...patroness and thrown into a prison that might give Papillon pause after he steals-and totals-her car. Indeed, his lot is even less happy than the typical inmate's at Citrus State Prison. The warden, played by hard-eyed, mean-drawling Eddie Albert, is a football freak ready to do anything to get a national championship for his semipro club, staffed by the guards. He asks Reynolds to help coach them. But the team captain is also captain of the guards, and jealous of his prerogatives. He suggests-with a few well-placed blows below the belt-that...

...Psychedelic rock crowds can be hostile collections of spacy Viet-vets still suffering from post-Viet Nam syndrome, pimply feminists in granny glasses and young high school dropouts. Bottles and firecrackers spin through the air. At a Grateful Dead concert, usually a four-or five-hour affair, the typical freak is a blend of drug hunger, male lonerism and musical knowledgeability. He will attend somnolently to the music (perhaps taking downers), then suddenly (probably after swilling a bottle of wine), sway ecstatically forward toward the performers.
