...stepped back to appraise a statue of King Tutankhamen. Dramatized by artfully concealed spotlights and projectors were copies of treasures from four of the Louvre's main sections: French Medieval, Egyptian, Ancient Oriental and Greco-Roman. It was a sight to glad den any ordinary rider's eye, and even more pleased was the man behind the-innovation. He is André Malraux, Minister of Culture, and his efforts to re furbish the famed museum itself have been nicely complemented by the un derground mini-Louvre. On a private inspection tour, he told a friend: "Art must...
Cotzias has his eye on a more remote and desirable goal than the treatment of a single disease, even such a common crippler as Parkinson's.

Remember that they do not know of the witch in their presence. Only Mark suspects--and finally discovers. Once, before the clock time of the movie, he lost a girl. (In the movie, she appears twice to his mind's eye.) Someone poisoned her, and when she left the hospital, she did not need him. His present girl, Elizabeth, came to him after her own poison trip. Very symmetrical, what? Mark uses both the past and the present caper to triangulate Diane Tremayne. Potions? Acid? Who is to judge the medium? "I made her see her soul," says the witch...
