...emphasize their point, the directors use the camera as the eyes of Tono Britko. We view the world through a rum glass as Britko dances in a drunken stupor and we awake with him the next morning to find the camera turned upside down.

About two o'clock yesterday afternoon it occured to me I was going to get to be the first person to call a Pudding show camp. The thought was dizzying.
