...star Gena Lee Nolin will star in Sheena, Queen of the Jungle, in which she will morph her body into animals'. That can't be bad. The only catch is that Sheena will focus on saving the environment, which means the show will have to include a lot of leopard morphs to make it worth watching...
...haute-fashion shoot at a real Las Vegas boxing match, with a model, dressed by Helmut Lang, cavorting with Tony Curtis and George Foreman. On the cover, Hillary Clinton looks heavenward as if invoking divine guidance for her husband's "sin of weakness," Gwyneth Paltrow crawls on a leopard-print rug, and George W. Bush looks as if he's about to cut loose with some earthy language (as he does inside). The juice is in the juxtaposition, says Brown, as she lovingly leafs through her 254-page creation in her office 56 floors above Carnegie Hall. "I wanted...
Tarzan to the rescue! If not fiscally, then artistically. From the first images, the picture chest-thumps its narrative expertise. A shipwreck brings the baby Tarzan's parents to the jungles of East Africa; they die violently in a leopard attack; a baby gorilla is killed by the same leopard, Sabor; the grieving gorilla mother Kala (voiced by Glenn Close) discovers the humans' corpses and their living child; she saves the child from Sabor and decides to rear the human as her own; Kala's mate Kerchak (Lance Henriksen) gruffly, suspiciously accedes to her wish.

Her wit completes her cosmic victory, particularly in her facial expression of painful, soul-wrenching yearning when gazing upon a diamond...
...Deborah Kerr and Yul Brynner five years later. So who needs another King and I movie? Kids, apparently. So here is an animated feature that expands and dumbs down the story. There's some kung fu, a Jafar-style villain with satanic powers, a cartoon menagerie (funny monkey, majestic leopard, etc.), and lame comedy with a crudely drawn, Buddha-shaped fall guy. It's all needless--and harmless. But even with pretty, painterly backgrounds and the eternal lilt of the songs, this film has a limited target audience: six-year-old boys who want to be Michael Crawford...
