...particularly harsh rebuke, the Central Committee passed a vote of no confidence against one of Milosevic's allies, Politburo member Dusan Skrebic. It also accepted the resignations of four of the 14 Politburo members. But | what may have distressed Yugoslavs most was the Central Committee's failure to address the disastrous meddling of party apparatchiks in the country's economy -- a subject on which Milosevic has campaigned with marked success. While Yugoslavia's $21 billion debt worries Western bankers, its citizens have watched their standard of living decline steadily. Heating bills often consume half an average monthly income of less...

...Dusan Makavejev, the film maker who Went Too Far with his anarchist collages W.R.: Mysteries of the Organism and Sweet Movie, has run for cover to Sweden and emerged with this shaggy act of atonement. It is not his fault that he was seven years between pictures, or that his new one seems almost (Gasp!) normal in its story of yet one more mad housewife: Susan Anspach finds fear, loathing, debasement-in short, liberation-when she joins a carnal carnival of Slavic immigrants. Montenegro is a Laurel-and-Hardy jalopy of a film, putting along impudently and then suddenly stalling...
