When the big Boeing 707 touched down at Algiers' Dar-el-Beida airport, Algerian authorities impounded the plane. Next day they sent all passengers identified as non-Israelis to France on Air Algérie Caravelle jets after treating the detoured travelers well and giving them a sightseeing trip around Algiers. Twelve Israeli passengers and the crew of ten were held along with the plane, possibly as hostages for hundreds of Arab guerrillas currently in Israeli custody, though ten women and children were released at week's end.

Caroline Chérie's promoter was much less reticent. Producer Jacques-Paul Bernard declared that his remake was "very erotic" and set out to prove it. Caroline is a hot-and blue-blooded beauty who uses her body to save her head during the French Revolution, and Bernard generously showed what she saves and what she gives away.

The picture has not yet been shot...
