...short existence as a major producer, MCA has made an impressive number of profitable pictures. Father Goose, Gary Grant's new one, is doing well at Radio City Music Hall. Freud, Cape Fear, To Kill a Mockingbird, Pillow Talk, That Touch of Mink, Operation Petticoat, Spartacus, The Chalk Garden and Charade are all MCA-Universal movies too. The company's next major release will be Strange Bedfellows...
...Five Rules. Buddha was the rare mystic able to chalk out clearly to others the signposts leading out of reality, in the form of easily remembered shorthand formulas.

Sidney Blackmer, who played the defense attorney in A Case of Libel, was an effective Underwood, and Victor Jory was full of smoke and chalk, manning the blackboards as Underwood's campaign manager. But best of all, the Underwood program gave a beaded-forehead impression of oldtime political conventions, with 103 ballots and whispered threats in hot hotel rooms. Ironically, it was good television about the good old days before political conventions were ruined by television...
