Tony Rome is the most synthetically slick movie since Goldfinger, and affords a point-by-point lesson in how to write dialogue that is neither credible nor cool...
Within minutes a team of firemen was on the scene. After some confusion about the source of the smoke, the firemen climbed through the third story window of H-34 and tore down the fire door 'eading to H-33. Brandishing gas masks, fire axes, and two hoses, they soon had the blaze under control...
