After hearing of Somerset's death, Northumberland nestles back into his chair and with an admirable coolness, casually inquires...
...plot, like Kabuki, has become stylized. Boy with zits and chutzpah lusts after girl with good complexion. Girl becomes infatuated with Vitalis man, who is dumb but fulfills basic elements of the Eisenhowerera American dream...
