Outside the official armistice meeting hall in Panmunjom, a bullet-riddled truck and some bloodstained clothing were put on display last week in mute testimony to North Korea's latest truce violations.

George Kennedy's recognition as best supporting actor in Cool Hand Luke was long overdue. But naming Estelle Parsons best supporting actress for Bonnie and Clyde was only quirky: hers was the least significant characterization in the movie. Though Bonnie and Clyde was nominated for ten awards, the Academy ultimately...
