...Shams an Israeli sergeant had trouble getting the flag down off the pole. Under the gaze of Northern Command General Raphael ("Ra-ful") Eitan he shimmied up to the top of the mast while the armor, paratroop and infantry formation stood at attention, fixed the tangled halyard, and then, to the roll of a drum, brought down the Star of David. Murmured an Israeli liaison officer, "Seems we can put up flags faster than we can take them down." During the brief withdrawal ceremony, Eitan addressed the men. "This hill is a symbol both for us and for the Syrians...

...Champs-Elysées on foot, aboard motor bikes and clinging to the tops of cars. They waved the Tricolor and shouted, "Giscard à la barre! [Giscard at the helm!]." Over in the Left Bank student quarter, meanwhile, small knots of young people gathered under the watchful gaze of riot police to shout sullenly, and absurdly, "A victory for fascism!" Such were the sharply distinct reactions to longtime Finance Minister Valéry Giscard d'Estaing's knife-edge victory over Socialist Françoise Mitterrand in France's presidential runoff last week...

...know it was the whole New York City phone book." Nancy will not give up her career-yet-for Henry, but she has already had to surrender her cherished privacy. From now on, what she says and how she looks will be intensely scrutinized. The unblinking public gaze is not likely to please such a reserved woman.

Looking cool and chic in a bougainvillaea-pink pantsuit, Nancy waited on the terrace for Henry...

...OTHER aspects of the picture fit just as comfortably into this tension-releasing pattern. Michael York's D'Artagnan would be romantic and gallant in a normal film like this, but here he never gets a chance to set his chin and gaze into the horizon because the comedy keeps him too busy being wide-eyed and gulpy. The wonderful period sets, costumes and scenery (filmed in Spain, with horses and falconry and royal picnics galore) might have seemed heavy and historically meticulous except that there's always something faintly ridiculous going on, which never distracts because the plot keeps...

...country is old and proud. You finds dignity compressed in the ancient marble of a limbless torso; you gaze at the opaque eyes of a statue and know its vision penetrates eternity, and remember tales of heroes. There is suffering etched deep in the skin of an old woman's face. Even a child's eyes seem to recall the glory and struggle of centuries past. You ache to think that people so fiercely proud and persistent are being brutally trampled underfoot. For now the heels of marching boots crush a people against the hard earth of their fathers...
