...writer enraptured with despair. He plans suicide, if only he can work himself up to it. He is also schizoid: he sees himself as both a bourgeois and a fierce maverick, a prowling, implacable wolf of the steppes. An encounter with a beautiful young woman of mystery, Hermine (Dominique Sanda), brings him the chance of reconciling the shards of his psyche...
...smokes cigars!" The enraptured young man speaking is the son of a rich Italian landowner, played by Robert (Godfather H) De Niro, in Bernardo Bertolucci's film 1900.

...Mackintosh Man. John Huston's newest film. A convoluted and badly constructed plot moves British intelligence to send agent Paul Newman to jail, in order to infiltrate a ring which arranges prison breaks. Fine acting by James Mason, and beautiful Dominique Sanda, whose French accent sometimes gets in the way of her lines, cannot save this film. At the Pi Alley...
