...searches for means of escape, but can find none. Religion? A cardinal can only repeat banalities that have no relevance to Guido's plight. Filial loyality? His father is dead and he remembers how his selfish mother castigated him in his youth. A white-clad girl (Claudia Cardinele) tells him that she wants to bring order and cleanliness into his life; he finds her complete innocence no better than escapism. Finally he turns to thoughts of suicide (prompted by a diabolical character who springs up at his side several times during the film.) After he rejects self-destruction, he accepts...
Dapper Throngs. Melbourne's Italian-language newspaper Il Globo accused Victoria Market racketeers of all the shootings and prophesied that "the next victims will be at Muratore's funeral." At St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church, Muratore's body, clad in a Capuchin's robes, lay in a $1,575 casket with silver fittings, surrounded by floral offerings.

...Viet Cong still reign supreme in 13 of the country's 43 provinces. The Communists control half of Long An Province on Saigon's southern flank (see map). From the fifth-floor terrace bar of the city's Majestic Hotel, idlers can view both bikini-clad girls water-skiing on the Saigon River and, in the distance, puffs of smoke rising from clashes between government and Viet Cong guerrilla patrols...
