...magazine has paid dearly for its opinionated independence. Stories on Black Power, Barry Goldwater and the CIA all led to cancellations of advertising. So did an editorial that took an almost neutral, rather than pro-Israel stance on the Arab-Israeli war. "You have madness in publishing now," says Hinckle. "There is no relationship between the publisher and the reader. It's all between the publisher and the advertising agencies. The readers are there as consumer figures to be marketed and put together for the ad agencies. The readers don't even get to say if they want...
...disintegrating marriage has several breaking points: the most obvious occurred during the filming of Rosemary's Baby with Director Roman Polanski. Sinatra tried to get her to leave Rosemary and join The Detective; she wouldn't. By night he telephoned her to say that he couldn't live without her; by day he planned divorce proceedings. Mia heard about them not from her husband but from his attorney.

In all likelihood, they say, the flashing star is actually a pulsar...
Costals accepts neither. He cannot abide the idea of married coupling ("sublimation, wrangling and frenzy"). Instead, as a change from Andrée's overblown (not to say overwritten) femininity, he pursues Solange Dandillot, a pretty and reassuringly placid young thing from the Parisian upper middle class.

In short, she becomes a woman who wants to get married. To that end, she willingly suffers every humiliation that Costals can devise for her, including...
NEEDLESS TO SAY, everybody works to the point of exhaustion. Often, in the most desperate of cases, a producer will bring in additional writers to "doctor" or, hopefully, save the show. Alexander Cohen, Dear World's producer, used his wife, Hildy Parks, and another librettist, Joe Masteroff (who wrote Cabaret) to fix up his production. Neither of these show doctors will receive program credit for their work, but they will get a flat sum of money, and, if their rewriting is substantial, perhaps a percentage royalty...
