<p>FREEDOM OF SCREECH
</p>
<p> So cultivated, yet so given to imprudent rants: Michael Moriarty--actor, pianist, composer--has been attacking Attorney General
Janet Reno's campaign against TV violence and has called the
nation's top law person"awesomely, frighteningly sick." Charging
that NBC was trying to curtail his outspokenness, Moriarty resigned
from his role on Law and Order. Free to gripe, he headed for
Howard Stern's radio show, where he attacked Clint Eastwood
for failing to share his anti-Reno fervor.
</p>
<p>SEEN & HEARD
</p>
<p> Luckily, Michelle Pfeiffer's next role will not require her
to wear a skintight Catwoman suit. The newlywed, set to begin
shooting My Posse Don't Do Homework in a few weeks, has learned
that she is pregnant. But her condition shouldn't interfere
with her work. In Posse, Pfeiffer plays a teacher who favors
the oversize look.
</p>
<p> He has attained untold wealth and now ecstatic critical acclaim.
What is there left for Steven Spielberg to want? His own theme
restaurant. The auteur conceived and has invested in Dive!,
a submarine-inspired eatery scheduled to open in Los Angeles
this spring.
</p>
<p> Many have called the AIDS film Philadelphia unrealistic, but
the family of the late Geoffrey Bowers believes the movie is
too true to life. Like the Tom Hanks character in the film,
Bowers leveled an AIDS-discrimination suit against his prestigious
law firm. Now his family is suing Jonathan Demme, Philadelphia's
director, and TriStar Pictures for allegedly appropriating the
story.
</p>
<p>FINDING JODIE, FERAL CHILD
</p>
<p> Liam Neeson, suave savior in Schindler's List, is about to become
Liam Neeson, suave savior in Nell, the improbable story of a
small-town doctor who encounters a woman who was raised in a
forest and invented her own language. JODIE FOSTER will star
as the grownup feral child. She is also producing the film,
which she describes as "very pure, not flashy." Foster says
she cast Neeson because he has "a kindness and sweetness to
him, a vulnerability." She adds, "I didn't want any smoldering
types. No Tommy Lee Joneses."
</p>
<p>THE TRIALS OF GLAMOUR
</p>
<p> Those of us who think supermodeling really is pretty easy work
now have Christy Turlington Backstage, an upcoming television
documentary, to persuade us otherwise. The grainy film, directed
by Robert Leacock, son of cinema verite pioneer Richard Leacock,
records the life of the world's most affable runway goddess
as she prepares for fashion shows in Europe and New York. "Five
days, eight fittings, eight different hair and makeup sessions,
photo shoots. All that in five days!" CHRISTY TURLINGTON moans
before the Milan collections. How does she cope? She chain-smokes,
she giggles and she remains philosophical, saying, "There's
just not any way to adjust to this kind of life."
