...handsomely over the clunky platform shoes that are so popular today. They are palazzo pants-wide-legged trousers that fit tightly at the hips but swell to bell-bottoms as much as five feet in circumference. The flowing material is often draped so widely that from a distance the eye cannot distinguish between a woman in a long gown and a woman in palazzos. Says Irene Satz, of Manhattan's Ohrbach's department store: "They don't look like pants, but they...

...throughout the Navajo territory. Traders supplied German-made Saxony yarns and synthetic dyes, and the Indians developed a series of new designs in which intense colors were juxtaposed against one another. The primary motif became a radiating diamond pattern of such bright colors that the blankets were called "eye-dazzlers." Pictorial representations-figures of horses and cows, bows and arrows, houses and trains-also came into fairly general use, thus breaking the long tradition of pure abstraction...

...movie has several excellent scenes, most prominently an attempted bank robbery staged with deadly precision, and fine performances by Scott and Keach, much more effective here than in Fat City. Smaller roles have been cast with a fine eye for character detail.
