ARIES (March 21 to April 19) All
calms down this week on the domes
tic front and you arc able to con
centrate on important career
developments. A link to the past
comes up at an unexpected time.
However, this is a pleasant surprise.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
You are able to read between the
lines at what a friend is saying this
week. This person needs your help,
but doesn't quite know how to ask
for it. Your instinct will tell you what
to do. Over the weekend, a surprise
phone call brings good news.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You
have a tendency this week to be slop
py and careless, particularly on the
job. Use caution if operating
machinery or out driving. As the
week comes to a close, you are able
to recapture your powers of con
centration.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) As
the week begins, you’re a bit dis
oriented and experiencing some deja
vu at the most inconvenient times.
However, you conquer this and are
able to effectively accomplish what
you set out to do by week's end. A
quick weekend getaway is in the
stars for some.
LEO (July 23 to August 22)
You’re positively “roarin’ " to go in
typical Leo fashion this week.
You’re a bundle of energy and an

continued digging up evidence of
Kinder's corpse. Erica, meanwhile,
confessed she pushed him to his
death to protect Bianca. Tad was
shaken by Gloria's amorous atten
tions. Bianca told Erica she won’t let
her take the blame. Skye and Janet
planned to dig up Kinder's corpse to
save themselves. Grady posed a
threat to Julia. Wait To See: The
world changes for Julia and Noah.
ANOTHER WORLD:
Kirkland’s attic friend turned out to
be Ryan who had to work on making
it possible for him to protect Vicky
from imminent danger. Josie left the
charm bracelet Gary gave her with
their secret wedding date on it at
Sharlene's. Meanwhile, Grant
worked up a plan to learn the location
of the wedding, and then met with
Cody. Rafael persuaded Maggie to
tear up the prenuptial agreement.
After Cody left him tied up in a
dumpster, Grant freed himself and
headed for the wedding, unaware
that Carl was hidden in his car. Wait
To See: Cody’s evil plan begins.
AS THE WORLD TURNS: Tom

Barbara’s suspicions of Martin.
Later, Lisa tossed John out of her
house when he tried to show her a
tape about Martin. Mike was stunned

Natural
by Joe Ryan
Collegian Staff
Are you desensitized? That is the
hypothetical question Oliver Stone
is asking of those who view the
original version of Natural Born
Killers. The movie includes more
graphic violence than the MPAA
would allow, and includes
previously unreleased scenes
featuring Denis Leary, Stephan
Wright and Ashely Judd.
The purpose of marketing this
newer version now, after all the
media hype over the original, is to
better prove Stone’s additional
point; the media, especially
television, has jaded the youth of
America into ignorance concerning
violence and murder.
The basic plot of the movie
follows two misguided lovers on a
killing spree through the Southwest
while showing the media’s
interpretation of the incidents. The
movie is Stone’s major studio
version of a concept film. It is full
teds
inspiration to those around you. It
seems no one can resist your en
thusiasm! Take advantage of this
spirit of cooperation.
VIRGO (August 23 to September
22) Nitpicking and harping over in
significant details won’t endear you
to those around you as the week
begins. Your quest for perfectionism
can sometimes lead to trouble for
you. Later in the week, your mate
confides a secret to you.
LIBRA (September 23 to October
22) You’re in one of your forlorn
phases and feel as though every
thing’s going badly. Instead of being
such a fatalist, take steps to change
what’s bothering you. By week’s
end, you are once again your charm
THE BOLD AND THE
BEAUTIFUL: Jessica and Maggie
shared a tearful goodbye before she
left for school in London. Before the
men’s fashion show, Brooke hinted
to Grant to “go with the flow" no
matter what happens. Later, at the
press conference, she proposed to
Grant. Although stunned, he “went
with the flow" and accepted. Ridge
accused her of doing this on the
rebound, but refused to call off his
engagement to Taylor if she would
call off hers to Grant. After Sheila
said Maggie might cause her to lose
James, Mike took things into his own
hands. Wait To See: Ridge won't let
Taylor break their engagement.
THE CITY: Carla freaked to learn
Gino was dining with Tracy. Richard
admitted he persuaded Sydney to
help push up Nick’s place on the
transplant list. A money-strapped
Tracy learned Jacob had $15,000 to
invest, and arranged to use one of
Beth's (Dillon’s nanny) friends to
lure him into giving to her “troubled
youth" charity. Tess met with a
Broadway producer who seemed
more interested in her than in her
singing. Wait To See: Jealousy
threatens Tony and Ally's relation
ship.
of seemingly unrelated
hallucinations and images proving
that the premise for the film is not
entirely fictional.
Since its release over a year ago,
Natural Born Killers has become a
beloved target for politicians who
feel that the movie industry is
involved in the crime rates of today.
The director’s cut addresses these
concerns by showing that the real
problem lies with the politicians
and their take of it, rather than the
movie itself. Stone specifically
targets Republican Bob Dole and
criticizes him for attacking the
movie without having actually
viewed it.
The movie itself is a two hour
reality check. Stone deliberately
made the movie as a drastic parody
of the world today. He attempts to
shine light on the origins of a serial
killer by portraying two products of
very dysfunctional families.
Mickey is the son of two alcoholics
whose father is prone to violence.

