...second part of the checklist was the defense, and the Killer D showed that it too was ready to go. With sticks on every shot, and intercepting galore, the defense had an extremely solid game, limiting the Big Green to only ten shots...
...times-Bundy displays a solid understanding of Behan's work, but, constantly, he falters. He interweaves the different themes and sub-plots with careful grace, but a bit too meticulously. Bundy's self-conscious style gives The Hostage an inappropriate solemnity. The frequent wisecracking of Behan's characters-their defense against despair and such horrors of the Modern Age as the H. bomb-loses all its verve as the director has his actors take long. Thoughtful pauses between too many lines. He dilutes the strength of many of the songs by having them performed like dirges. When the company joins...
...very tough problem. I don't think you can solve it simply by throwing more doctors as it, by producing more doctors in medical schools. The new doctors that you produce are going to go to the same places that the old doctors went. The fact is...where solid citizens don't want to live, doctors don't want live and practice either.

...everything went, well, like a rocket. Barely 45 min. off the launch pad, Columbia was circling the earth at an altitude of 150 miles. Before the end of the day it reached 170 miles. Meanwhile, two vessels steamed out to recover the 80-ton shells of two spent solid-fuel rockets that had parachuted into the Atlantic. When a nosey Soviet "trawler" edged into the site, the Coast Guard vessel Steadfast had to warn it off, then actually block its path, before the Russians backed off. The steel rocket frames were burned and bent a bit, but can probably...
...three crucial supporting roles, only Christopher Randolph as Dr. Rank manages a solid, thoughtful performance. Jonathan Spalter makes Barnstrom--again, an unnecessary Americanization from Krogstad--a hilarious cardboard villain, right out of The Perils of Pauline. He clenches his teeth, he points accusingly, he leans over chairs menacingly, he rubs his palms in sadistic glee. If he had a moustache, he'd sure to twirl it with fiendish rigor. As Kristine, his long lost love, Kim Bendheim seems vaguely robotized. Their climactic scene together is a wet firecracker...
