THROUGHOUT the rest of the film. the filmmakers attempt to communicate through fragments their own divided view of Hopper. The most obvious facet they have seized on is Hopper as acid-consciousness-extender and anti-Establishment paragon. Thus, we are given Hopper with two young maidens in a bathtub daring the camera to record the first graphic fellatio in the American cinema; also (somewhat anti-climatically), Hopper walking naked through the streets of. Los Alamos. But more interesting is Hopper's relationship to his work. We see him watching a sequence of his new film. The Last Movie: within...

As he confided to friends, the new job will give him a chance to build more financial security and add a new facet to his many-sided experience in the securities business.

As Sommer put it: "The soldier limps and lags behind society. He is in a dismal state. Propping up the morale of the army is not so much a question of pay as of living conditions and schooling." Last week the results of Sommer's study, in the form of a 211-page White Book, were debated in the Bundestag. The report discusses everything from weapons development to whether recruits should...
