...Banal but central. She has one hell of a behind. But remember: a schoolgirl animated by sex. Tell about Margaret's sex life. Husband's. Mama's. Producer's. Director's. Agent's. Co-star's. Don't forget character with shoe fetish. Add a little lesbianism. Anything else? No? O.K. Margaret returns. Shooting resumes. Everybody happy. Fade out into wine-dark...

Showing off a hole the size of a quarter, Mahoney bragged of his 17 years "walking up and down" the state campaigning.

She eventually sells off her furniture, buys a jaunty little car, and finances a Communist cobbler who yearns to open a self-service shoe store. Before death overtakes her, the cheeky septuagenarian has lived two lives-one being the long years of servitude as daughter, wife and mother, the other made up of 18 brief but glorious months of scandalous self-indulgence...
