...other actors, The Marriage of Maria Braun depends for its success upon the all-pervasive influence of Schygulla. The film has already garnered prizes at this year's Berlin Film Festival to her for best actress, and to Fassbinder for best director. One waits to see how it will fare at Cannes. Clearly Schygulla makes the film. For smoking sexuality, humor, and Horatio-Algeresque pluck, this German actress has no parallel. Cybill Shepherd, take note...
...series; in London. Born in Haiphong, in what was then French Indochina, but reared in England, Ardizzone, whose style has been likened to Hogarth's and Rowlandson's, served as an official combat artist during World War II, before returning with pen and brush to less serious fare. He illustrated nearly 100 children's books; Magic Carpet, one of his best-known paintings, was reproduced by UNICEF for its collection of international Christmas cards...
...cleared only $580 million in the same period this year, and all carriers are scrambling to cut costs. TWA has laid off 2,500 employees; and United, which was grounded by a long strike last spring and is now being hurt by passengers cashing in and flying on half-fare coupons, has furloughed 195 pilots and 400 other employees.

His fare: soup and a salad with low-calorie dressing, in keeping with the diet that holds his 6-ft. 1-in. frame down to 205 Ibs., 20 Ibs. lower than last February. Dieting does not come easily. Kennedy has been known to search his staffers' desks for peanuts and crackers. Ethel Kennedy...
...film's British producer, John Heyman (The Go-Between), who comes from a Jewish background, decribes Je sus as not a conventional "movie movie" but a "translation" of the Gospel into a new medium. Jesus is not church-basement fare, however. It was produced on a sizable budget ($6 million) with a cast that includes more than 5,000 extras, and meticulous attention to authenticity. All the filming was done in the Holy Land, and a Sanhedrin of Bible scholars and other experts was consulted on costumes, sets and historical sites. The film deals frankly with the signs...
