- <p> Is Tom Hanks a Master of the Universe? The actor most
- certainly looked like The Bonfire of the Vanities' Sherman
- McCoy last week as he crossed Park Avenue carrying a briefcase
- and clutching a film moppet's hand. Tom Wolfe's best seller is
- being shot in Manhattan with a neatly coiffed and expensively
- tailored Hanks as the beleaguered Wall Streeter who feels a
- "refreshing nip of fatherhood" while walking his daughter to
- her school bus stop. From there it's all uphill to the Bronx and
- the final steps to the graffiti-marked courthouse where McCoy
- gets his comeuppance.
