...DeLovely," "Friendship," "I Get a Kick Out of You," "Blow, Gabriel, Blow," "Take Me Back to Manhattan," and lesser known though equally delightful gems like, "Let's Misbehave," and "Heaven Hop." Whew. This production adds still another number, a bit of Porter patter called, "The Physician," specifically for Virginia Pasay (and on the basis of her screamingly elegant rendition, I might have given her a few more.) Over the years, the numerous contributors to the book have crammed it with great old gags and one-liners, and they come at you so fast that you can't fight them...
DIED. Dr. Wadi Haddad, 49, co-founder of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (P.F.L.P.) along with fellow physician Dr. George Habash, and mastermind of many spectacular anti-Israeli terrorist acts, including the hijacking of four airliners in one operation in 1970 and the seizure of the Lufthansa airliner stormed by West German commandos at Mogadishu late last year; of an undisclosed illness; in East Berlin...
...EXCELLENT PERFORMANCES by Kowalski and Hufstader, pregnant patient and principled physician run through the standard arguments for and against abortion. This time, however, the sex roles are reversed: Man is the desperate, powerless victim, and woman the smug, powerful perpetrator.

This 1967 release documents the plunge of a stunning Catherine Deneuve into the abyss of masochism, highlighted by brilliantly filmed vignettes of surrealism and as bizarre plot twist, bringing Deneuve's wife of a Parisian physician (Jean Sorel) to the doors of a brothel for a job. Only his classic "Los Olivados" approaches the eeriness of the dream sequences in "Bell de Jour," and relative newcomers to Bunuel's work should mark down this Sunday's showing as a must-see. One screening will quickly dispel...
...most enduring characters of European folklore is the gnome, a gnarled night creature who lives for centuries, stands only 6 in. when full grown but is seven times stronger than man. With exhilarating wit and tongue-in-cheek charm, Dutch Physician Wil Huygen and Illustrator Rien Poortvliet put together a mock sociological history of the gnome that is proving to be an astonishing money spinner. Ponderously titled leven en werken van de Kabouter (The Life and Work of the Gnomes) in The Netherlands, the book is a spoof that solemnly reports that, among other things, Mozart's gnome...
