but that's about the only weapon her arsenal lacks, and in the past year she has completed the transition from a cute kid trickster to a poised and elegant stylist. She too had to leave her home as a teenager and pursue superior coaching at Edmonton, Alta. Canadian champion Kurt Browning, who also trains there, is a pal and a one-man cheering squad.

This film, bound as it is by action-movie conventions, hasn't the originality of her stunning horror drama Near Dark, and toward the end Blue Steel spins goofily off track. But it has a handsome time getting there, propelled by Curtis' sensible sensuality and Silver's bravura creepiness. These two help dramatize the danger any woman can find in the desperate intimacy of a big city. By the climax, Megan has to be thinking of Eugene...
...style advocated the rights of blacks, reintroduced strong Afro-Brazilian rhythms and made prominent use of electric guitars. Veloso projects intimacy in personal, deeply reflective songs such as those on his new album, Estrangeiro (Stranger). Gil, whose lyrics can range from overtly political to dreamily poetic, is a versatile stylist whose repertoire ranges from reggae to rock to electric variations onsamba...
