Anastasia is walking down the street. Short bright shift, legs, thighs, a swing and a rhythm to her step. Men turn after her. Cars slide between her and the camera. Even without the music it would be fascinating. With the brazen beat and the salacious lyrics, it becomes a walk on the wild side, a joy to see. You sit there, watching the girl, all the motion and color, in the groove with the sound. Stop the music! No more orange electronic notes to swell the picture. No more foot-tapping in the aisles. But the camera lingers on that...
...that music is our best approximation. No, this dialogue merely suggests the too easily forgotten gap between what a person says and what he is. Nothing Anastasia could say would do credit to her presence; thankfully, she says nothing. She is addressed once, but the response comes from a brazen woman with several millions and the freedom of socialites in her honey-raucous voice. Clearly the voice does not belong to Anastasia. Hunter may be suggesting a parallel between Hip and High Society (the connections are not so slim, Jim, but there is no space to make them here...

As that prospect dimmed in the face of Southern success and stagnation in the North, Kim switched from talking about "peaceful" reunification and declared: "We must accomplish the South Korean revolution and unify the fatherland in our generation."

From its subversion camps, it dispatched 31 North Korean agents into the South in a meticulously planned attempt to assassinate South Korean President Chung Hee Park. Their orders: make their way into the Blue House residence of the President in Seoul, cut off Park's head and pitch it into the street. The attack marked the first time since the Korean armistice in 1953 that a large number of North Korean terrorists had had the audacity...
...refugee burden and, to its everlasting discredit, came out with much of its military armor untarnished by combat. With hardly a pause, the Syrians thus took up their prewar belligerence right where they had left off. If anything, the Baathist Party members who rule the country have become more brazen; even Egypt's Nasser cannot match them for extremism. They have not only cut themselves off completely from the West but are increasingly isolating themselves from other Arab nations, and even from their own people...
