...bought at the outset largely by speculators who lusted after a quick profit and sold speedily when it did not materialize. Shareholders who have held on are in for a different kind of disappointment. They had been promised stock certificates decorated with the bare-bosomed centerfold photo of Willy Rey, last February's Playmate of the Month, but Playboy officials have sent the prototype certificate back to the engravers for some retouching to make it less revealing.

When he was not quite 19, before he first left Spain for Paris, Picasso wrote on a self-portrait "Yo el Rey"-the King. This motif runs through his art and life. To think that Picasso has ever been embarrassed by the homages paid him would be naive. Though prone to fits of self-doubt, he is the most naturally egotistic artist since Benvenuto Cellini, a standing refutation of the cozy untruth that geniuses are rather humble at heart.

...under arrest. But as the President tried vainly to make the order stick, military units around the country rallied to Lanusse's side. Levingston resigned and Argentina returned to direct military rule, under a junta comprised of Lanusse, Navy Admiral Pedro Gnavi and Air Force Brigadier General Carlos Rey. Lanusse took over the presidency while retaining command of the army, a precaution against future coups.

Tristana. Luis Bunuel's tale is about a young woman (Catherine Deneuve) who falls prey to the affections of her much older guardian (Fernado Rey). Comic (if not to the extent of The Milky Way ) and darkly surreal, this film presents Bunuel's unique vision of the shifting planes of morality...
