...Mexico, it soon becomes apparent, nothing succeeds like excess. Color not only decorates, but explodes, whether in specially planted flowerbeds or in the elaborate symbol and color-coding system that the Mexicans have devised to guide tourists to the games. All that a person going to the basketball games in the Sports Palace has to do is hail a cab bearing the basketball symbol or follow the green lampposts. To Mexico City's normal generous supply of 20,000 taxis, 3,400 special volunteer cars have been added, all color-coded to designate their destination...
...News, Va. In Cincinnati, he tried off and on for years to join the local-in vain. The union said he had to get work before he could be a member; the employers said he could not work without a union card. Last month, in a direct attack on color barriers in trade unions, a U.S. district court found that the local had violated not only the 1964 Civil Rights Act but also a 102-year-old post-Civil War statute that was only recently invoked by the Supreme Court to bar bias in housing. Following up his 86-page...
...training and finances, the simpler films seem to be more successful. Two time-lapse films, one done by Derek Lamb's class and Robert Gardner's, illustrate the point.

But Gardner's materials are a bit out of control. He leaves Calder mumbling inaudible marvelous-old-man-isms, as if through a weird orange filter, while Lamb's House Moving is taut and simple...
...more practical matters, let the record show that this reviewer found both movies atrociously filmed in ugly color, edited with the precision of a two-year-old turned loose with a jar of peanut butter, and inadequately acted by teen-agers who plainly considered themselves better than the people they were portraying. Brooke Bundy, the pretty blonde in Young Runaways, appears to have too many teeth, and Leigh Taylor-Young, the pretty blonde in I Love You, Alice B. Toklas, learnt her eight lines and spoke them with something approaching conviction...
...Taming of the Shrew, starring the Burtons, Zeffirelli dazzles the eye with a virtuoso use of color. His camera is a Renaissance palette. Courtiers stride by in the muted gold and crimsons of Piero della Francesca; cobblestones and horsemen diminish into the serene infinities of Uccello. Visually, Shakespeare has never been better realized-and seldom has he had so sensitive a collaborator...
