...Philharmonic Hall screening revealed that the judges chose technical proficiency over imagination. Going To Work In The Morning From Brooklyn (Philip Messina) shows that they know what a point-of-view shot is over there at NYU and that they can shoot in subways and make a second story window look like the forty-seventh floor, but the film itself just isn't there over-and-above its elementary expertise. The winning cartoon, Marcello, I'm So Bored (John Milius; University of Southern California) tritely surveys familiar ground (wicked old Southern California) in Disneylike animation, drawings, and for the piece...

"A new current of love must turn enemies into friends, strangers into brothers," he said.

...their victim, a young truck driver, was taken from Connecticut to New Jersey and tied to a tree (he suffered rope burns). The lawyers argued that since the death penalty could only be imposed by a jury, the defendants were being made to risk a harsher punishment if they chose jury trial; by pleading guilty or by asking to be tried by a judge alone, they would not face death. Speaking for a 6-2 majority, Justice Potter Stewart found the argument persuasive. "The inevitable effect," he wrote, "is, of course, to discourage assertion of the Fifth Amendment right...
