AMMCACMMANV UNCLE BUCK' IS CONSISTENTLY FUNNY! on owr mo uu iitii vmo John Candy triumphs with his finest performance to date? DvidAmtn, NEWSWEEK MAGAZINE "'Uncle Buck' is the kind of movie that so effectively served the star comics of the past, from Chaplin to Jerry Lewis, it is very entertaining, a real showcase role for John Candyf Dave Kehr, CHICAGO TRIBUNE "'Uncle Buck' is John Hughes' best film since 'The Breakfast Club' and ift John Candy's best film ever!" Stephen Hunter, BALTIMORE SUN In the film "The Killing Fields," Sam Waterston and Haing S. Ngor are confronted by Khmer Rouge gunmen. "'Uncle Buck1 is funny and "'Uncle Buck1 is a honlingly funny comedy! A hilarious romp. warm-hearted!" Philip Wuntch, DALLAS MORNING NEWS vS 1 i ill You laugh so hard, tears stream down your cheeks. It is a triumph for John Candy.

John Hughes is a master at the heartwarming-but-outrageous comedy." "John Candy is instant laughs! Uncle Buck's family will have you laughing all the way homer -Pat Collins, WWOR-TV Mick Martin, SACRAMENTO UNION 'Killing Fields' Continued from Page 19 ties. These photos were taken right before execution, smashedin faces, terrified eyes. "I can't see the faces clearly. Is there a book of names?" Schanberg asks our interpreter Heng Chhay. "I want to see if any of my friends are on the wall." This is a hard place to be.

I feel dizzy. I touch the wall for balance. And I have been here before. But Schanberg, the master reporter, takes over. He begins his questioning Heng.

Gently at first. "Where were you living when they came for you the day of the evacuation? You walked where? Across the bridge? Who was with you?" Quietly, slowly, with a staccato rhythm, he probes, pushes, presses for details. "Then where did you go? Did you take a boat? Were you separated from your family? What work did you do when you got to the camp?" "Every night I was frightened," Heng says, "Its when they would take people away. The man on my left, he cried out, 'Why do you arrest me? The Pol Pot soldiers say noth-wig. Were you there the whole time in that area? Where were you during the liberation? What condition were you in?" Schanberg is relentless.

Heng keeps up with the barrage and falters only when he tells about his aunt. "It qoas 1977, the worst year. She got sick. And they wouldn't help her. They took her to the so-called hospital and gave her an intravenous injection of normal river water.

And she cried out, shouted for me and there was no one there. I asked permission of the chief to see her. He said no. One hour later, she died, in agony. Of convulsions." "Do you hate them?" "They are guilty of genocide." "What would you do if one of them came here now?" "I would say, why did you kill your own people? You are crazy.

Your body is Khmer Cambodian but your heart is not. You are not a humanbeing." Heng has kept the tears back too long. They spill from his eyes. "I am sorry to make you think back like that," Schanberg says, "For both of us." Softly, Heng says, "These memories are not good." Schanberg, deeply moved, takes his hand. They walk away together to regain composure.

(Forgive me, Sydney, for eavesdropping on your interview. Finally, it is the big day. The film opens to the public. We are oblivious to the oppressive heat as we arrive in front of the 900-seat theater in the center of the city. We are greeted by gridlock, hundreds S.v.Xa.
