...skillful interplay between distant memory and recent reflection upon it, Author Scott makes clear that Conway the man has become as predictably modern as Conway the boy was dutifully post-Victorian. He has long since rejected not only his icy. withdrawn father but Mother India as well...
...Hunt is an astringent, understated film in which the subtle interplay of surface and substance produces an ambiguity of multiple meanings. The company commander, for example, regards Endore as "a valuable man," and deliberately blinds himself to the fearsome core of Endore's nature. The C.O. is the perfect portrait of the manipulator of means who forgets ends and comes to accept the terms of war as the norm of existence.

In five years, Betty grew only four inches. Off cortisone for a while, she grew five more, but after that she seemed condemned to live out her life...

He painted on commission The Shooting Company of Captain Frans Banning Cocq (better known as The Night Watch), in which he infuriated many of the patrons by hiding them in his brilliant interplay of shadows. After that, Rembrandt was to know bankruptcy and the death of one loved one after another, including his only son. The years of tragedy were upon...
