After an exchange of punts, Kemp took the Big Green 75 yds. in only 2:42, capping the drive with a superb 27-yd. touchdown pass to Shaun Teevens (brother of q.b. star Buddy '79). This elegantly designed play forced Crimson safety Mike Jacobs to guard three men in the left corner of the endzone, a mismatch Kemp exploited to perfection...

...number of foreign royalties to Catholic charities. His prejudices were surprisingly flexible. He enjoyed mocking the U.S. and calling its citizens "louts"; yet he told his agent to withhold publishing rights from Communist countries because they "might use Loved One as anti-American propaganda." Editor Amory does a superb job of reconstructing this complex, hidden man. The job was not easy; one nickname-filled early letter requires 31 footnotes. All the work was worth it.

In one tortuous montage of second long takes, her teary face flashes over and over, unable to finish a sentence, to complete a thought, to cry. She is the troubled object of Allen's obsessions, and though we learn her past, and even her future...

...Memories, even the ugliness, is beautiful. Having passed through his Brown period (Interiors), Allen emerges in his Black & White period as a spectacular director who masterfully designs long takes and exciting compositions. He enjoys the metaphorical blank screeen, toys with soundtrack blasts and whispers with the control of a superb cinematic technician. One shot, a wide landscape that turns Allen's dancing silhouette into a contemporary fiddler on the roof, is absolutely gorgeous. Allen's expert eye and ear are matched by the steady hand of Gordon Willis (who shot Manhattan) behind the camera...
