...ceremony came from Andalusia-a symbol, said the baby's father, of that region's graciousness and warmth. The water was flown in from the River Jordan. The minister was the Archbishop of Madrid, and the guests included members of three royal families (Greece, Bulgaria and Spain), two Spanish Cabinet ministers and Generalissimo Francisco Franco. Thus last week, in the 20-room Zarzuela Palace on the outskirts of Madrid, Felipe Juan Pablo Alfonso y Todos los Santos de Borbón, who might by the 21st century sit on the Spanish throne, was freed from the bonds...

...baptism turned out to be quite a bash-and with good reason. Felipe is the first son of Prince Juan Carlos and Princess Sophie (whose brother is the exiled King Constantine of Greece) and the first heir to the throne to be born in Spain since the monarchy fell in 1931. For the Borbóns-the Spanish branch of the Bourbons-it was a heady occasion indeed. The baby's great-grandmother, 80-year-old Dowager Queen Victoria Eugenia, ended 37 years of exile (most of it self-imposed) to fly in from Nice for the baptism...

...predict-by attributing great significance to acts of meaningless trivia-when, if ever, Franco will restore the monarchy, and to whom, if anyone, he will give the crown.

He allowed Spain's monarchists to organize a mass rally to greet Queen Victoria Eugenia at the airport, but restricted TV coverage to a 17-second film strip. He himself declined to meet the plane but sent his Air Force Minister. When he showed up for the baptism, he agreed to observe...

...XIII, is still the official pretender and conducts himself like a man who expects to be king. He receives advice from a shadow cabinet of royal councilors, holds audiences in his villa at the Portuguese resort town of Estoril and is attended at all times by a grandee of Spain. Last week the monarchist crowds in Madrid even dared chant a forbidden cry: "Long live King Juan...

Three years ago, Clint Eastwood-an unshaven, slit-eyed refugee from television's Rawhide-was glad to get an invitation from Italian Director Sergio Leone to star in a hokey little quickie to be shot in Spain. It was called A Fistful of Dollars, and the title proved prophetic: the picture was a smash. Leone and Eastwood collaborated again on For a Few Dollars More. Now they are back with The Good, the Bad and the Ugly-a title that might serve as the film's own capsule review...
