...movie is your basic "boy meets girl" film cut from the Love Story mold and based on a fairly respectable short story that first appeared in the New Yorker. The movie panders to the millions of soft-hearted Americans who thronged to The Way We Were and will throng to Oliver's Story.

Then in 1961 Jonathan Leakey, another of Louis' sons, unearthed parts of a 1.8 million-year-old skull that failed to fit easily into the familiar Australopithecus mold. The creature's teeth were more manlike than those of Australopithecus and the brain was larger; whereas Australopithecus brains averaged 450 to 550 cc. in volume, the cavity of the skull found by Jonathan Leakey indicated that it had contained a brain measuring nearly 700 cc.
