...flexibility of movement and lower budgets. "On most Hollywood movies," he complains, "there are guys on a set to shove chairs under you.

Just as Lucius Beebe and his private railway car made few if any sociological waves, so Fielding and his portable martini mixer are headed for inverted snobbism's dubious Hall of Fame.
