...beautiful? "Ava Gardner, Audrey Hepburn, Sophia Loren, Brigitte Bardot, Raquel Welch." Also Madame Jovanka Tito, the wife of Yugoslavia's President. "She has an inner vitality, an inner glow, great genuine charm and a beautiful smile, but she is an enormous woman -you could sit on her chest." As to how the Taylor beauty will survive the years, the lady herself had a prediction: "I'll be a nice, cuddly, gray-haired old thing, or I'll be fat as a tub of lard, with six chins resting on my bosom." -After an exhausting day in front...

Viewed in perspective--as a compelling project Bergman had to get off his chest--The Seventh Seal can be recognized as an impressive failure. Its ostentatious images, with a couple of exceptions (the witch-burning, the flagellants), make better stills than film. But the concerns of the film find more coherent treatment elsewhere.

...Hans Stoboy and Adalbert Schaede have developed a device called a Cardiomed that monitors the working heart and tells when it is not beating at the proper rate. Not much larger than a billfold, the battery-operated gadget checks on the heart through electrodes stuck on the chest. It emits a single beep whenever the heart rate falls below a predetermined lower limit, a double beep whenever it rises above a preset ceiling. Doctors who have experimented with the device (retail price: $280) find it particularly useful for getting their cardiac patients started on post-attack exercise programs...
