As the zip-lipped daughter Goldberg liberates, this 9-year-old screen find has enough personality to further dominate the film's other pleasures: An eclectic '50s-hip soundtrack (Sarah Vaughan to Jackie Wilson) and the fleeting sight of Don Ameche hula hooping in his final film.

The movie certainly needs a pleasure IV after its shaky start: a tired nanny- A GOOD MAN IN AFRICA A mid-level British diplomat in an emerging African nation must balance his career climb with the demands of a conscience awakened by a morally upright doctor in this comedy.

today; 9.25 p.m. Friday through Wednesday ANDRE PG Ray Liotta is Manny and Whoopi Goldberg is Corrina in 'Corrina, now playing in Jackson.

Idiosyncrasy, though, can make a difference, and this flaky family comedy eventually wore me down and won me over. If nothing else, producer-director-writer Jessie Nelson's autobiographical debut feature seems too obviously personal to be casually dismissed as goo.

Friday, Saturday; 7 p.m. Sunday This new family film offers moments of good humor and warmth as well as likable human and animal stars. But, I still can't quite give this seal approval. The story of a little girl and her unlikely friendship with a seal offers too many moments of implausibility and an over-the-top soap opera finale.
