...whole thing will be rather crazy and we'll get all of Sweden into the film." That's precisely the trouble. Sjöman is like Stephen Leacock's young nobleman, riding madly off in all directions. He tries to reproduce the substance of Swedish politics, render a portrait of contemporary youth, satyrize the mechanics of film making, and dramatize his own hang-ups, all the while telling a rather conventional and sometimes funny story about a confused adolescent girl. These separate parts may occasionally work on their own, but they never form a cohesive or compelling...

In Les Créatures, which Varda has dedicated to her husband, she has fashioned a kind of portrait of the artist in finger paints, a childish and often embarrassing attempt to render life as the ultimate fiction...

And Military Fare, which superficially appears to be the same as Youth Fare, is authorized by statute and by judicial decision because it contributes to the National Defense by raising the morale of out troops--but the government could probably demand it legally in any event...

His new film concerns itself with difficulties of a young couple living on an island who suffer through war, invasion, and the proliferating horrors of their plight...
...Science Advisor, believes would be almost immediately obsolete, and which can never be realistically tested because of the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. ABM proponents further assume that China might use her first long-range missiles even before developing simple decoy devices, already known to the American military, that can render Sentinels almost useless. As a response China could only expect obliteration of her own people. The tortured illogic required for such a Chinese decision is imaginable only by using...
