New Orleans Hornets
The Hornets have activated forward/center Chris Andersen from the Injured List.
Andersen had missed the last six games (five on the Injured List) with an infected right elbow. The infection was in a laceration that he originally suffered in the Hornets' game February 28 at Dallas. Andersen, who has averaged 7.5 points and 6.0 rebounds in 60 games for the Hornets this season, will be available for tonight's game vs. Houston. In other transactions, the Hornets placed forward/center Maciej Lampe on the Injured List with lower back spasms. Lampe had averaged 2.2 points and 1.5 rebounds in 13 games with the Hornets this season after being acquired from Phoenix along with Casey Jacobsen and Jackson Vroman on January 21
**** The Crying Game
Neil Jordan's story of an IRA terrorist
(Stephen Rea) is a remarkably well-written
piece of work that at first seems to follow its
protagonist in aimless yet intriguing direc-
tions, but eventually reveals itself to be a per-
fectly structured look at violence, race, love,
and sexuality. Rea is ordered to guard a kid-
napped British officer (Forest Whitaker), but
he begins to care for the hostage and later
flees to London, where he meets the officer's
girlfriend (Jaye Davidson). The two halves of
the film, which contain some completely
unpredictable plot twists, become mirrors of
one another, reflecting how understanding and
compassion may be a means of salvation.
