...Carefree citizens enjoy a top-hole golf course, shops, airport and an "International Restaurant" whose seven dining rooms are each decorated in a different geographical style but serve the same food. Last December saw the ceremonial opening of the $2.5 million Carefree Inn: rooms, $24 to $85 a night. Like Jamaica's Round Hill and Antigua's Mill Reef Club, the hotel rents private houses to visitors when their owners are not in residence...
Egon Zimmermann, 23, never took a skiing lesson in his life. Born in the Tyrolean resort of Lech am Arlberg, he picked up free pointers by watching rich tourists practice stem Christies on the slopes around the Zimmermann family inn. Packed off to Paris' ritzy Ledoyen restaurant at 15 to learn the art of French cooking, Egon showed a fine flair for mousse-making-whenever he could be persuaded to come in out of the snow.

Characters are fondly committed to memory: Finney as Tom, Hugh Griffith as Squire Western, Joyce Redman as Mrs. Waters. Tom Jones is an enthusiastic movie, and its enthusiasm is infectious. Sour souls who claim it is overrated have been shouted down...
...countless parlors and other rooms, and O'Hara appears at home in every one of them. One story, for example, begins with a woman's life summed up in 30 years of exchanged Christmas cards. An elderly couple's annual return to a fancy country inn where they have stayed for years becomes an almost unbearable look at the effects of growing...
