...While we would have to disagree with a number of individual pronouncements in "The Unpleasant Reality," your article on East Germany [April 7], we do applaud the initiative shown by TIME in exploring this neglected topic. We agree wholeheartedly with the "Letter from the Publisher" when it says that East Germany "is in many ways a crucial area in a new Europe of growing East-West contacts" and that "less is known about it" than about "any other of Eastern Europe's Communist countries...

...they get what they want. Marat, stabbed by a spastic Charlotte Corday (Glenda Jackson), lies weltering in his tub of blood. The director of the asylum and his guests politely applaud the conclusion of the piece; but the inmates, identifying with their roles, run suddenly amuck. Fighting, biting, ripping, raping, they swarm over the guards and the guests, they leap upon the camera and drag the spectator down into the delirium of a revolution that is suddenly no longer there and then but here, now, always...
