...greeted the president of Nicaragua and the U.S. ambassador wearing his pajama bottoms, his bathrobe and his old sandals. The tall, emaciated billionaire and the stocky, bespectacled dictator hit it off well. They had much in common; in many ways their coming together was comparable to a state visit between two sovereigns...
...cynic had a past and is not simply sewn together of one-liners. Peter Fisher's Brad is mature, intelligent and, most difficult of all, a good Listener. Caroline Jones's Missy knows just how O'Donnell wanted his girl to talk, like a furry-slippered guest at a pajama party: "My dad would have a cow if he caught me," she says, and means it.

When Ford's victory was certain, Reagan changed into a blue suit and blithely bounded into the coffee shop to tell reporters: "We're all delighted. We've challenged an incumbent who has thrown the whole...
...victims. When Pasquale (Giancarlo Giannini) and his companion Francesco, deserters from the Italian army, are captured by the Germans and taken to a concentration camp, the greens and browns of the lush German countryside give way abruptly to stark grey and black. The camera pans chains of shell-shocked, pajama-clad prisoners, herded through this labyrinth of death by expressionless guards with drawn sub-machine guns and attack dogs. With Wagner's The Ride of the Valkyries punctuating its grisly movements, the camera catches sight of the grotesque forms of the hanged above the melee, pausing to observe the ironic...
