Boulanger refrained from repeating her response to a similar comment when she led the Boston Symphony in 1938: "I have been a woman for a little over 50 years and have gotten over my initial astonishment...
...wildly disparate group of people, traveling the Mediterranean on a cruise ship called Europa, disembark in Crete to explore a labyrinth advertised as the mythic one of the fabled Minotaur. There is a lady missionary, a male medium, an archaeologist, an artist, a young girl clerk, and a jolly middle-aged couple who won the trip as a prize in a newspaper competition.

Long distressed because he had no male offspring-his previous marriage to Egypt's Princess Dina produced only one daughter-the grateful Hussein promptly rewarded his commoner wife by raising her to the rank of Princess...
...listening to jazz, riding motor scooters and wearing sunglasses in every conceivable stage of degradation. Every now and then, Director Mauro Bolognini remembers that he is supposed to sermonize, and there follows a cancer-at-the-heart-of-society scene. The punks unbutton their shirts to the navel (male exposure is the latest thing in social cancer) and lounge around glaring at one another. Nothing happens, which in the end is what seems the symbolic and significant development in The Wild Night...
