...Bogart is holding both the guns and his liquor, and maybe it is because Ingrid Bergman is the woman. At any rate, Casablanca is outstanding. Few people wear a trench coat or a frown as well as Bogie and no one can rival Ingrid in looking wistful in the fog...
...closing pages of this novel, the nameless hero stands at the entrance of his room, compulsively clicking the light switch on and off. To his dread, he knows the light is working; yet no glimmer cuts the dense black fog before his eyes; he has gone completely blind. Danish Author Karl Bjarnhof, 61, has an un nerving intimacy with this scene and subject, for, at the age of 19, he lost his sight.

...profit sharing, health insurance, hours and pay of his some 5.000 employees, even inspects the food served in the company cafeteria. When he rejects something, he is liable to do it without giving reasons, says only that his decisions come from "the vapor of experience." Out of this fog has come an almost uninterrupted string of correct answers on what cards the fickle U.S. public will buy. "I have a hard time explaining why." says Hall. "But I know-there's something in the past years that's telling...
