...nothing matters or intense enough to believe that everything does. Fonda has always been the intense type. What has united the various phases of her life--from daughter of a Hollywood legend to Parisian sex kitten, from Oscar-winning actress to Hanoi Jane, from first lady of fitness to Sun Belt Christian--is a zealous belief that each transformation has brought her closer to enlightenment, and an urgent need to share...
...willingness to let his church stand totally naked before it. Toward the end of the 20th century, reflecting on the Catholic Church's two millenniums, John Paul issued extraordinary apologies for the Inquisition and the Crusades.

All of this culminates in a double-sized page that you must...
...Mainstream newspapers (the Timeses of New York and Los Angeles, the Chicago Sun-Times' Roger Ebert) and magazines (TIME and Newsweek) reviewed the more ambitious soft-core movies in the 60s and then hard-core, when it was legally exhibited. Why? Because it was sufficiently dangerous, popular, newsworthy and, frequently, ambitious to warrant the interest of reviewers. The opinion of many of them, including me, was that there might be a meeting of pornography, which had quickly established a kind of artistic pedigree, and Hollywood, which was striding toward explicit sexuality.
