...about 40,000, including the contingent of imported British servants) supports no less than eight branch offices of New York Stock Exchange firms; a bank that handles about $500 million in its trust department; some 25 art galleries peddling an estimated $10 million worth of what local Culture Critic Rolf Kaltenborn calls "the worst art per square inch of any place in the world"; a brand new Rolls-Royce dealership that has sold 35 cars since its opening in West Palm Beach last September; and a mayor who campaigns, usually unopposed, in a mere Cadillac...
...effect is sometimes a calumny, as when a Rolf Hochhuth claimed in Soldiers that Churchill engineered the murder of the head of the Polish government in exile.

Throughout, the photography (by Tom Rolf) is excel lent, capturing the bleached and blinding light of the Southwest. James Coburn seems to be relaxing and growing as an actor. Charming and bemused in The Carey Treatment (TIME, April 24), he is effectively ornery here. The rest of the cast fit snugly into their roles, too, with...
