...Diario 16, and a host of snappy magazines like Interviu and Opinion. Theatergoers have been able to see hitherto forbidden plays by Federico Garcia Lorca and Bertolt Brecht. Moviegoers have flocked to such films as Songs for After a War, a documentary on the Franco era, Carlos Saura's Cousin Angelica, a thoughtful flashback to civil war divisions, and Charlie Chaplin's The Great Dictator...
Since no unchallenged will was found immediately after Hughes' death, his cousin William Rice Lummis was appointed temporary co-adrninistrator of the estate, while local law firms handle Hughes affairs in the four geographical areas where his assets are concentrated. But three weeks after his death, a so-called Mormon will mysteriously turned up at a church office building in Salt Lake City, making bequests to the Mormons, various worthy institutions and a gas-station attendant, Melvin Dummar. It also named Hughes' estranged aide Noah Dietrich as executor. Trial on the authenticity of the will is scheduled...

The partners took over a money-losing coal company and started acquiring leases on vast carboniferous acreage. When coal prices soared in the wake of the 1973 Arab oil embargo, Burford struck it rich. He struck it even richer last...

Cria! is a dark and melodramatic comedy, highly original in plot, about how a child misperceives her actions and their consequences in the adult world. Cousin Angelica, though more stylistically unconventional, is a rather ordinary story about an adult attempting to refine and correct the memories of childhood. Cria! is an almost entirely successful work, while the other, earlier film must be regarded as an honorable failure...
