LETTER FROM THE EDITOR:
his week's film section has a veritable cornucopia of
delights for you. We're not kidding here. We have an interview
with "pi" director, Darren Aronofsky. There's a feature
on Sarah Kelly's documentary movie-within-a-movie regarding the
making of "From Dusk Til Dawn": "Full Tilt Boogie."
Jamie Lee Curtis reprises the role that crowned her the Scream
Queen: Laurie Strode in "Halloween H20" and she talks
about returning to blood-soaked Haddonville.
You'll be able to sample even more reviews on Steven Spielberg's
"Saving Private Ryan."--quickly becoming this summer's
must-see film. Now you can read why. When your done with that and are still looking for more on "Saving Private Ryan," visit last week's film section.
Minnie Driver tells us all about the two things wrong with Hollywood: their idea of versatility and their idea of Victorian England. She corrects those problems in her latest picture, "The Governess."
Finally, don't miss Gerald Peary's retrospective on the
late Roy Rogers and his films. Happy Trails, Roy--we'll miss you.
