FORTY CARATS is a frothy farce by Pierre Barillet and Jean-Pierre Gredy. With Julie Harris as a middle-aged divorcee wooed by a lad of 22, the play enters a sane plea for a single standard of judgment on age disparity in marriage...

Such a lack of the generalist's sane overview often made American society, as seen from Moscow, something of a mystery. Was racial violence, for example, a sign that it was coming apart at the seams...
