...years, Sir's dresser Norman (Tom Courtenay) has shielded him from difficulties and the truths that sear. Playing loyal serf to imperious sovereign, he has bolstered Sir's morale, salved his ego, washed his underpants, suffered his diatribes and basked in the reflected glory of his occasional triumphs upon the stage. Norman is nimble-witted, mocking, tartly observant, yet given to foggily elusive reminiscence. His most trusted friend seems to be the half-bottle of Scotch in his back pocket. Norman is a homosexual, but his love for Sir is protective, albeit possessive, and achingly platonic...
...husband's team. Mrs. Banda, whose husband hails from Malawi in Central Africa, gave birth to a baby girl Nyanyika Mary Banda Sunday morning at 12:30 a.m.....

Not since The Tin Drum has there been so unchildlike a child in film...
Both of us are loyal to the countries that nurtured us and protected us from rebellion and other follies. Indeed, America, like New Zealand, is often accused of being more British than Britain is, while Louisiana, like Quebec, hearkens back to an earlier and in many ways more pleasant France. No Englishman could show more excitement over a cricket match than the average sports-loving American, and last week's beginning of the World Cricket Series was a national ritual for most Americans. Louisiana, in turn, has retained that raffish, somewhat off-center charm we associate with all things...
