Deborah Ross Staff pick The Star Maker Giuseppe Tornatore, the Italian filmmaker who struck gold with Cinema Para-diso in 1988, was less successful at the box office with this darker film about his nation's passion for the movies.

Nevertheless, this story of a con artist who tricks peasants into paying for fake movie auditions is a fine rental selection. It has sex, nudity and subtitles, so put the kids to bed before you pop it into the machine. Cathryn Creno. New this week Gulliver's Travels Ted Dan-son's adaptation of this classic novel isn't too swift. While the performances are fine and the special effects are state-of-the-art, this highly rated, Emmy-nominated TV miniseries is more of a thin adaptation than a cinematic interpretation of Jonathan Swift's satire.

Bob: "Kids, gotta have a little fun in this life!" Elizabeth: "No, when you see it in print, you can't get the humor, but it's there." Bob: "The Toledo Blade even wrote an editorial saying what a great idea." Elizabeth: "But just say, 'in or something, just Bob: "Can't say 'in jest' to grown-ups. What is this, Washington ox The Honey moonersl Finally, this month's George is, as ever, chock-full of political stories and tidbits. You can read about women in politics, remembrances by Chicago policemen who worked the '68 Democratic convention or interviews with Elizabeth Dole and Pat Schroeder conducted by John Kennedy.

But for my money, the best thing in the magazine is Karen Field's brief analysis of Dole's and Clinton's health (although the drawings of both men in their underwear is a bit much). You learn, for instance, that Dole has no right shoulder due to his war injuries, and that Clinton has "occasional bouts of gastroesophageal reflux," a type of heartburn. Shows what fast food will get you. A nti THEBESTIHANmBe KKJUkDMA'ttuMlJI what was I saying?) He's tried Crime. (He's against it.) Hollywood.

And while it's not fcr everyone, it's the closest thing to Gonzo Journalism I've seen since before the cough-medicine cocktails caught up with Hunter S. Thompson.

Gail Sheehy's "Valley of the Doles," a look at Bob and Elizabeth and their relationship, in this month's Vanity Fair, is also compelling. For instance, you may feel a little different about Republican family values after reading about the breakup of Dole's first marriage. But the most-interesting part of the story concerns Elizabeth Dole's attempt to script an interview with Sheehy, in which Bob "pops in" on cue and hilariously screws things up. Sheehy: "Would you really like to see Elizabeth Dole debate Hillary "'Lommvii ClKJPN wiHOirr Aromcrre UtL viJ LrvVRN NGTO KM.

They discover the Susan B. Anthony Hotel, a perfect place except for one thing you have to be a woman to rent there.

Next scene: Hanks and Scolari in drag, pretending to be bumpkin sisters Buffy and Hildegarde. The ruse works, and the two buddies begin switching gender back and forth as quick as Superman in a phone booth. The best line comes when their friend Amy, noticing Hanks' pink-pink two-piece suit circa 1940, offers him a Pink Lady to drink. Hanks' character blusters, "I'm getting out of this ensemble. I'm getting a terrible urge to read Sylvia Plath." The second episode of.

Vol. 1 centers on Scolari, whose masquer-, ade as a woman is getting so good that he feels a need to reassert his macho side. The comedy is a little edgier than in the pilot, with a little bit more sexual innuendo and that's all to the better. Bosom Buddies aired from 1980 to 1984.

Actually, they're both on the cover of this month's Esquire.

The magazine has profiles of each by two Pulitzer Prize-winning writers, and the resulting stories are as different as the candidates themselves. I started to advise skipping Taylor Branch's "Clinton Without Apologies" altogether, but it's so hilariously partisan, fawning and downright laughably bad, it's worth it for the yucks alone. Branch goes on at length about his relationship with Clinton, which was renewed after a 20-year hiatus 1 after Clinton was elected in 1992. The idea, from what I gather, is to give us an up-close-and-personal look at how the president conducts business, but what we really get are vignettes like this: "I have seen him carry on an intense phone discussion with the secretary of state while chewing an unlit cigar, finishing a crossword puzzle, and moving on without a beat to deal solitaire." So, the guy sounds like he'd be fun at a party. Does that make him a good president? Branch makes some interesting points, but we've listened to enough personal meanderings by the time he gets there including the presentation of a Jefferson Memorial bird feeder by his father, who made it, to the president that it's hard to care.

Richard Ben Cramer's "The Heart of the Bobster," on the other hand, while a little muddled, takes off like a ricocheting bullet from the get-go: "It's summertime, and the Bob-ster's still snappin' his jaws, trying to sink his teeth into the Big Issue. He's tried Red-Ink Budgets. (S'about arr chillren, 'nar GRANN-chillren!) Chinese Commies. (Agh, gotta live with 'em.) And Star Wars. (Y'want me to be Reagan, urn I I 1TJ.Tr 1 1 1 lit 'K i ji.
