...Conservative opposition. When Diefenbaker was under attack, there were major issues at stake such as Canada's nuclear commitment to the U.S. Now the rough and tumble in the House of Commons often sounds more like a schoolyard squabble.

She laughed with them at the cleverness of an Illinois coffeehouse, called Know Where, cried with them at the tragic death of Medgar Evers, cajoled them with a traditional devil song, caught them with a hammering message of the modern devil.

As a girl whose Mona Lisa face masks the soul of a Borgia, Actress Vlady almost turns Devil into an elegant spoof of French justice. Brasseur, too, seems drolly aware that Justice is a lady...
