  • Warren Beatty

    The ambitious and radical star -- actor, producer, director -- crafted a remarkable and uncompromising slate of mainstream movies.
  • A dress makes the heart grow Fonda

    Julia feels for HRC; Jane falls for Vera Wang. Plus: Will she or won't she? 'Course she will! Darva Conger makes it last and last. And: Hoax on us! Esquire's fabricated "It" girl now actual "It" girl.
  • Halle on wheels

    What do savvy Hollywood insiders do when they see Halle Berry's car coming? Run. Plus: Sex and the senior gal Helen Gurley Brown's still milking it after all these years.

    Salon's critics consider the Oscar-nominated movies of 1999.
  • Scooping the Oscars

    Does the Wall Street Journal know who will win? Not if the academy can help it.
  • Throw me a quote

    All I needed were a few pithy comments from celebs on the subject of sports gear. After hundreds of messages, I've finally realized that Hollywood doesn't like me.
  • Age and the academy

    A new study of Oscar nominees shows that older guys and younger women get the statuettes.
  • Egomania!

    Lucianne Goldberg's is monumental; Judge Jerry's is bigger than Judge Judy's; Rick Rockwell's is black-and-blue; but Muhammad Ali's is definitely the greatest of all time.
  • The secret behind "Boys Don't Cry"

    Director Kimberly Peirce says it's fun -- until the bitter end.

  • If these walls could address large crowds

    Sharon Stone's just like a lesbian, except not a lesbian; Camryn Manheim's not one either. And Harrison Ford, while not a lesbian, is terrified of public speaking. Go figure. Plus! Renie Zellweger as Bridget Jones? V.v. annoying!
  • Pick me! I'm a real multimillionaire!

    A "shocked and outraged" Trey Parker speaks out on Fox's fumble.
  • Pols, guns and androgyny

    A speed-of-light cultural flyover covering McCain, Koresh, guns, Hillary, "G.I. Blues," a heartfelt appeal to the Winslet Brigade, "Star Trek" and, well, you get the idea.
  • Cher

  • "Beauty" pageant

    Oscar nominations for suburban satire and Denzel Washington; "Mr. Ripley" and Jim Carrey snubbed.
  • In the Buffy

    Has Sarah Michelle Gellar become a vamp naysayer? Would a flying rock by any other name smell like perfume? In a world full of uncertainty, one thing's for sure ... three hours of Roberto Benigni at the Oscars are three hours too many.

  • Mark O'Brien: Lifestyles of the blind and paralyzed

    From age 6, the writer, poet and subject of the Academy Award-winning "Breathing Lessons" had the use of just one muscle in his right foot, one muscle in his neck and one in his jaw. He used them to steer his monster machine and to bang with a stick on the keys of a computer -- to write, cajole, editorialize, storm, cry, laugh and rage.
