	Spider Woman's Legacy: The Art of Navajo Weaving - Ronald McCoy
		The most enduring popular image of the Navajo is probably that of solitary woman sitting outdoors, surrounded by the towering mountains, sun-baked plateaus, and snaking canyons of the Four Corners Country - where the borders of Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah meet - weaving a blanket or rug or her vertical loom.
		Underground, in Spider Woman's subterranean abode, Changing Woman beheld the loom used by her master-weaver host, a fabulous creation with cross pole of sky and earth, warp sticks made of sun rays, and heddles formed from rock crystal and lightning.
		When weaving, Spider Woman used a batten stick made of a sun halo and a comb of white shell; the sticks of her four spindles were made from four different kinds of lightning, their whorls cut from fl cannel coal, blue-green turquoise, marbly white shell, and iridescent abalone shell.

		It was Spider Woman who taught Dine (Navajo) ancestors of long ago the art of weaving upon a loom.

		Later, when the peaceful Dine (Navajo) youth felt assured his enemy was gone, he thanked Spider Woman warmly and he safely descended to the canyon floor by using her magic cord.

	Kiss of the Spider Woman
		Kiss of the Spider Woman is one of those films whose ideas are so richly provocative, and successfully realized often enough, that their considerable missteps don't impact the full viewing experience nearly as much as they should.
		It is to its credit, certainly, that Kiss of the Spider Woman translates its notions of class conflict, penal injustice, and the crucibles of Latin America's oppressive regimes to an English-speaking public that tends to get nervous about any one of those subjects.
		Sifting through all the implications of Kiss of the Spider Woman's last half-hour is likely to be confusing, and possibly infuriating, all the more so because narcotic hallucination abruptly gets thrown in as a variable in the anarchic collapse of the film's point of view.

		One of the most famous novels of the ‘70s, Manuel Puig’s Kiss of the Spider Woman (1976) was the source of both the 1985 Academy Award®-winning motion picture and the 1993 Tony Award®-winning Broadway musical.
		Never performed in New York, on or off Broadway, Kiss of the Spider Woman arrives newly born in a completely reworked adaptation (and translation) for the American stage.
		This moving story of two men, trapped not only by the walls of their Argentine prison but by the oppression of politics and society, Kiss — the Play is a breathtaking pas de deux that, with the right cast (t.b.a.), just might have to open on Broadway instead of in our cozy SoHo space.
