...truly interesting figure in the movie is that of Cardigan's able young antagonist, the dashing Captain Nolan (David Hemmings). Nolan is, on the surface, the hero of the saga: he earned his commission by fighting in India rather than by paying in London, he disapproves of flogging, he falls in love, and he is a skilled horseman and soldier. But in a film where most of the other characters exhibit a That-Was-the-Week-That-Was simplicity, Nolan is a very ambiguous figure. For while he lacks Cardigan's fanatical obsession with form and privilege, Nolan...

...NOLAN will later shoot two infantrymen--one English and one Russian--who try to strip corpses amid the gory chaos of Balaclava. The calm manner with which he draws his revolver and kills the two men is utterly anomalous in the excitement and emotionalism of the battle and the setting: Nolan acts with the cool detachment of a German SS officer.

...lowest in the National League, the Mets last week were only two games out of second place. For an explanation, there was no need to look beyond the pitching of the team's four parsimonious starters: Jerry Koosman, 24, Dick Selma, 24, Tom Seaver, 23, and Nolan Ryan, 21. Among them, the four boast a season's record of 25 wins, only eleven defeats, and a combined earned-run average of 1.74. The excitement they generate is reflected at the gate. In a year when attendance elsewhere has declined dramatically, 54,259 fans turned out at Shea Stadium...
