Lusia, meanwhile, had been talking with our "landlady" and had taken a look around the apartment, which had four rooms (one reserved for the landlady), plus kitchen and bathroom. The landlady told Lusia she was the widow of a KGB officer. (It took us six months to discover what her real duties were: to make sure that the window in her room was left unbolted to allow KGB agents access to the apartment from the street, bypassing the police manning a watch post.)

...limited to a bizarrely menacing alliance between American Nazis and skinheads on 21 Jump Street. So too does TV breezily dismiss the crisis of the black family. On Bagdad Cafe, Whoopi Goldberg plays a recently jettisoned wife whose son's only adjustment problem is that working in the restaurant kitchen interferes with his ambition to be a classical pianist.

But unlike Fences, a kitchen-sink drama firmly grounded in reality, Piano Lesson seems haunted by specters of the brutal past -- as haunted as the U.S. still is by the legacies of slavery and Jim Crow. Director Lloyd Richards and a splendid cast give the script the production it deserves. That was not, alas...
