...Mets are definitely one team that gained over the winter. At long last, that deadwood centerfielder Willie Mays decided to hand-em up for the benefit of both Yogi Berra and his jealous teammates.

But she was older, more rigid and more jealous of writing talent. There began to be in her a shadow of Proust's tyrannical salonkeeper Mme. Verdurin. Any small slight to Gertrude, even an appearance at a party in someone else's salon, was enough to send Alice to the phone with the cutoff call...

...mature way: not to impress the viewer in David Lean style, but to pace the film so as to create an impression as strongly intellectual as it is visual. In A Drama of Jealousy (and other things), Marcello is back in a more familiar role as a jealous husband. This film was originally titled The Pizza Triangle...
