FORTY CARATS, a French comedy of new marital modes and manners, is just the evening to drive away the day's tribulations. Julie Harris is a matron who falls for a 22-year-old lad while a wealthy widower woos her 18-year-old daughter, proving that love is a game for all seasons...
Unfortunately, it takes 40,000 cans to make a ton-quite a labor of love for anyone who hopes to collect $200 from Reynolds. Meantime, Americans are tossing out 500,000 tons of refuse each year, and dumping room is getting scarce. Beyond the Reynolds gesture, what can be done...

Old Helen Trombley, the town hypochondriac, could be counting her twinges to old Vebber Stevens at the pig farm. Elizabeth Rust, who truly loves her husband, might be making love to Jimmy Clancy at the motel. Down by the quarry, Kenneth Borgstrom, a schoolboy, might be making love to Eunice Dewsnap, a nurse. And Tony DiLuzio, teen-age Lothario, might be making love to just about anybody just about anywhere...
