 DIE HARD FAN - Bruce Willis
Recent films include Death Becomes Her (1992), The Player (1992, as himself in a funny cameo), National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon I (1993, another gag cameo), Striking Distance (also 1993), Color of Night and fine character roles in Nobody's Fool and Pulp Fiction (all 1994).
Just as some wags were writing Willis off as a flash in the pan, he landed himself an action film; there was skepticism that he could carry a Stallone type of part, but the role of a loner cop in Die Hard (1988) was tailormade, replete with wisecracks, and the film became a tremendous hit.
Feature-film work quickly followed, first with a pair of films for Blake Edwards: a moderately successful slapstick farce, Blind Date (1987), and Sunset (1988), a strange Hollywood whodunit set in the 1920s that miscast Willis as cowboy star Tom Mix.

Russo's work is rare in its attention to these "most important things," and his readers have much to anticipate.

 the representation of people with psychiatric disabilities in documentary film
Another film that came out on the heels of the psychiatric consumer movement is Dialogues with Madwomen (1994) by Allie Light, who discloses that she is one of the self-identified former psychiatric patients starring in this feature-length film.
Fit to Be Untied ends with a "fools ball" that, in contrast to the chorus line of the opening and closing scenes of Titicut Follies, presents the patients as happily enjoying this liberating event, rather than as a series of puppets on the warden’s string.
However, Huston’s interpretation of the men as rising from the ravages of war was clearly not welcomed by the commanders-in-chief who kept the film from being released for thirty-five years.

In a region already unnerved by the outbreak of the SARS contagion, the reaction to Leslie's dreadful April Fool's shock was swift and volcanic.
At his Toronto concert a voice cried out, "I love you, Leslie!"; he said, "I love you too, whether you're a boy or a girl." The line happens to be one he delivered in the hit 1994 comedy He's a Woman, She's a Man, but it winks at the man's pansexual appeal.
