...tradition of exploiting Monroe as an erotic object and as an object of greedy curiosity. On the other hand, one may consider this book, 1980s-style, as an advance for the lot of women. We must reason that since Marylyn Monroe's body long ago entered the public domain, an enlightened feminist, such as Steinem, should hardly be prudish about reaping profit (monetary or literary) therein. It stands to reason that if men can gang-rape a woman, women can also gang-rape a woman--it's a free country...

The policy-making bodies remain the domain of a select few. Until both groups recognize the inherent rights of the student community, the Undergraduate Council will remain the anemic, ineffectual organization it is.

...actor's moment, choking himself up as he tells some bewildered children about the high point of his life, when Dorothy Gish praised one of his performances. There is a lot of good, broad comedy in Three Amigos!, notably an encounter with a singing bush that knows only public domain songs and Martin's turning an attempt to escape from a dungeon into a parody of a Nautilus workout. Under John Landis' slaphappy direction, the movie does not always bounce that wildly off the wall. But Monty Python would not entirely disown it either...
