In cases of low sexual desire, for example, M & J report a "nonfailure" rate of 80% without explaining precisely what that means.

He then abandons this marvelous scene entirely to turn himself into a spiflicated patient entangling him self in a revolving door, a sequence that turns out to be even more brilliantly timed. Unknown Chaplin offers dozens of examples of this kind of comic grace under self-generated pressure. (He was obliged by his Mutual contract to turn out a film a month, and later...
