Roberts, meanwhile, who held a barely comforting but nevertheless upper hand in the early sixties, when Finney could only rankle at his own inhibitions, must now suffer the humiliation of seeing her husband swing free and appear, at least, to be having a grand old time. The director, Anthony Page, attaches time tags to each of the film's sequences without pushing the point, but the message comes across nonetheless: in the period after marital hypocrisy had been declared taboo but before women began to really assert their rights, a housewife who had surrendered her identity to her husband faced...

Solomon points out that food images still dominate the way the Chinese formulate their political concerns. In Chinese the verb to suffer literally means to eat bitterness. The Chinese customarily talk about conflict in terms of "consuming enemies" or "being eaten" by them. Recently Mao himself described the temptations of bourgeois life as "sugarcoated bullets," more dangerous to the proletarian purity of the Chinese revolution than the lead bullets of the class enemy...
