...taken by the great majority of French workers. Only a vocal few, in protest against their long history of being flattened to a single dimension by their unions as well as management and the government, demanded "direct democracy" and "participation" in factory affairs. They were sufficient in number to shout down Pompidou's wage increases. But they were not numerous enough to prevent the great bulk of French workers from wanting to go back to their workbenches, once it was clear that De Gaulle intended to stand firm. In that sense, the fundamental revolution of workers who are demanding...
...distance, they share some compelling political bonds. Thus, when Charles de Gaulle visited Rumania last week, he received a hero's welcome -even while he was being reviled back home by students in the streets of Paris.

When American and North Korean patrols spot each other across the zone, they regularly shout obscenities back and forth in the other's tongue...
...deploy 120,000 troops-supplied by the Soviet government, which has a stake in the film as message as well as art. And Bondarchuk makes the most of his forces. Cavalries plunge and break in tidal waves; columns of infantry writhe to the horizon and beyond; choruses of cannons shout like narrow mouths of hell in a series of vivid instants that recall the trancelike battle paintings of Uccello. With a knowing artist's eye, the director composes vignettes reminiscent of the harshness and heartbreak of Goya etchings. Again and again, the dolor and grandeur of Russia...
