...other hand, by completely failing to realize any of the possibilities suggested by the various scenes, Shalako does propel the mind to tangential daydreaming. I got hung up on how amazingly little screen presence Connery has. A colleague emerged from the picture meditating that someone ought to make a decent picture about mountain-climbers. Another friend who shared this minor unpleasantness with us tried to figure out which part of the USA most resembled the locations in Spain where the film was shot. Yet another surmised, correctly I think, that the reason Shalako is an "outdoor" picture is that...

However, these two particular examples of "revolutionary" songs indicate a phenomenon that ought to moderate one's sense of disappointment with The Beatles.

When confronted by the locked door of his fifth floor studio I originally felt that somehow Harvard's sculptor ought to belong to me; I ought to be able to watch as well as learn from him.
