...props and stunt riders; all that is needed is a smallish garrison of redcoats, a brace of cameo parts (filled, with steely and rather contemptuous panache, by Sir Ralph Richardson and Sir John Gielgud), one or two sexual objects, a Napoleon, some rocks for the escape attempt and a sunset or two to be glowered at from cliff tops. Once these were assembled, Director Fielder Cook's imagination was set free to contemplate the psychology of the trapped Emperor...

Equally significant, these accidents tended to peak in cycles...

Hippie was now the 95-lb. speed freak on the corner who hustled bad acid and talked non-stop about getting it all together "in a commune somewhere."
