Unless the eye is deceived by the camera, the Great Barrington barn pictured [July 7] is none other than the arts center at Simon's Rock, a fine and so far unique Early College (it offers classes for high school juniors through college sophomores...
...problem was the only real mishap in a nearly perfect double exercise. Leaving behind the orbiting Apollo after their 44-hour handclasp in the sky, Soyuz earlier in the week came to a near bull's-eye touchdown on a dusty Kazakhstan plain, ending what Soyuz Commander Aleksei Leonov in his colloquial English said was a flight that seemed to go "as smooth as a peeled egg." The Kremlin promptly hailed the joint mission with yet another barrage of pronouncements. Exulted Izvestia: SUCCESS IN OUTER SPACE FOR PEACE. The Russians had more reason to crow. At week...

The rest of the movie is comprised of situations as familiar as the characters: the car-run-off-the-road scene; the private-eye-being-rousted-by-the-local-fuzz scene (cop weighing eye's fire arm: "You got a license for this thing?"); and the final, unpersuasive unearthing-of-the-dark-family-secret scene. The dialogue is also obligatory, right down to the girl's wistful line, "You're not such a tough...
