...battling over ancestral property. Williams is polishing a comedy about the impact of a flood on a family in the Mississippi Delta; his working title is Kingdom of Earth. Meanwhile, the prolific Edward Albee will appear for the fourth straight season with an Americanization of Giles Cooper's Lon don suburban comedy, Everything in the Garden...

Fortunately for the film, even the small roles are in the hands of some of the oldest pros in the business-among them Edgar Buchanan as a Government man and Lon Chancy as a bartender.

Moments later, a Medevac chopper was downed-the ninth helicopter to fall in as many minutes...
With such anti-Establishmentarian overtones, it could almost have been an international congress of anarchists. It was merely part of the week-long "Destruction in Art Symposium," a festival of happenings being staged across Lon don by 40-odd (some very odd) artists from ten countries. The symposium was dedicated to the sobering proposition that "society will ignore the manifestation of destruction in art at its peril...
