...prime joys of the picture is the springwater freshness and immediacy of the lines, the lack of antiquarian culture-clogging. Especially as spoken by Olivier, the lines constantly combine the power of prose and the glory of poetry. Photographic per spectives are shallow, as in medieval paint ing. Most depths end in two-dimensional backdrops. Often as not, the brilliant Technicolor is deliberately anti-natural istic. Voice, word, gesture, human beings, their bearing and costumes retain their dramatic salience and sovereignty. The result is a new cinema style...
...swashbuckling, 50-year-old glamor boy, had more to him than the demagogical charm that caused a swoon ing woman to cry, "We want sons by Perón." More intelligent than his fellow militarists and politicians, he had noted the cracks in Argentina's feudal structure, turned them to his own ends.

By last week the U.S. had only 5,000,000 bags of green coffee beans on hand. But it was so poorly distributed that some form of rationing may yet have to be resumed, unless the subsidy brings in a flood of coffee. There seemed small chance of this...
...Rosenthal, head of the Joint Coffee Pro motion Committee and onetime coffee consultant to OPA, called the subsidy "utterly fantastic." In order to buy any coffee at all, he said, U.S. buyers have been paying as much as 3^ a pound over ceiling price by upgrading and short weigh ing - while OPA did practically nothing...
