...directorial debut, Actor Alan Arkin (Luv, The Russians Are Coming) snake-dances the cast through this gorgeous farce and produces sight gags to match the early silent two-reelers. The players are perfect, and Dustin Hoffman is pluperfect. Apart from turning Harold Pinter upside down and dispelling all the potential menace in laughter, Playwright Livings achieves one added distinction: he has done an anatomy of modern mass man. As the stereotype has it, this is the man who will be reduced to electronic button pushing and social homogeneity, tutored to spend his leisure time with Shakespeare and symphonies. Brose shows...

...move around in this eye-popping urbanized sprawl, Angelenos depend almost completely on the auto. Fifty-five percent of downtown Los Angeles is given over to cars-in space occupied by freeways, offstreet parking and streets-and nearly 500 miles of freeways snake their way through the city's environs. Los Angeles County now has 3,900,000 autos for a population of 7,000,000, and the number is growing faster than the human population. There is little public transport; less than 8% of Angelenos travel to and from work by public transport v. 54% of New Yorkers...
