...crew, which seems to stand for the U.S. public, is shown as a lazy collective lummox that just wants to live comfortably. The captain (Richard Crenna), who talks like a Jules Feiffer caricature of Lyndon Baines Jingo, acts at the critical juncture like a militaristic maniac. The hero (Steve McQueen), who is known as Holman, but let that pass, is apparently intended to symbolize fine young men who die in battle needlessly...
Tawdry Test. Last week the New York Court of Appeals faced all those possibilities in a significant decision rejecting retroactivity.

She is at her best, perhaps, when dealing with Personalities. Truffaut, Albee, Stevenson, Noel Coward, and Simon McQueen (the weather girl) all make their appearances. "Campaigning I" and "Campaigning II," in which she deals with Robert Kennedy and Kenneth Keating during their Senatorial fight, are classic. Who could ever forget that breakfast in Scarsdale when "a couple of hundred women, all wearing suits, all with fresh hairdos, sang...
