...form whose possibilities were still being explored. The stars are not the fabled animators but the conceptual artists whose work they drew on. Here is Mickey way back when he was a rodent outlaw; drenching pastels of fairyland by Sylvia Holland; a surreal grand piano with a fierce trail of tyrannical music hovering above it--by an unknown artist. These pictures really move...
...employers are not the only ones who can raid worker benefits. Steve Anderson, the president of AlcoTec Wire, a small manufacturer of aluminum wire in northern Michigan, wondered last year why employees who left to join other companies failed to receive their 401(k) settlement checks on time. The trail led to the Honer, Timberlake Pension Services firm. Charles Timberlake, the trustee for AlcoTec's plan, admitted to stealing what turned out to be nearly $365,000 of 401(k) money. "We got the whole tearful confession," Anderson says. "He just targeted our company." Fortunately for AlcoTec, its private insurance...

Neil McCauley (Robert de Niro) is an orderly and calculating bank robber. Vincent Hanna (Al Pacino) is a disorderly and incautious Los Angeles cop on McCauley's trail. "Dispassion vs. passion, intellect vs. instinct, the implosive vs. the explosive style. As writer-director Michael Mann develops the duel between this cop and this robber in 'Heat', his film becomes a compassionate contemplation of the two most basic ways of being male and workaholic in modern America," says TIME's Richard Schickel. With what may be the best armored-car robbery ever placed on film, Schickel notes Mann is seeking...
