...idiosyncratic talent that can be derided but not dismissed. Lichtenstein's works are admired for their sharp elegance, Rosenquist's for their painterly quality, Jim Dine's for their intimacy. But each seems to have settled into the styles established by his own success. The one among them who seems to have continuously moved into progressively new and different areas, blithely leaving his successes behind him, is Claes Oldenburg...
...country's history, they polluted municipal water supplies, damaged sanitation facilities and dotted the Hanoi area with myriad mud puddles. And even the smallest will do for A. aegypti-"the water in a stalk of bamboo is enough to get them going," says one authority. They are among the most urbanized agents of epidemic: they breed and live in or near human habitation and readily, even preferentially, bite man.

It harks back in some ways to the tradition of postwar Italian realism and its masters, among them Rossellini and De Sica. Yet Olmi's films seem more precise, more tightly constructed, more acute. He has a film maker's sense of composition and a novelist's sense of rhythm and construction. The plot of One Fine Day is much like an anecdote by Chekhov.
