Vida and her friend Noxeema Jackson (Wesley Snipes, another stud star who looks swell in Dynel) are on the road with a third dragster, Chi Chi Rodriguez (John Leguizamo, who is not so much a queen as a saucy serving wench). They stop for repairs in a nowhere town where all the men are brutes or louts, and all the women worn out trying to survive.

...Taliesin (Welsh for "shining brow"), his home and architecture school at Spring Green. Those historic connections with Madison must have given Wright a special feeling for Monona Terrace. Between 1938 and 1958, he designed at least four different versions of the project. (His pupil and son-in-law William Wesley Peters produced another revision after Wright's death...
