EDITORIAL
THE SLEUTHSAYER
Entertainment Weekly put it succinctly after this year's Oscar telecast: "Billy
Crystal came back, Angelina Jolie wore black, Warren Beatty hobknobbed with Jack,
and Canada got sacked." And our 8th "Anatomy Awards" is stacked...
Even Variety marveled at Hollywood's hysteria: "You'd think that after 72
years of microscopic attention paid by the industry, media and public, interest
in the Academy Awards would have waned, that we finally would have grown tired
of this annual ritual, deeming it ultimately less significant than the hype surrounding
it. Yet, the collective obsession regarding Oscar, along with the stakes attached,
appears more pronounced than ever." If only they'd learn to pronounce it
`Anatomy'...
"Wed actresses are nothing new," Allure shrugged this May, "but
respect for them is! After all, eight out of ten actresses nominated for an Oscar
this year have been in the buff at some point in their career." Nice try,
guys: Sleuth has ALL TEN...for the FOURTH year in a row!...and they're each in
this issue at this point in their career.
As one critic gushed: "We're so impressed with the Best Undressed. It was
the year of acting nudely and quite frankly, we're all for it. This year's top
movies feature an unusual amount of casual nakedness and Raw HUmma-porn-star">Uman Emotions—which
can only be a Good Thing.—As is the fact, noting this year's nominees, that
yours truly—The Insider—has used his Sixth Sense and gone that extra
Green Mile to unearth the very best American Beauty. And that's why our Sight•Her
House Rules!
Perhaps this year's Best Director, Sam Mendes, was also speaking of Sleuth when
he praised his inspiration for Beauty: the film that won the Best Picture Oscar
exactly 40 years before his—The Apartment: "It's about sexuality and
shame, and yet the story is told with an incredible lightness of touch. Oh, it's
just a complete masterpiece, isn't it?" Modesty forbids...
"It's like the Constitution of the United States," salutes "longtime
Oscar voter" Sharon Farrell la two-time Sleuth subject). "It's like
the only thing in the world that can't be bought." Except at your local nudestand.
For Your Consideration,
