Wall Street is wary about how ITT will fare in the future. Says Laurence Baker, who follows the company for the E.F. Hutton investment firm: "If they're going to show growth, they're going to have to fight...
...Schlesinger's movie version. In An Englishman Abroad, the 1983 BBC-TV film he directed from Alan Bennett's script, Schlesinger painted a wry, rueful portrait of the British spy--Guy Burgess, retired to Moscow--as a displaced person, isolated from his best friends and instincts. Chris Boyce (Timothy Hutton) feels isolated too, trapped in America; but here Schlesinger dares not flirt with political or visual subtlety. Everyone is an oaf but our lad.

As Jonah and his shipmates are buffeted by the tempest, the wind seems to blow from the page, and the great fish that consumes him soon turns from a monster into...

In testimony that was by turns rambling, deft and once even tearful, Redgrave, 47, argued that the cancellation of her $31,000, six-performance contract effectively blacklisted her for more than a year. The orchestra "may not be E.F. Hutton," her lawyer told the jury, "but when it talks, people listen." Redgrave testified that she was turned down for a role in a Broadway production for fear that her appearance would invite demonstrations. At one point, said the actress, who won a 1978 Oscar for her role in Julia...
