...Glenn Troelstrup became the first newsman in Viet Nam permitted to accompany a Seal team on a mission. Dropped by Navy river patrol boats deep into Viet Cong country southeast of Saigon in the swampy mangrove sector of Rung Sat, the Seals set up an ambush beside a small stream. There, for 14 long hours, they froze in position, hip-deep in mud, clad in camouflage suits and bush hats, their faces blackened. Their only communication was by tugs on a string running among them...
...Much Sun. Then there was a stream-of-consciousness interview with Actor Michael Pollard, who made it plain that he is no different off-camera from the engagingly befuddled garage attendant he plays in Bonnie and Clyde. He left Los Angeles, he said, because "I just didn't like the sun shining all the time." As for his looks, "Man when I got into show business you know everybody started saying, 'You've got a beautiful face. Beautiful face.' So uh then hey I looked in the mirror and I said, 'Hey yeah.

Draconian Directives. As Public Affairs Chief of the U.S. European Command, Ellis conceives AFN broadcasts to be an obedient arm of U.S. policy. From his office in Stuttgart has come a steady stream of Draconian directives, all in the interests of what he calls "preventive maintenance."

No longer could AFN refer to the National Liberation Front...
...Guerre Est Finie by Alain Resnais. Resnais continues to employ a mosaic technique where flashbacks and quick montages of thoughts and objects are inserted, reaffirming Resnais' flair for visual stream of consciousness. Where Hiroshima Mon Amour used mostly flashbacks, La Guerre Est Finie's inserts are mostly flash-forwards: fears and premonitions of Diego, the middle-aged Spanish revolutionary, played so magnificently by Yves Montand. In sight and Sound, Tom Milne describes Diego as caught between two worlds "in more ways than one: between Spain and France, between youth and age, between the old Spain of the International Brigade...
Gene shinnied along the limb until he was dangling about four feet above the stream. Thinking him safe, and unable to fend off the dogs, Mrs. Goodman ran back to the house and tele phoned her husband Eugene, 26, a self-employed exterminator who was working part time in a market at nearby Lynchburg. Goodman sped home in his pickup truck, found his wife hysterical and barely capable of pointing out to him the area where she had last seen Gene. Thrashing wildly down the hill and shouting his sons' names as he ran, Goodman was brought up short...
