...Boston Common. After receiving many complaints from Charles St. merchants and residents, White slapped a curfew on the Common. Night after night, there were dozens of arrests. Some nights, there was violence. One of those nights, Morea got embroiled in a massive street fight, was found holding a knife when the police came, and was charged with stabbing a man whom he claims he did not stab. He faces trial in Boston next week...
...York Film Festival isn't what it used to be. Perhaps it never was. True, previous festivals did provide American debuts for some major foreign films: Poland's Knife in the Water (1963), Czechoslovakia's The Shop on Main Street (1965), Italy's The Battle of Algiers (1967).

Even at its best, Lincoln Center offered the viewer only a few diamonds in a setting of zircons...
...latest work, Samaras has in effect dismantled the reliquary. He has ranged twelve or 18 mutants of the same relic-for example, a knife-in a clear Plexiglas case, calling the group "transformations."

...would take place at a nearby encampment of Samburu warriors. Rousing his men at 4 a.m., he led them on foot through several miles of country overrun with predators. The crew arrived in time to catch the Samburus reeling into a catatonic frenzy. Then the tribal elder drew his knife. The cameraman closed in so tight that he got blood on his camera. And Bill Holden, who, as one Wolper man put it, had played it all along like "the essential Hemingway man," admitted that suddenly he grew "weak in the knees." Later, the chief's son, speaking with...
...toilet seats. And even the lesbian pass-made in this case by Italy's Rossella Falk, whose slinky version of a dope-shooting dyke is the best bit in the film. Director Robert Aldrich, who cut close to the Hollywood bone 13 years ago with The Big Knife, moved on to more forthright mayhem with What Ever Happened to Baby Jane, Hush . . . Hush Sweet Charlotte and The Dirty Dozen. Even in this company, Lylah Clare doesn't make...
