People in the news Bootleg Beatle music ‘legal’ NEW YORK (AP) Paul McCartney says he sometimes listens to bootleg Beatles music, but he’s ambivalent about releasing such recordings. McCartney, the other two surviving former Beatles and EMI Records settled protracted lawsuits a year ago, clearing the way for the release of some of the band’s unreleased audio and video work and possibly some of hundreds of hours of studio outtakes, The New York Times reported Sunday. “If someone were to come to me and say, ‘Look, I’ve got this very charismatic little album of outtakes,’ I’d have no problem with that,” McCartney said. “I do like to hear some of the bootlegs, where we’re setting up things. And I often argue with people that if Picasso was great, then his sketches are great, too. “But we’ve tried to release the very best of our work,” McCartney said. “If you start making the alternate takes available, in 10 years people may not know which was the finished take and which wasn’t I’d rather avoid the confusion.” The singer-songwriter recently released “Tripping the Live Fantastic,” an album taken from his 10month tour that ended three months ago. A film about the tour, “Get Back,” is due out in the spring. • NEW YORK (AP) Six-year-old Robin Weisman says there were two things she didn’t like about playing Mary in the sequel to “Three Men and a Baby” “I had to say a bad word in the movie,” Robin told Ladies' Home Journal in its December issue. (It begins with ‘s.’) She also missed her Florida home “and all my Barbie dolls” while filming “Three Men and a Little Lady” in Southern California. Otherwise, Robin said she had a great time making her first film. Her three co-stars are Tom Sellcck, Ted Danson and Steve Guttenberg, whom she described as “funny and nice.” • LOS ANGELES (AP) Actress Audrey Meadows, Alice on “The Honeymooners,” returns to the screen Monday night during a special on the classic 1950 s television scries and its star, the late Jackie Gleason. Rare “Honeymooners” footage will be shown during the CBS special, which features co-stars Art Carney, who played Norton, and Joyce Randolph, who played Trixie. Gleason, who died in 1987 at age 71, played Alice’s husband, the portly New York City bus driver Ralph Kramden.

Viewers see ‘Twin Peaks’ killer

NEW YORK (AP) Laura Palmer’s father primped in front of a mirror, and “Bob” already pegged as the “Twin Peaks” murderer looked back. Whether Leland Palmer knew it was not clear. Neither FBI agent Dale Cooper nor Sheriff Harry S. Truman knew it. And Maddy, Laura’s look-alike cousin, didn’t know it at least until Leland-Bob attacked her. But ABC came through on its promise, finally, to show the killer during Saturday night’s episode of the series David Lynch and Mark Frost created. SINCE THERE’S ALWAYS another side and generally it’s a weird side to every person and thing in the logging town of Twin Peaks, you might be afraid to trust your vision about Leland-Bob. Who knows what might happen next week, with another man arrested for questioning in the killing, Cooper struggling to interpret a vision that might or might not enable him to save Maddy, and another diary of Laura’s discovered. ABC had promised twice previously to reveal the killer, first in last season’s finale, then during the twohour season premiere in September. It came through during television sweeps, when viewership is measured so network affiliates can set advertising rates. A LONG-HAIRED MAN named Bob was placed at the murder scene, apparently bludgeoning Laura. It had been hinted that Bob, who has been seen in the visions of Cooper and Laura’s mother, may be a demonic force who requires a human host. So, what’s going on? Does Leland (Ray Wise) pretend to be Bob? Does he have two personalities? Why can some people see Bob, and some only see Leland? There’s still suspense left, “Peaks” freaks. And plenty of other plots to pique your interest. And what of Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan) and Truman (Michael Ontkean)? After all their work, they grabbed the wrong guy. Earlier in the episode, Benjamin Home, after tell-

paul McCartney Avoids confusion

NEW YORK (AP) Actor Kevin Costner says having his wife, children and parents on location on the South Dakota prairie while filming “Dances with Wolves” was a distraction, but worth it. “You sometimes find yourself thinking, ‘I could do this better if I was by myself,”’ he said in the Nov. 19 issue of People magazine. “Then you think, ‘Yet I’d miss two months with my son two months with my family.’” Costner, 35, stars and debuted as a director in the saga of a cavalryman who befriends a tribe of Sioux. He brought along his wife Cindy, their three children, Annie, 6, Lily, 4 and Joe, 2 and his parents. He even gave them roles as pioneers in the movie’s opening scene. The three-hour epic opened last week. Costner previously starred in movies including “Field of Dreams” and “Bull Durham.” • NEW YORK (AP) —Actor Steven Seagal’s mom says the martial-arts master was frail and suffered asthma as a child. “He was a puny kid back then,” Pat Seagal said in the Nov. 19 issue of People magazine. But she said Seagal at age five “really thrived after the move” from Michigan to Fullerton, Calif. Mrs. Seagal said her son played rock music in the garage as a teen-ager and learned aikido, the Japanese martial art that has propelled him to stardom in “Above the Law,” “Marked for Death” and “Hard to Kill.” • CINCINNATI (AP) Cincinnati Bengal quarterback Boomer Esiason is to make his debut as a television character actor in January on the Home Box Office series, “First and Ten: In Your Face.” Esiason is to appear in an episode titled “Championship Game” and will play an unscrupulous doctor, Doc Reed, who injects drugs into a star quarterback’s shoulder so he can play in the big game. “I have a few lines,” Esiason said. “I’m playing opposite OJ. Simpson and Shannon Tweed, who plays the team’s owner.” Esiason, 29, played himself opposite Susan Lucci on an episode of “All My Children” in 1989.

ing his own daughter he had been in love with homecoming queen Laura, was hauled off for questioning in the murder. The lawmen could be forgiven, however. A DIARY OF LAURA’S was found at the home of Harold Smith, an agoraphobic who raised orchids, calls Bob “a threatening presence in her life from early adolescence” and a friend of her father’s. It hints at abuse and molestation. And, it says, “Someday I’m gonna to tell the world about Ben Home. I’m gonna tell them who Ben Home really is.” Benjamin (Richard Beymer), a brothel owner who dabbled with fraud and dealt with drug dealers, wasn’t too hard to see as a killer. Leland, too, was an early favorite among “Peaks” freaks. One theory had it that he had molested his daughter, driving her to drugs and kinky sex. And unable to stand what he’d done, he killed her. ELEMENTS OF THAT theory may prove true. And Leland has already been charged as Leland, not Bob with killing another character. Lynch directed Saturday night’s episode, and, wearing a trench coat to match Cooper’s, appeared as Gordon Cole, Cooper’s hard-of-hearing boss.
