...Parliament. Previews still does 90% of its business in residential land ("The appreciation can be fantastic"), specializes in finding buyers for U.S. residences such as Bing Crosby's seven-room lodge on Hayden Lake in Idaho, now for sale at $95,000. "We don't live by soufflés alone," says Executive Vice President Robert T. Furman Jr. But Previews has made its reputation peddling white elephants and exotic properties. For $300,000 Tysen will sell a half share in an Irish distillery, for $182,000 the title to the Windward Island of Mustique, which Previews claims...
...really unlucky man can break a tooth on a cheese soufflé, get bitten by the gentlest of Chihuahuas, lose a big poker pot holding four kings.

...finding a foundling that nobody will believe is not her own. What the story badly needs is a group of skilled comedians. Eddie Fisher, no actor, has a pleasant voice, and Debbie Reynolds has a pleasant face. The main trouble is that Director Norman Taurog has dished up his soufflé with a fairly heavy hand...
...Sudsy Soufflé. The kind of drama the viewers really like, apparently, was served up by CBS on Climax! Its hour-long production of The Louella Parsons Story scored a handsome 27.0 Trendex-the highest rating ever won by the show. What viewers saw was a sudsy narrative with all the impact of a souffle hitting a concrete wall. In a slick amalgam of film and live TV, Teresa Wright played Gossipist Louella to near-perfection, catching the whining needle of the Parsonian voice and delivering ex cathedra pronouncements on Louella's likes (dancing, pretty clothes, dogs, young people...
