...even that great an idea for Black students to study Black people. If the criticisms had been isolated, it might have been easier to ignore them. But when the review committee demanded that the department's isolation within the University be ended, it was trying to shout back the tide. Nothing the department could do would reverse the unspoken verdict that the department had been a mistake...
...January does not rank high among Boston's most tantalizing intellectual months. There are no names coming who are renowned enough to drag the Spartacus Youth League (or anyone else, for that matter) out of their hibernation to march and shout. But if a craving for listening to others talk comes over you this lecture-scarce reading period, try out one of the above...
...confusing and contradictory welter of evidence. Both at the trial and at the appeal last April, Assistant District Attorney Newman A. Flanagan drowned his argument in emotionalism. Flanagan could not refute the overwhelming evidence that the fetus never lived outside the mother's womb, but he could shout, as he did at the appeal, that "this is the case of a child that was born."

All Flanagan could do was argue...

It was the strangling to death in a claustrophobic small town, the desperation of it--and not some quiet desperation, either. It was as real and loud as the shout from Elvin Anderson's yelping GT-60 8.20s as he went slip-sliding into that stationwagon.

...Shout at the Devil is certainly silly, and looks something of a shambles be sides, but it is a jolly enough enterprise, bumptiously entertaining in its own feckless way. Marvin overacts outrageously, sometimes lapsing into a full-fledged imitation of W.C. Fields gone native. Parkins is pretty, and Moore deft and quite amusing as a sort of good-hearted dolt. Director Peter Hunt (Gold) got his start as film editor on the early James Bond adventures and knows how to work on the funny bone even as he stages a punchy scene. The movie hardly wants for plot or action...
