...carried into the ring and set down in long shot--isolated in the frame and imprisoned by the camera sweeping around her. Ophuls' cutting in closer to her body, rather than tracking in (a surprising thing to do in CinemaScope, which is better adapted to long takes than to quick cutting), emphasizes her staticity, her closeness to death. But the camera motions, which express the glamor vital to the circus, generate the energy and the grace Lola needs to begin re-enacting her life...
Stop the Clock. Hailing the French attitude, Italian Foreign Minister Pietro Nenni called for quick approval of any British application. In The Hague, Dutch Foreign Minister Joseph Luns, whose country for the next six months will hold the rotating chairmanship of the EEC's Council of Ministers, said that he would immediately seek from the Six a declaration of intent "to enlarge the Community."

...quick rundown, Spender typecasts French student-rebels as "romantic," West Germans as "theoretic" and Americans as "hysterical." Columbia's wildly improvising white students ("Let's take a hostage!") he accuses of being more neurotic than the blacks, who, he says, had limited but precise objectives.

...King intones the incipit of a Te Deum, and the ghostly choir picks it up in unison and, in the manner of the Living Theatre, moves down-stage to face the audience in a long row, humming and swaying from left to right--an inspired fusion of the quick and the dead. The effect of this scene is shattering and unforgettable. But, as with the traitors' pantomime, Kahn indulges himself too much and keeps the masks on the men right through to the end of the show, including the light-hearted woong scene, thereby diluting the masks' impact...
...prisoner squinted into the sunlight as he was led from the federal penitentiary at Lewisburg, Pa. Accompanied by a federal marshal, he was driven to his hometown of Detroit, where he was allowed a quick steak dinner at one of his favorite restaurants, Berman's Chop House. Immediately afterward, he was escorted to the Wayne County jail to be bedded down in Ward 512 with nine other prisoners. Early next morning he was taken to Chicago, to await hearings on his contention that his conviction for jury tampering was obtained with the help of illegal wiretaps. So went...
