What do you think of men who wax their chests? Guys used to come to the [Baywatch] set all the time with no chest hair, and they just look like drowned rats to me. I like to be like SpongeBob and go au naturel...
...indulges in music-bio clichés ("Ahmet, we gotta get that on wax!") and familiar, if potent, cold-turkey histrionics. But it paints vividly on a broad canvas, with attention to local color and the telling detail. The cast is terrific from top to bottom--Kerry Washington as Charles' wife; Regina King and Aunjanue Ellis as his singer-concubines; Sharron Warren as his tough-love mama; Clifton Powell as his friend and roadie; Bokeem Woodbine as sexy sax man David (Fathead) Newman.

DIED. FAY WRAY, 96, shriektacular heroine of the original King Kong and other thrillers of the early talkie era; in New York City. Still in her teens when she started in silent films, she developed the scream she would make famous in later films like Mystery of the Wax Museum and Doctor X. She had to fight off all kinds of movie beasts, getting pawed by Erich von Stroheim in The Wedding March and Wallace Beery in Viva Villa! But the great ape was her strangest, strongest suitor, in a horror film that was also a poignant love story...
