Volume III, Issue 6
August 2 - August 9, 1999
LETTER FROM THE EDITOR:
quick trip to the video store, and you can be spending the summer on the shore, courtesy of a selection of beach movies.
A conversation with Andrew Fleming, whose new film, "Dick," is a comedy of errors that gleefully works through the outrageous conceit of a slightly wacked, alternative universe.
A documentary looks at Selena's life from a Latina feminist perspective, examining how young Mexican-American girls found a role model and pop-cultural icon in the Tejana from Corpus Christi.
Plus, more horrified reactions to "The Blair Witch Project" and its big-budget competition "The Haunting," "Runaway Bride," "Deep Blue Sea," Emmy nominations, and more.
