...spirited Alfredo sings in La Traviata. "Oh, rejoice, with wine cup and singing." That's what Cary Grant, Charlton Heston, Angie Dickinson and other members of Hollywood's elite were doing last week at Chasen's restaurant as the stars twinkled out a little starstruck themselves to meet the town's newest celebrity: famed Tenor Luciano Pavarotti, a sometime Alfredo, who is about to take four months out of a schedule almost as fully packed as he is to star in Yes, Giorgio, a comedy about an Italian singer who falls in love with an American...

The second show on the bill is a Truffaut tale about young Antoine Doinel; it's more incisively funny than...

And there is more of this comic strip stuff, too much more. The camera injects twinkling into everybody's eyes--or are the actors so starstruck by their roles? Karen Black yaws her mouth open like a catcher's mit and rolls out her O's more like monkeys than any Brooklyn twang. Mia Farrow's voice is less of money than of milk. And there is Lois Chiles as Jordan Baker who is the worst...
