...there, and Attorney General John Mitchell and his wife have just bought a $325,000 duplex in the building, which Washington Post Columnist Maxine Cheshire says will probably be "the most expensive and spectacular in the Nixon Administration." The Blounts are thinking of living at Watergate; so are Emil ("Bus") Mosbacher, who will be Chief of Protocol, and Nixon's longtime personal secretary, Rose Mary Woods. Also in northwest Washington will be the Romneys, at the Shoreham West apartments. George Romney's office is too close to permit his customary four-mile morning jog, but the new Secretary...
...take place in the future, where some parents order a girl from the child supplying centre, but they get a boy instead, and won't accept the fact that the child suppliers made a mistake. The song is sung by their child. All the songs tells a story. "Magic Bus" is about a man who takes a bus to see his girl every day, and decides to buy it.

If we know how to read the content of Preminger's images, Skidoo is often scary, often moving (an LSD sequence is surprisingly effective, given Preminger's initially...
...complicity of the audience, which is expected to accept the performance at its face rather than at its true value. In considerate society, the audience seldom lets the performer down-in part, as Goffman repeatedly notes, because the roles of performer and audience interlock. A man rushing for the bus dons a sheepish smile to indicate his awareness of how silly he looks. His observers reward his performance-that is, the smile-by smiling sympathetically back. With this response, they become performers, and the bus chaser becomes the audience...
