...other hand, Paul's revelations didn't reveal anything probability couldn't: I'll have two children, one smart; my career will be intellectual-ish; and my libido is on an accelerating upswing. Nothing I couldn't have told you. But Paul's foresight wasn't entirely banal. He told me how to spot Murderer's Thumb--broad at the knuckle, narrow at the top. A statistically significant proportion of death row inmates have it. He also tried to justify his art by citing its genetic basis: apparently 60 percent of babies born with a simial line (when the intellect...
Epstein's Tartuffe is equally fantastic. With amazing energy, Epstein plays up Tartuffe's wry sleaziness and brilliant dishonesty. His bursting libido and utterly unbelievable self-flagellation are comedy over three centuries old, but they still seem fresh in Epstein's hands.

He's behaved himself but, in his budding desire for Sydney, hopes the nation might not mind if the President goes on a date...

The movie was immediately banned in the home country of the Italian director, Bernardo Bertolucci, for being "obscene, indecent, and catering to the lowest instincts of libido." But because of Brando's talent and, of course, the sex, the film was a world-wide hit, despite one near-rape scene and the subjecting of the female interest (Maria Schneider) to various sexual whims. The sex scenes are all the more shocking for their lack of emotion and their...
