...Littlest Outlaw (Walt Disney) is what the trade calls a "wetback," i.e., a Hollywood picture made in Mexico to save money. The story is all about a little Mexican boy (Andres Velasques) and a big chestnut horse that kiss each other. When the horse is condemned to death by its master (Pedro Armendariz), the little boy steals it and becomes what the title so stickily suggests. He hides the horse successively in a smithy, a barbershop, a ruined hacienda, a boxcar, a church. In transit, the camera takes the usual tourist shots of cactus, fiestas, religious processions, fireworks, cactus. They...
...next two years. Last week O'Neil climaxed the coup with a $12 million flourish. He sold two unreleased films, Jet Pilot and The Conqueror, back to Howard Hughes himself for $8,000,000 cash and about $4,000,000 in future payments.

Worse still, March soon realizes that the law is no less his enemy than the outlaw; for if the police find out where the criminals are hiding, they are sure to come after them, and when they do, Bogart & Co., as promised, will make sure that March and family die first. The man of the house stands alone, and if he falls, his family falls with him. What...
...great political problems awaiting a solution could be served by means of war." He extended that sentiment to his NATO allies. Since the Kremlin had bade him come and discuss "the normalization of relations," Adenauer laid down his terms. "I do not think it will suffice to outlaw war, to create security systems and to establish, so to speak, in a mechanical way, diplomatic, economic and cultural relations," said Adenauer. Two important Soviet deeds were necessary: ¶The return of Germans still imprisoned in Russia, said by Bonn to number 80,000 to 100,000. "It is an unbearable thought...
