While posing for photographers in Chiswick, England, the happy couple gazed fondly down on their newborn son Carlo. But the mother, Actress Vanessa Redgrave, made it clear that there was one thing the future did not include: her marriage to the boy's father, Italian Actor Franco Nero. The free-spirited star of The Loves of Isadora had said, when she announced her pregnancy in April, that she had no plans to marry Nero ("I don't think marriage would make me a very nice person to live with").

...Colonial has opened with a David Merrick tryout, The Penny Wars, written by Elliott Baker and directed by a beautiful actress-comedian named Barbara Harris. Two fine actors, George Voskovec and Kim Hunter, head the cast-but the Boston notices and rampant trade gossip indicate the show is in serious pre-Broadway trouble...

For a week, brightly colored tents had dotted...

This time, unfortunately, she has broken the narrative rules she seemed to have mastered in the first book. She picks up two of her best characters, Actress Julia Homburg and Newspaper Editor Georg Kerenyi. But as if no longer trusting them to carry the story, she has invented a tepid narrator, a British security officer named Robert Inglis, and laid on a mystery-writer's plot that turns out to be a fictional version of Donald...
