...second clip of Amy Carter walking to her integrated school. Faye Dunaway won her Oscar for Chinatown, not this lemon. Peter Finch is dead, and far be it from me to talk about the dead. A dignified William Holden as network news chief comes off rather like a Shetland pony in an 8 x 11 porno still--he looks more dignified than the questionable debutantes around him. Paddy Chayevsky's script is polemical, cliched, and like most tracts, boring. Watch Cronkite...

...school. Faye Dunaway won her Best Actress award for Chinatown, not this lemon. Peter Finch is dead, and far be it from us to talk about the dead. William Holden turns in a solid performance as the network news chief, but the dignified Holden comes off rather like a Shetland pony in an 8 x 11 porno still-he looks more dignified than the questionable debutantes around him. Paddy Chayevsky's script is polemical, cliched, and, like most tracts--boring. This film is a real disappointment; there is a great story there in the world of Rather. Reasoner, Cronkite...

...breaks wet and chilly, with the sound of harness bells and calls of "Wagons ho!" The teams-matched pairs of Belgians, palominos and Arabians -walk out briskly, followed by Shetland ponies and mules. Hitched to faithfully copied new versions of Conestogas and prairie schooners, the animals are pointed toward Petersburg, Mich., some 20 miles southeast.

Villagers look, wave, offer plates of homemade cookies and other food, and sometimes get bitten...
