By Lawson Oates and Dawn Wood The central theme of Sylvester Stallone’s movies is the underdog beating the odds and coming out on top. It personifies not only his acting roles but his own climb up the Hollywood lad- der, We saw it in the Rocky and Rambo series, and most recently in Cliffhanger. Demolition Man takes this theme to a new dizzying | height. The movie begins in war- torn Los Angeles in 1996. Using unorthodox methods, Sergeant John Spartan of the Los Angeles Police Department arrests master criminal Simon Felix (Wesley Snipes). In the process, 30 hostages die in a blazing inferno. Spartan takes the rap for this tragic loss of human life and is sen- Open Tues. — Fri.

Director Marco Brambilla is able to skillfully turn the process into a type of,reverse metamorphosis. You can’t help but think of a fetus ina womb as Spartan is engulfed in a glycerin-like gel and curls into a fetal position. By the 2030s life in L.A. has become pacified and sedate. Verbal morality statutes are given out by a computer for swearing and violent actions are something relegated to the past. However, not everyone has bought into the new west coast trend. An underground movement of subterranean proletariat, known as Scraps, are bent on something differ- ent for society — less-clini- cal, with more beer, pretzels, and freedom of speech (yes! in that order). To nip this subversive movement in the bud, Felix is reactivated by the adminis- tration. To deal with this unheard of violence the cops (who are unaware of the administration’s scheme) the socio-political norms of our age and those of the 2030s. Snipes, fresh from his role in Rising sun, steals the show as the wise-cracking Felix. His performance is convinc- ing and remains fresh despite a limited dialogue. Brambilla, with the help of'a willing Stallone, is‘able to add a tongue-in-cheek ele- ment to Stallone’s perfor- mance. To call it a parody is going too far. But let's say that Stallone is comfortable enough to have a laugh or two at his own expense.

The introduction, last year, of the Georgetown Children’s Chorus (age 6- 11) was a tremendous suc- cess. Mr. Wood feels there is an opportunity for more young people to improve their musical skills and have a lot of fun in the process. This musical group, as yet unnamed, will be for ages 11-14.
