PEOPLE, Page 78A Nice Place To VisitBy Howard G. Chua-Eoan
Bernadette Peters may have played the Witch in the musical Into
the Woods, but she's a wide-eyed waif when it comes to Slaves of
New York, the movie of Tama Janowitz's 1986 subculture novel, due
in March. Though raised in nearby Queens, Peters found the film's
Manhattan settings alien. "It's a whole other world," says Peters.
"People live in burned-out buildings." Janowitz, who has a cameo,
thinks Peters has "downtown flair." As for her own movie debut, the
author admits flubbing her lines, "which was funny because I wrote
them myself."
