TOP OF THE WEEK:
VIOLENCE GOES MAINSTREAM:
Ultraviolent movies and novels have, until now, been on the fringes of mass culture. No longer. "The Silence of the Lambs," about a serial murderer who skins his victims, and the cannibal who helps the FBI find him, has been No. 1 in box-office receipts for five consecutive weeks. "American Psycho" is a best seller. Since the arts shape our behavior and attitudes, the assault of brutal imagery threatens to desensitize us to, and even prompt, real violence. The Arts: Page 46.
APOCALYPSE IN IRAQ:
Wartime bombing and postwar rebellion have reduced Iraq to a "near apocalyptic" condition, warns the United Nations. The chaos poses a special dilemma for the United States. Washington wants to bring
home the U.S. troops that occupy southern Iraq, but it also wants to see Saddam
Hussein overthrown. The troops may have to stay for months. Special Report: Page 14.
A BACKLASH AGAINST PROZAC:
Every month Americans fill nearly 1 million prescriptions for Prozac, now the nation's top-selling antidepressant. Although it costs 20 times what older drugs do, it seems to alleviate more symptoms, from depression to bulimia, with fewer side effects. But some patients say Prozac made them violent or suicidal; scores have filed lawsuits against the maker. Some even claim they are not responsible for crimes they committed while on Prozac. Lifestyle: Page 64.
