...together again. Then sent all of you careening across the floor, pretending to be, as the voice desires, Greek vases. And this is quite a sight, you think, making your way across the floor, ducking, swirling and tossing back your head. All the very good, pretty, and smug dancers gallop about in the most unseemly fashion, looking at best like broncos or Isadora's scarves, but hardly to be praised by Keats...
...sullen. The other (Helena Kallianiotes) delivers a ten-minute broadside at "man." She hates to disclose her destination (Alaska) because "man" will go up there and make it filthy. Like Nicholson in Easy Rider, Kallianiotes knows how to establish a character swiftly and how to make a running gag gallop. When she is on, the picture is wholly hers. Perhaps it is a characteristic of the new "road" pictures. In which case, the star should have known his fate. After all, he did it first...
...become a member of the Tom Gerun band. A few years later, he joined the old Isham Jones band, and when Jones dissolved the group in 1936, Woody reorganized it as "the Band That Plays the Blues."

...sound of military drums undercuts the hunt, and we are introduced via a slow positive/negative strobe to dignified stills of the white man's armies. Indians on horseback in spectral pinks and oranges gallop to meet the U.S. Cavalry. The ensuing wars are filmed off the television screen and include one brief segment of an American GI gesturing to rows of unmarked graves. Gershfield's use of television implies an awareness that these shoddy images of Injuns stand between us and a real knowledge of how the West was Won from people who already owned the land...
...Beach took the opening kickoff and returned it 55 yards for the initial score. Unfortunately for the Crimeds. Beach had run the wrong way and the Bulldogs scored a safety. Beach roared back in the second quarter, however, to score the first Crimson touchdown with a long, 34-yard gallop. He slanted off the right tackle, broke three tackles, and scampered the remaining distance to the goal line to give the CRIMSON a 7-2 halftime edge...
