Unbridled sex appeal and bridled hobbyhorses make an unlikely scene. Yet there was Israeli Siren Dahlia Lavi, 26, playing the role of the Jewish Mother with all the smothering solicitude of Molly Goldberg. Since Son Rouven was born to her and Producer-Husband John Sullivan 20 months ago, Dahlia has been hewing to her London hearthside during film breaks and doing all those cuddly, maternal things that sloe-eyed vamps are not supposed to do. Devotees of décolletage need not worry, though; Dahlia is currently appearing in one screen steamer, Nobody Runs Forever, and has just completed another...
...your little practical joke of not showing two of Les Girls [Aug. 21], let's have the pictures of Dahlia Lavi and Catherine Spaak, or else I'll write to the S.P.C.T.S.L.G. (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Some of Les Girls). S. KARNI Albuquerque...
...Berger, 23, a former student at the Max Reinhardt Institute in Vienna, who played hooky from school to do a tiny bit in The Journey with Deborah Kerr and Yul Brynner, went on to play in The Victors, and stars with Charlton Heston in Major Dundee.

But when the actor shows a real flair for directing, the invalid flies into a snit, accuses him of "stealing my picture," orders him thrown off the set, smears...
...dead husband's stepbrother, a slim, sardonic man with a tomcat's morals and the face of a ''boy film-star." The end is total humiliation for Rita. Women, generally, have a bad time. Our Bovary tells of Sonia Smith, who looks like a dahlia, "large, top-heavy, gorgeous," and who gets satisfaction neither from her small husband nor her stiflingly small home town. South African Author Gordimer, 35, who is a tiny, finely made woman herself, often seems appalled by the size and beefiness of her fellow countrymen-matrons with "goose-fleshed, quaking red arms...
