...Savage Messiah is not only as offensive as Russell's earlier films, but lacks their only redeeming virtue, the power of visual shock. Its ingredients are the same: scenes of destruction and decadence, of incredible decor, exaggerated sentimentality, twisted passions and a non-stop dialogue of references to the terrors and joys of artistic fervor. But by now, this melange of heavy drama and unbroken noise-making is as old as Hollywood's infant epics. The vulgar baroque that once amazed, is muted in The Savage Messiah and serves only to exacerbate the bankruptcy of Russell's vision. He projects...

HOWARD preferred his Doble over his Stanley . . . but he was critical of both because they took too much time to get up steam, and they had relatively short non-stop cruising ranges. They consumed water at what Howard considered an inordinate rate, and had to stop about every 60 or 70 miles for a refill...

But the Acharya went that evening to Bihari's house, where Bihari finally yielded, and they talked-for ten hours, non-stop. During this time Bihari brought up all the arguments, reservations, and skepticism he could produce-at one point he even offered the Acharya a job-but the Acharya patiently, confidently, and considerately out debated him. The next day Bihari took initiation...

...Dead were reaching the limits of their power-several hours of nearly non-stop music at the end of a long tour can do that. They paused briefly after one piece, and started in quickly on "Uncle John's Band," a calm, beautifully harmonized song from Workingman's Dead. It was the best saved for last. and it meant the end of the concert was close at hand. The crowd appreciated the song noisily; when it was over, the audience clapped wildly, shouting for more, stomping, clapping in unison, but the Dead were tired, and there...
