...well, Alexander (as he would say) must be everything a man would like to be, but above everything else he must have a sense of humor that is infectious (how else could he tolerate La Grande?).

The real value of this library is that these are source materials for the scholar who wants to get right down to the fundamentals: where did it all come from...
...Young Torless to If . . . . the metaphor is made and remade until it seems ready to become a staple of film culture, like the western. The Boys of Paul Street, a joint U.S.-Hungarian production, maintains the tradition without illuminating it.
