...Hollister and lounged around the main street until some boys from the Elks' Lodge poured beer on them from their second-floor meeting room.

There Belushi blossomed into an archangel of the grotesque. His face-round and blandly menacing in repose, like a middle-level Mafioso's-could contort into semblances of slashing samurai, killer bees, Joe Cocker or Marlon Brando. Belushi's body, stolid as a '53 Studebaker, could erupt in spasms of grace.

...unreal G.I. show, Wagner pouring out of choppers. Francis Ford Coppola comes so close to coaxing this monstrous myth into flight. Yet, at the end he fails because he abandons it. Making myth isn't enough for Coppola, he has to lay bare Evil. But a behemoth--like Marlon Brando, fingering his pate in semi-darkness and blubbering out The Hollow Men isn't Evil.
