THIS AMENDMENT NO. 3 AMENDS AND  SUPPLEMENTS THE SCHEDULE 13D FILED ON AUGUST 4,
1998.

ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

         (a) (b) The beneficial  ownership and voting and  dispositive  power of
each of the  Reporting  Persons  over Common  Stock of the Issuer as of the date
hereof is as follows:

         (i)          Bedford  Falls owns 12.4% of Common  Stock of the  Issuer.
                      Metropolitan  Capital  has  purchased  no shares of Common
                      Stock  of  the  Issuer  for  its  own  account.   However,
                      Metropolitan  Capital  may  be  deemed  to  have  indirect
                      beneficial ownership of the 825,043 shares of Common Stock
                      purchased for the account of Bedford Falls.

         (ii)         Metropolitan  International  owns 1.3% of Common  Stock of
                      the Issuer.  Metropolitan  Capital III, Inc. has purchased
                      no shares of Common Stock of the Issuer solely for its own
                      account.  However,  by reason of its  position  as General
                      Partner of Metropolitan  Capital Partners III, L.P., which
                      has  discretionary  voting and dispositive  power over the
                      assets of Metropolitan International, Metropolitan Capital
                      III,  Inc.  may  be  deemed  to  have  shared  voting  and
                      dispositive  power over the 90,000  shares of Common Stock
                      owned by Metropolitan International.

         (iii)        KJ Advisors,  Inc. owns .59% of Common Stock of the Issuer
                      solely by reason of its  position  as  General  Partner of
                      Metropolitan   Capital   Partners  II,  L.P.,   which  has
                      discretionary  voting and  dispositive  power over  assets
                      held in the Managed Account.  Thus, by virtue of being the
                      General Partner of Metropolitan Capital Partners II, L.P.,
                      KJ Advisors,  Inc. may be deemed to have shared voting and
                      dispositive  power over the 39,215  shares of Common Stock
                      of the Issuer held in the Managed Account.

         (iv)         Jeffrey E. Schwarz may be deemed the  beneficial  owner of
                      1,155,254 shares of Common Stock which represents 17.4% of
                      the Issuer as a result of his being a director,  executive
                      officer  and   controlling   stockholder  of  Metropolitan
                      Capital and  Metropolitan  Capital III,  Inc., a director,
                      executive  officer,  and  controlling  stockholder  of  KJ
                      Advisors, Inc., and a Managing Member of BGN. In addition,
                      Jeffrey Schwarz may be deemed an indirect beneficial owner
                      of 15,000 shares held by two separate trusts,  the Schwarz
                      Family Foundation Trust and the Schwarz  Children's Trust,
                      of which certain  family  members are  beneficiaries.  Mr.
                      Schwarz disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares. Mr.
                      Schwarz  individually  and solely owns for his own account
                      38,940 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer.

         (v)          Karen  Finerman  may be  deemed  the  beneficial  owner of
                      1,101,314 shares of Common Stock which represents 16.5% of
                      the Common  Stock of the Issuer as a result of her being a
                      director and executive officer of Metropolitan  Capital, a
                      director,    executive    officer   and   stockholder   of
                      Metropolitan  Capital  III,  Inc.,  a director,  executive
                      officer, and controlling stockholder of KJ Advisors, Inc.,
                      and a  Managing  Member of BGN.  Karen  Finerman  does not
                      beneficially  own any shares of Common Stock of the Issuer
                      other than through such positions.

         Securities  Exchange  Act of  1934,  as  amended.  The  percentages  of
         ownership described above are based on 6,654,471 shares of Common Stock
