...Terror) keeps a hot tempo. After junking the car, the four sprint through a "dense and umbrageous forest" of Douglas fir, and the sheriff's gun changes hands at least three more times. One hood tumbles to his death from a scenic precipice; the steely moll turns to mush under Janssen's Gableish charms; the other hood, played by Actor-Comic Frank (Bells Are Ringing) Gorshin, gets his in a forest fire...
Busoti's work is also written for the voice. Miss Berberian is here required to hum, chant and rasp in at least five different languages (she concludes by moaning "Mush, straight ahead, mush") both at the audience and into the occasionally accompanying grand piano. Miss Berberian has one of the few voices I have ever heard that is equal to such a task. Her superb control and truly magnificent versatility enabled her to present a most triumphant reading of this unusually demanding work...
...engineers approve of doctored stereo. Says Columbia's William S. Bachman: "You have a single signal to start with. We don't think there is any honest way to make two out of it.

Weiss and Taylor do not know how a mush of isolated cells manages to rally and reassume its proper job in a developing embryo. But they are sure that no special guidance can come from the blood-supplying membrane, which acts the same in all cases. Therefore they say the individual cells of a partly formed organ must contain information that tells them what is expected of them. When they are separated and jumbled into a mush, they can reorganize and try to complete as best they can their part of the master plan of the vanished embryo...
