...SAINT-SAENS: CONCERTOS NOS. 2 AND 4 FOR PIANO AND ORCHESTRA (Columbia). The 31-year-old French pianist Philippe Entremont tosses off both virtuoso works with steel-fingered bravura. Saint-Saens' flashy climaxes are mostly rhetoric, but as Entremont plays them they are satisfying to the ear; in the lyrical passages, he is able to draw a fine melodic line between melancholy and pathos. The brilliant splashes of orchestral color are furnished by the Philadelphia Orchestra, Eugene Ormandy conducting...
...early church fathers would have examined Adman Ogilvy carefully for horns and a cloven hoof if they had heard his contemptuous put-down of patience, a paramount Christian virtue. St. Paul rated it a "fruit of the spirit" and St. Augustine called it "the companion of wisdom." Saints had it: the ultimate in provocation is proverbially "enough to try the patience of a saint."

In this, as in his zooms on wounds, Malle at times seems eager to wrench his film from its genre, creating a tension it doesn...
...Milwaukee, nearly 100,000 people recently walked out of snow and subfreezing temperatures straight into a lush garden where a stone Saint Francis of Assisi stood by a gurgling waterfall and fields of flowering forsythia and geraniums. In Kansas City, Mo., the theme was "A Circus of Flowers," with a candy-striped circus tent summoning up a gay, summer air. For the opening of Cleveland's 23rd show, neither blizzards nor bone-chilling winds sweeping off of ice-covered Lake Erie could deter 18,000 hardy hobbyists. And in Detroit, while huge blocks of ice floated down the river...
