...commercial-a hilarious sequence in which the Hertz man is catapulted out of limbo and lands everywhere but in the driver's seat. The person who does land with solid comic authority in this otherwise tiresome and familiar romp is Actress Schneider, the gemutlich Viennese sex kitten who has purred beguilingly through more pretentious trifles, such as The Victors, The Cardinal and Boccaccio '70. But Lemmon, though adroit as always, is now well along toward proving that the most gifted of farceurs cannot build a really distinguished career simply by explaining, in film after film, why he happens...

...grab-bag morality and his own vulpine profile, the supporting actors prove their worth. As Harvey's brother, Robert Walker gives the kind of performance that starts fan clubs springing up, and Girl Friend Sarah Miles, an ignis fatuus personified, fills her slattern's role with a kitten-in-the-rain charm that only the most heartless desperado could resist...

As a manic-depressive sex kitten, Carol Lynley somehow suggests that a good fortified cereal would put her back together again. McDowall and Whitman, tending the rose garden, make thorny work of it. And Actress Bacall, woefully miscast, exercises her steel-and-velvet charm as if she were running a rest home for demented Bunnies.

Hungry Mind. But far from fading away under these tribulations, Keats fought on ferociously. Though he was only 5 ft. tall, he was strong-he once whipped a butcher boy twice his size because the boy had been tormenting a kitten. Keats was, in fact, an extraordinarily tough-minded fellow, full of energy and passion, who used poetry not as an escape from life but as a way of laying hands on it. His story, revealed not only in his poetry but in perceptive and engaging letters, is a remarkable record of an extraordinarily hungry and ambitious mind feeding...