DAYS OF OUR LIVES: Marlena
waited in the car as Kristen panicked
in the doctor’s office, lioping for a
miracle. Realizing Peter planned to
kidnap Jennifer and Abby, Jack
found a file that could provide more
information. Kristen’s “miracle” ap
peared in the person of her “twin."
Doug and Julie arrived as Hope and
Bo were enjoying their pre-wedding
festivities. Later, Bo raced off after
learning the attacker might be after
Billie. Wait To See: Stefano makes
things “clear" to Kristen.
GENERAL HOSPITAL: Emily
was upset to see Brenda and Jax
together before their wedding. Jason
brought Robin home from college
for the nuptials. Sonny stirred things
up when he arrived, uninvited, with
a mysterious guest. Bobbie’s world
came crashing down after learning of
Tony’s feelings for Carly. Dorman
had a plan to disrupt the Cuarter
maines. Wait To See: Jkx faces a
new challenge.
GUIDING LIGHT: Blake gave
birth to her twins with Ross and Rick
in attendance. Zachary was uneasy
about seeing Michelle with J.
Roger’s plan backfired when he real
ized he might be stuck with Dinah for
good. Alan collapsed in Phillip's
arms when he heard his son was leav
ing Springfield. Blake was worried
when Ross insisted on giving blood
to one of the twins. Annie had a
“solution” to her Reva-and-Josh
problems. Wait To See: Is it the
moment of truth for Blake?
Mallory is of an innocent girl
whose father severely sexually,
mentally and physically abuses her
while her mother lays low and says
nothing.
The movie does not in any way
claim that all families experiencing
difficulties will breed sefial killers.
However, it does show how Mickey
aand Mallory’s early and constant
exposure to violence may have
caused them to be violent and
aggressive.
The second parody in the movie,
the effects of media on murder, is
the point of the movie itself. A
talk show host, played by Robert
Downey Jr., mimics the stylings
and course of action taken by
Geraldo Rivera with Charles
Man son.
Downey’s character hosts a show
called American Maniacs that
glorifies serial killers in order to
gain higher ratings.
The interview done by Downey
was directly inspired by the

time this week to get off by yourself

were hurt. Bo didn’t buy Dorian’s

Keneally’s loyalties were revealed.

But before he could answer, Hope

and threatened to kill her. Nina ar

Wait To See: Sharon may have told

graded
interview Rivera did with Manson.
Downey, like Rivera attempts to
bring closure to the public and
sanity to the killer.
Since the reporter is in no way
qualified to do such a thing, he
appears stupid and gives the killer a
chance to broadcast his distorted
reality to millions. Due to all of
this media attention, some viewers
start to identify themselves as
Mickey and Mallory fans.
The director’s cut version of
Natural Born Killers is more
violent and more graphic than its
predecessor, but does not really
incite any more negative of a
reaction. Natural Born Killers is
not a movie to be shown to a six
year old, for most adults of average
intelligence will be able to grasp
the concept and understand that the
violence in this movie is simply a
front for the message to be grasped
from it; the media glorifies mass
murderers.
