...might be a case of women's liberation or mistaken sexual identity or simple adolescent wanderlust. Whatever, the fact is that not since the turn of the century have bald eagles nested in Massachusetts, and there is no sign they soon will. In June, two six-week-old eaglets from Michigan's Upper Peninsula were imported by Massachusetts wildlife authorities as part of a program to reintroduce the species to the Bay State. When they were placed in cages atop a 21-ft. tower, all went well-at first. Ross (the purported male) took to soaring like, well...
...less about what Fox does than they do about Bok or Rosovsky, who are even more removed from College life. This is understandable because Fox has no responsibility for curriculum issues and only supervises the administration of the College with his team of assistant deans. But don't be mistaken.

...undulations of plot-mistaken identities, furtive meetings in a forest haunted by impish spirits, a magic ride across the midsummer night sky, even an arrow that pierces the heart of one swain (Tony Roberts)-are meant to recall Shakespeare's Dream. Ingmar Bergman painted a lovely gloss on the subject in Smiles of a Summer Night. So why can't Allen have more fun with it? No film labeled a sex comedy should offer the truism "Marriage is the death of hope" four times, to be written on the blackboard of the moviegoer's mind. No Woody...
