Garrison promised to name names, make arrests and get convictions. He did just that-or at least he began. He arrested Clay Shaw, a retired bachelor businessman well known at several levels of New Orleans society, high and low. Shaw, Garrison said, was really one Clay Bertrand, whose name cropped up in the Warren Report. As Bertrand, he said, Shaw had met with three men, including one Leon Oswald, and conspired to kill President Kennedy...
...Colombo carries out the same principle by furnishing his interior with blocklike boxes that can be interchanged and attached to each other by magnets. Each box in Colombo's "mono-home" is multipurpose, can serve to house a TV or to store kitchen utensils. "A bachelor buys some of these pieces for his home," Colombo explains. "He marries and he adds more pieces; he has children and he adds more pieces-it goes upward, sideways, inward and downward." An unexpected guest arrives?

Under his low-keyed, meticulous direction, all the murdered men give subtle performances that would do credit to Giraudoux. Out standing is Michel Bouquet, pathetic yet loathsome as a pawky, balding bachelor who cannot believe his good fortune when a mysterious beauty comes to his shabby room with a bottle of strange-tasting liqueur. Scarcely less memorable is Charles Denner, a painter who poses Moreau as Diana the Huntress and gets an arrow in the back. Or Claude Rich as a womanizer...
