...going to spend my time moralizing about the problems," he said. "I'm going to spend my time changing government policy that has assaulted people's incentives to be productive." But at the convention he was the brusque, twangy Texan who knew how to play on the crowd's utter contempt for Clinton, while sidestepping the social issues they care most about. "Phil gets up every morning, asks himself what he can do to get himself closer to the White House, and then he goes out and does it," says a former House colleague...
...more exploratory in chord structure and overall form. Shostakovich's jazz embodies a kind of ethereal chintz that might call to mind, on first listening, the London compact disc, Riccardo Chailly and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra of Amsterdam attempt to bring forth that light naivete in all of its utter inocuousness...
...these things would be useless if the film did not contain performances to match. Campion's direction is perhaps her greatest achievement in "The Piano."

She lives, just after the turn of the century, not in the Wild West but in the remote hamlet of Witless Bay, Newfoundland (one store, one restaurant, a sawmill and a drydock). Her lover is Fabian Vas, the narrator, who could easily have been the subject of a stultifying art novel. From age 8 he has spent most of his time in inlets and marshes sketching...
