Until Sellers reenters the narrative, however, the humor lags. Mason is disgustingly lecherous enough and Sue Lyon, as a blond-haired, blue-eyed, bud-breasted adolescent, succeeds in making sensitive, intelligent Humbert become just a dirty old man. Shelley Winters, however, as Lolita's mother and Humbert's aggressive, nymphomaniacal, and pscudointellectual suitor, over-acts too much; in trying so hard to make poor Mrs. Haze an interesting character, she becomes a bit tedious and tiresome...

More than 5,000,000 Algerians last week voted for their nation's first Parliament. In the big coastal cities, a few of the 200,000 Europeans still remaining in Algeria lined up with turbaned Arabs.

Although "Les Plumes" fans out to three all-brunette coils, "Celestial Arc" works its spectral way from pale lavender on the top to ash blond at the lower level. "Flamingo" starts out peach-pink and ends up a deep gold. "It's what nature does," says Adrian. "Your trees, your flowers, your limbs, your leaves-everything's all light at the top and real dark at the bottom...

...feel when you kill a man?", Endore counterquestions, "What do you feel?"; and the cryptic answer establishes a bone-deep difference between the two men that totally belies a similarity of uniforms. John Saxon is excellent as the war lover, and Robert Redford digs beneath his own blond good looks to mine compellingly into the nature of goodness itself. While War Hunt is lean on frontline fighting, one head-punching artillery barrage that lasts perhaps three minutes of screen time stings with a combat reality few war movies achieve in hours...
