...male is constantly forced to prove his aggressive masculinity by a compelling phenomenon called machismo. In its simplest form, machismo is the gaudy bravado of the bullfighter, the outdoor he-manliness of the gaucho, the straightforward heterosexuality of the playboy. "The kind of man that men follow and women chase" is how one Peruvian woman defines it. But the trait goes farther than simple male ego. It turns arguments into blood feuds, business dealings into tests of strength, and heroic revolutionaries into ruthless tyrants. Says the Mexican poet Octavio Paz: "One word sums up the aggressiveness, insensitivity, invulnerability and other...
...operates the public address system, lights and fire alarms and monitors the 1,800-car garage; whenever the carbon monoxide gets too strong, Honeywell's Data Center automatically turns on exhaust fans.

Britain's Ken Hughes, who directed the picture and wrote its script, keeps Sammy running fast and running wild-his film falls flat on its face at the finish but in its maddest moments generates the glorious ungartered go of a Charlie Chase chase. What's more, Cameraman Wolfgang Suschitzky supplies some hilariously horrible glimpses of the crummy comether that passes for Sohociety. And Actor Newley (who can also be seen in Broadway's Stop the World-I Want to Get Off) is a wickedly sly young comedian who keeps the customers...
...Labor Department announced last week that an alltime high of 70.9 million Americans had jobs in July (and unemployment dropped seasonally by 500,000, to 4,300,000). But the Chase Manhattan Bank added a relevant foot note: more civilians than ever are working for the nation's biggest employer, government...
