...small English village, the betrothal of two of its wealthiest inhabitants, Alexis (Adam Wolfsdorf '97) and Aline (Jenny Little '99) is being celebrated by the whole town--with the exception of the lonely Constance (Jennifer Tattenbaum '99), who is pining away for the love of the ditzy but endearing Vicar, Dr. Daly (John Driscoll '99).

The scarlet admonition then materializes like a cartoon birdie every time Hester (Demi Moore) glances at a man. In a High Mass of heavy-handedness, this fowl of doom engages in virtual sex with the slave girl Mituba (Lisa Jolliff-Andoh) in a bathtub while Hester and Dimmesdale (Gary Oldman...
