What really sold me though was the halftime film they showed about the school. The television said that Henry Kissinger had gone there and then they showed this Harvard Yard just before a graduation, with luscious green grass and hot sun filtering through the trees. I knew it was the only place...
...memory of dream." Santana was born in Mexico, and his early musical efforts fused the sound of Latin America, Afro-Cuba and basic blues rhythm into a style that dazzled flower-powered San Francisco in 1967 at the debut of his band. They rivaled even the most luscious psychedelia of the time with their low key vocals and cosmic instrumentals.

But of course de Broca lets the foible-ridden writer get the shy student in the end. And while the whole spy-spook idea may be too worn to make this into another sleeper a la King of Hearts, this...
