...spoiled mother. With minor changes of script, Two Daughters could have been made in rural Louisiana. The Third Lover. Equally understandable is Claude Chabrol's latest film, a chilling story about a self-centered young man whose envy drives him to ruin the happiness of a couple who befriend him. Chabrol, who launched the French New Wave, proves that with honest camera work and well-motivated plot films may be excitingly nouvelle without being murkily vague. Fiasco in Milan. This one takes up where Big Deal on Madonna Street leaves off, with Comic Carlo Pisacane trying desperately to keep...

He is as wary as a porcupine and just about as tactful. In odd moments of disarming color-blind candor, Sherman and Jester are as glowingly close...
...Vellucci does not hate Harvard. In fact, the out-spoken City Councilor from East Cambridge thinks it's a pretty good thing. Like those Cubans who would like to befriend the Norteamericanos, but strongly dislike the policies of the "Yankee government," Vellucci respects the University, but not the Massachusetts Hall approach to Cambridge problems: "I don't think there is anything wrong with Harvard University. It is something we like we talk about when we are out of state, or when we drive through with out-of-staters. There is a fine student body--the best in the world...
