...pinched his ample jowls and told him he was cute, he would probably kick you in the shins. Not that Mason Reese, a red-headed seven-year-old who looks uncannily like a 3-ft., 8-in. Arthur Godfrey, is an unfriendly chap. It is simply that Mason does not like to be embarrassed. All that fuss about his being on TV commercials, for example. When other kids recognize him on the street, he would rather play ball than sign autographs. He is suspicious of interviews. He squinted up at one reporter and said, "You're here to look...

Take me away." I wonder...
Last of Sheila. Slick but interesting. A murder mystery on a yacht. Don't even try to figure out the plot, which is convoluted almost beyond the limits of credibility. Most of the fun comes from watching James Coburn, Richard Benjamin, Dyan Cannon, James Mason, and Raquel Welch play themselves, with plenty of witty Hollywood quips and elaborate sets. Cheri...
