| Once upon a time, or at least last summer, fairy-tale ogres and their sidekicks were the golden characters of Hollywood. |
| Both were deeply but ambivalently bonded with their male sidekicks and, to both, women were simultaneously a lure and a threat. |
| This is the sort of bravado often uttered by managerial sidekicks, usually only to be jettisoned the moment they graduate to being their own men. |
| The wicked stepmother has two sidekicks, Clench and Crunch, and a magician also appears in the July 9-12 production. |
| No longer simply comic foils or chubby sidekicks, the leading men of these shows are supersize stars. |
| The leader does surround himself with lapdogs and sidekicks, people who have been involved in attempted rape, paedophilia, wife battering. |
