...above the demeaning roles. But Welch was in on the cheat. Predatory, she'd wriggle up out of the water, reptilian and sleek, looking like she'd just been stamped out by a plastiglob toy set to jiggle from the rearview mirror. She seemed almost threatening, as though her super-tapered body slimmed down to huge hidden webbed fins at the extremities. In Musketeers she gets to exude a natural clumsiness--she steps into buckets and falls down stairs. The slapstick here works as it does for the rest of the film--every time Welch starts to get sexy...

...relentless organization. Last year many of the days were broken down into ten-minute periods for jogging, machine work and other exercises. Many Dolphin veterans, as Shula himself admits, "bitch and moan" about the regimentation. "But they always do what we ask." Last year Shula asked for a second Super Bowl win. This year he will be requesting a third...
