"THE ICE STORM" (18) Sunday, December 8th


IT is Thanksgiving, 1973, and the climate is changing, politically and en'viromnen-


tally. As the Watergate scandal unfolds, the


inhabitants of New Canaan, Connecti­ cut, begin to slip into an existentialist void, where social taboos are shattered on whims and the line between adult author­ ity and juvenile responsibility is practi- c^ y non-existent. Focusing on the Hoods and the


Carvers, The Ice Storm chronicles a brief period of moral degeneration. As the narrative de'vice of an ice storm


builds up around them, the actions of the 1 characters -
