...runs not only in the trees but also in the body, the imagination of the would-be traveller soars to its most vertiginous heights and the intransigent pulse of wanderlust surges relentlessly through the veins. Like Shelley we yearn to be done with frozen leaves and turbulent skies and shout forth a panegyric to the incipient balmy days of a more gentle season. But alas, the streets bear the scars of the ravages of snowstorms, the trees scream in their gnarled bareness, the clouds continue to obscure the fulgent sunshine. Cambridge does not easily shake the remnants of its most...
...thing that held together the stupid plots of 1930's musicals was the sharp, witty give-and-take between characters--Aline MacMahon fighting with Guy Kibbee, for example. But the pace is so slow in Bogdanovich's film--most of the time the actors shout to each other from across a room--that the little wit he put into the script gets swallowed up by the chandeliers. And Astaire needed the foil of stupid, stuffy Edward Everett Horton to show off his own urbanity. Reynold's counterpart to Horton is his mother, normally silly Mildred Natwick, who breezes...
...their list of musts was a moratorium on all new federal spending programs through 1976. "We want him to shout that loud and clear, right now," declared a Senator.

"Get off the bus, Maceo. You've got to come home," they shout at Dixon. However, the conference is glad to get rid of people who, as a tall skinny black wearing a huge leather hat says, "won't discuss constructive programs." But the black third world coalition charges that they were intentionally left out of the planning for the conference, even though they...
...first. Despite a passing reference to the "infamous Latin American disease of machismo," Klein's script gives little attention to the position of women in the revolution. It is assumed that women will fight alongside men, and when a team of women workers outdoes the men's team, they shout triumphantly "Viva las mujeres!" But it is also assumed that after a hard day's fighting in the jungle the women will do the cooking. Tania's no-nonsense personality is in obvious contrast to the role of the bourgeois flirt that she assumes as a spy, but when...
