...party faction. "I'm just a Republican," he said, "and, by golly, anyone who is a Republican is a Republican, as far as I'm concerned." Because it was not ever thus, Goldwater fans greeted Romney in Phoenix with signs reading ROMNEY WOULD RATHER SWITCH THAN FIGHT and REAGAN FOR PRESIDENT. Goldwater, who was conveniently in Washington, said there that he still had not forgiven Romney for his 1964 defection.

More seriously, Hunter is not always successful in staging the actions he photographs. The clumsiness of the amateur actors in the several fight scenes betray the excellent cinemastic ideas which inspired them. Too often, Lerner's delayed reactions suggest a bored actor. And in several sequences, Miss Anschuetz looks like a very beautiful child twisting her features to burlesque a temptress. The best major performance, I think, comes from Erica Ivers...
