Though it sometimes seems a fumbling first version of 81/2, this Italian tragicomedy about a smalltime swindler (Broderick Crawford) in bishop's clothing stirs interest as the missing volume of Director Federico Fellini's "trilogy of Solitude" begun wi:h La Strada and ending in Le Notti di Cabiria...

And There Came a Man, as it will be called, is now being filmed in John's native Sotto il Monte and, says Olmi firmly, "there will be no mixing of the sacred and profane." Says Steiger, who was raised a Lutheran: "I consider this part a regeneration" Why was Greece's King Constantine, 24, who as a bachelor did his bit for the scrapyards, driving so slowly along...
