...look different. One can no longer have his own opinion: he must wait until he is told whether a movie is In before he can like it. He can't buy a suit unless it comes from Carnaby Street.

...course the question begging to be asked was "How did you get into the profession?" but in the context of the conversation it seemed a rude, insensitive, almost cruel thing to do. Daughter of an engineer, she was born and raised in Princeton, N.J., ("What did my father do? He didn't speak to me for three years!"), married young, is now divorced, lives is Edgewater, N.J., and has a five-year old child. He's getting a sled for Christmas. Judging from the real jewelry, the minks, and the quality of the champagne, she lives well...
