...main argument against building big churches is that the money spent buying stone might better be used buying bread for the poor. "For every dollar that goes into a church building, a dollar should go to feed starving children," says Presbyterian Minister Robert Hudnut of Wayzata, a Minneapolis suburb, who believes that all new churches should reflect "humility and economy." Rochester's innovation-minded Catholic Bishop Fulton J. Sheen (see PEOPLE) feels much the same way; up to 3% of the value of every parish construction project must be paid to Sheen's office in the form...

...wedding is uncomfortably close to Morgan. The editing features tricky sound overlaps from one scene to another and quick jump cuts from faces to bodies and back again, yet never consistently settles on a style. There is even a disappointing touch of TV situation comedy. A domestic argument ends with the toast popping out of the toaster, a visit to the zoo features the inevitable cute chimp mugging in its cage...
