This kind of film is very hard to pull off, since a few moments of excess and we are trapped in an atmosphere as pretentious as the one being chide. Thankfully, Agnes Varda's style is clear and elegant, perfect for the balance necessary to make Les Creatures work. Her frames are clear and simple and her cutting so clean that the most outlandish of sequences (an indescribable interrupted eating scene) seems logical...

...your "People-Smuggling" story [Jan. 31], you chide these fellows for carrying on a "strictly commercial venture." In 1953 such a profiteering fellow led me and five others across the Austro-Hungarian border; the risks were fantastic and he collected a well-deserved $1,000 for each of us after doing an excellent and very unemotional job of it.

Yet for all the noise they make, so far, at least, the critics on both sides have been heavily outnumbered by the millions of Americans in the middle who, however confused or unhappy about the war, see no simple alternative to the Johnson Administration's present course and have no medium for their views. Last week the majority found a new voice...

...plants running at a slack 85% of capacity (v. last year's 91% peak), they also suspect business of using any pretext to raise prices in order to reap a windfall of earnings as the economy picks up. Reflecting this root distrust, Ackley recently took special pains to chide the rubber industry for following a strike-forced labor settlement that was "clearly out of line" with price hikes "even greater than the added costs of the wage agreement...
