...excessive doses it produces a euphoric high, which he says, "makes it attractive as a drug of abuse. This is tantamount to legalized dope." Further, said Wolfe, Darvon-related deaths in the U.S. have been increasing, rising in major cities to about 600 last year and making the compound "the deadliest prescription drug in the United States." Eli Lilly and Co., of Indianapolis, the principal manufacturer, promptly branded Wolfe's charges "irresponsible and clearly not supported by the facts...

Dylan both mocked and gloried in his informal ordination as a generation's prophet. Young, fully as ambitious in his music, kept closer to the ground than Dylan and sneaked into rock...
...compound the confusion, the straight "real-life scenes are visually indistinguishable from Heramn's fantasy sequences, sharing the same Art Deco sets, overly-dramatic cuts and music. Some of the scenes have a gauzy quality that suggest fantasy, but a few of these seem to be "real-life...
