...advocated negotiation with the Viet Cong. Humphrey hinted, delicately, that he might even agree with Dzu. "What I'm saying," he declared, "is that at a negotiating table, if you're really looking for a political settlement, you really have to make some concessions." McCarthy, by contrast, said that Dzu's imprisonment "signifies Saigon's complete unwillingness to discuss, let alone accept, the only reasonable terms on which the war is likely to be settled...

Trampling out 95 yds. on 18 carries, Csonka was the key man in an astonishingly successful All-Star ground attack that gained a total of 206 yds. against the toughest defensive line in the game.

Far from stagnating in the world of commercial mystery films, Chabrol has emerged the finest new stylist in France, far superior to Truffaut (whose Bride Wore Black pales in comparison), and in many ways surpassing Godard and Resnais...
