Julie (MGM) is a regular little pell-meller from the opening scene, in which a jealous husband (Louis Jourdan) quarrels with his wife (Doris Day) while she is driving a car, jams his foot on the throttle, and for the next two minutes gives the moviegoer practically all the sensations of being a member of an avalanche. After that, it somehow occurs to Julie that the man she is married to may not be entirely right in the head...

...Haya Hararit. The second tells of Michael Wager, a Jew from New York City (but, refreshingly, not from Brooklyn), who is both wounded and briefly disillusioned in an unsuccessful attack in the Old City of Jerusalem. This episode gives a cleanly realistic picture of street fighting: instead of charging pell-mell at the enemy, the Israelis advance in twos and threes, hugging the walls of houses and making quick dashes for the protection of doorways and abutments...
