...look at the fund's real estate mess frightened away Lomas & Nettleton, a Dallas real estate financing company that had been invited in as a comanager. Among the hundreds of obligations are loans to owners of race tracks, jai-alai frontons, boat slips, tennis courts and a $5 million mortgage on Ohio's Cathedral of Tomorrow, whose minister, Sawdust Evangelist Rex Humbard, likes to exhort: "You'd better straighten out and fly right with God." Last year $52 million was on loan to parties-in-interest," meaning institutions or individuals who have business or fiduciary relations with...
...Lois Nettleton, who plays Christina, says she has modeled her own character on Clark Gable, which may be the best clue yet to what All That Glitters is about. Barbara Baxley, the terrifying L.W., says that she didn't need a model. "As an actress, I've been aggressive and independent most of my life."

It has gunfights, cattle rustlers, painted women and a smoke-filled gambling hall, but all the roaring wickedness is dedicated wholeheartedly to the proposition that a feller (Keir Dullea) needs a girl (Lois Nettleton). Cupid's leathery old handmaiden is Buddy Ebsen, a family friend who holds the deed to a decrepit ranch left to Dullea by his late father, though Dullea can't claim it until he simmers down some. One morning Ebsen strides out of the privy with a Monky...
...some breathtaking acreage that no TV oat opera can duplicate. Actor Ebsen seems an authentic embodiment of covered wagon grit. And though Dullea's bad boy characterization scarcely conceals that he is easily redeemable-a sort of boor next door-his warm, fresh, quietly persuasive scenes with Actress Nettleton recall his vivid debut in David and Lisa, and enhance both actors' reputations as a pair of arresting young talents for whom better movies ought to be made...
