...laughs in this movie, and there are many, stem from its broad, broad comedic style combined with some of the most irreverent camera work since the Coen brothers' farcical Raising Arizona. DeVito has enough smarts to realize that the unlikely plot machinations of Momma call for unconventional visual tricks and he also has enough imagination to pull them off. The camera swoops and pans at dramatic moments and will pull right up to an actor's face for a gag line. When Donner collapses on the floor after a particularly exhausting encounter with Momma, the camera spirals slowly upwards...

It is both more earthy and more fantasticated. Some of it looks forward to the nature worship of the Romantics, centuries later. Some predicts writers like Edward...
CINDY SHERMAN, 33, belongs to a new American avant-grade which emphasizes content, narrative and ideas while exploring the effect of the visual image on the self and on culture. Sherman herself has attracted international attention for her provocative and grotesque photographs, most of which she appears in. Yet Sherman's photographs, which will be on display at the Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA) through January 17, cannot be called self-portraits, for the artist uses make-up, costumes and wigs to create different characters, different personae in each piece...
