On Winter Carnival (1939), a fictionalizing of the annual Dartmouth frolic, his co writer was F. Scott Fitzgerald, cadging for jobs in California after the drying up of his first...

"Our first big action will be negotiating a [leftist] majority," proclaimed Europe Ecologie official Daniel Cohn-Bendit - the Franco-German ecologist who first gained fame as the iconic leader of radical students during France's May 1968 uprising before becoming a moving force in the European Parliament.
