...brother Alberto (Helmut Berger). Among their guests are Giorgio (Lino Capolicchio), a childhood friend, and Malnate (Fabio Testi), a gentile visitor from Milan. Wrinkling her nose at Malnate's Fascist predilection for the workers of Ferrara, Micol returns his appraising once-over with "you're too much the industrious Lombard--besides, you're too hairy." Next to Malnate's animality, De Sica's aristocratic Jews are the ultimate wish-fulfillments to any Hitlerian dream of the perfect Aryan. Tall and fair-haired, they appear the descendents of some Nordic race, rather than the inheritors of a religion born...

Last week her work as Major "Hot Lips" Houlihan in the heretical M*A*S*H won her a nomination for an Academy Award...
...Carnegie Hall. The Evy before us might be a suburban housewife in a severe funk. Stapleton's hysteria is totally convincing, though she speaks in a peculiarly strident and monotonous voice. The unfailingly attractive Betsy von Furstenberg seems to be reciting her lines rather than delivering them. Lombard is most felicitously cast as the homosexual actor and is uncannily reminiscent of James Coco in Last of the Red Hot Lovers...
