...with, on an inflammatory imprecision, the polemics of overkill. Hitler's holocaust remains the century's central metaphor of evil. Throughout the '60s, by a process of escalating outrage, the device debased what was left of political dialogue. Radicals painted "Amerika" on campus walls. Police were "fascist pigs." Women's Lib's Gloria Steinem even took up the cry recently, claiming that a female reading Playboy must experience the same revulsion that a Jew would feel encountering a Nazi manual. Meantime, ideologues on the other side professed to see Brownshirts in the bearded radicals...
...invaders were members of the Ustaše, a fascist organization that had ruled Croatia under Hitler during World War II, and has agitated from abroad for Croatian secession ever since (TIME, June 5). The raiders were believed to have been recruited from right-wing Croats now living in Western Europe and Australia.

It is all closed inside." In the moody, half-toned study of an aristocratic Jewish family in Fascist Italy, Dominique played the sheltered, unworldly daughter. In The Conformist, another brilliant film about the same era, she was the lesbian wife of an anti-Fascist exile. In her newest movie, John Frankenheimefs Impossible Object, currently being shot in France, she plays a woman obsessed by an adulterous affair with...
