Women's styles currently tend to taper close to the nape of the neck with close sides and a fuller crown. "A lot of people like to see their ears now," says Michael DiBlasi owner of Michael's Hair Design at 1105 Mass.

And the vision delicately propels--we go on, as viewers never picked up running by the nape of the neck to churn legs wildly in the air. Shot in 1970, in color, to my mind Bunuel's greatest film...
