...aspiring young French actress like Geneviève Gilles, 20, would ordinarily be lost in that flashy crowd. But Geneviève arrived on the arm of Darryl F. Zanuck, 66, who has promoted the careers of such stars as Bella Darvi, Juliette Greco and Irina Demick. And Zanuck has already made Geneviève something of a star. He directed the 23-minute short, The World of Fashion, that preceded Flea on the program, and Geneviève was the film's only performer. That may not be much of a step up the movie ladder but with...

Again the pin-up role is assigned to Irina Demick, described unpersuasively as "a girl who blows up bridges" for the French Resistance. When the Allies throng ashore, Irina and a doughty band of villagers who have sallied forth as a welcoming committee are being held hostage by the Germans. The G.I.s who liberate them include wry-smiling Sergeant Cliff Robertson and the inevitable New York Jewish joker (Red Buttons) assigned to all units for comedy relief. Since the village is under siege, Cliff is ordered...
