...ultimate success of the security conference may be determined by how seriously the Soviets follow through on these concessions. Western delegates also will be watching for signs of independence by the U.S.S.R.'s East bloc allies. In the 199 days of preliminary negotiations that concluded last month, they generally remained totally subservient to Moscow-a disappointing augury for a true East-West flow of ideas. One notable exception was Rumania, which sees the conference as a chance for smaller nations to have an important say in matters previously dominated by the superpowers...
...Reverend Ike. Ike doesn't promise pie in the sky when you die. He gives it to you now, with ice cream on top. You can also get his address so you can get the success idea of the week. But if everybody has the same idea, you have to wonder about getting the pie at all. Channel...

One notices her sly smile on penning "For Mister Horner," one senses her giddy excitement on being able to write her own letter, one enjoys her unconscious tickling of her nose with the quill, one shares her gleeful success at hiding the dictated letter under Pinchwife's very wig.

David Rounds, with beauty spots on his right chin and left cheek, has great fun with the role of Sparkish...
...Easy Rider of 1973, two down-and-outers working their way east toward money and destruction in an inversion of the Westward push myth with the rainbow pot of glory at the end. The movie not only lacks coherent narrative, it lacks any form at all. Rather, for whatever success it may have trained its sights upon, the film seems to depend heavily on audience gullibility vis a vis "art at the movies" built up by the new media hypes. Ten from VYour Show of Shows. A sampling of the 160 90 minute weekly shows directed and produced...
