...always strove to prove that "man's humanity to man is far greater than his inhumanity to man." Then, after a film clip melange predictably slapped together by Peter boy-do-I-know-films Bogdanovich. Chaplin emerged from the same stage cockpit as the first gargantuan statue which Joel Grey had serenaded with an ode to the studios in the opening number...
...business-even so stratospheric a celebrity as Chaplin-and there comes an evening of the long knives. For Chaplin it came early and never seemed to lighten. After a series of affairs with leading, supporting, featured, walk-on and crowd-scene actresses, Chaplin took up with the adolescent Lita Grey. A relative of Lita's had news for her paramour: in California, dallying with a minor was statutory rape. Charlie and Lita were married in November 1924. She was his second teen-age bride. Three years later the Chaplins were divorced after loud litigation. The American public booed...
...VOLUME of mash-notes couldn't hold sufficient praise for the wonders Coppola's worked with his actors.

Many things to many people in "Something for Everyone." A few might remember...
...York moves have spurred legal action in other states. The Massachusetts attorney general has started an investigation of term-paper mills. California's State Colleges Chief Counsel Richard Grey has prepared legislation aimed at putting them out of business. At Harvard, General Counsel Daniel Steiner is considering suits against all term-paper companies for breaching "an implicit educational contract" between colleges and students...
