IN THE Martin Scorsese-directed "Life Lessons," within the larger film "New York Stories," a grizzled abstract painter played by Nick Nolte is cleaned-up and charismatic in tux and tales - yes, tales, because a man with an ego the size of his Manhattan loft has to lubricate his big exhibition opening not only with Smirnoff's Gold, but also silver tongue. And fortunately for Nolte's "action" artist, Lionel Dobie, he has literal war stories to tell these bejeweled patrons - shaggy anecdotes about how his X-rated doodles were once dropped beyond enemy lines, as renderings intended to deflate the fighting hearts and minds and cartoon-helpless eyes of the humble foot soldier.
