REVIEWS

CINEMA Woody Allen returns to pure comedy in Manhattan Murder Mystery, but he seems distracted. King of the Hill takes a tough-minded look at boyhood during the Depression. MUSIC Clint Black sings radio-ready country pop that has a splash of introspection. From Britain's Gavin Bryars comes a minimalist milestone. THEATER That spunky orphan is back, but in Annie Warbucks, her appeal is much scaled down. BOOKS Showdown at Opal Creek is a clear, sensitive account of the timber wars in Oregon and the fate of the last old- growth stands.
