Austerity has tended to lose the fight to pizzazz. Shaker furniture makers eventually abandoned pure folk simplicity; Arts and Crafts yeomanry gave way to florid reproductions. Yet by the 1920s, both modes had been supplanted by a new phenomenon: the cult of the machine. Technology cast its spell over the national imagination, and the idea of the future became palpable...

Trapped by the constraints of a poorly fleshed out character, Harris, as Cline's husband Charlie Dick, could possibly fare even worse than does Lange in the execution of his role. Beer-guzzling, knee-slapping chauvinist Charlie would not appear to have much cult potential among today's hypersensitive post-Rambo moviegoing audiences. He certainly doesn't score too highly with wife Cline, who gave up a safe of boring first husband to plunge into the depths of eroticism with Charlie only to discover that she's not the only one keeping his bed warm at night...
