First, there are four factual or typographical errors in the three paragraphs. The Bergmen Festival includes fourteen of his films. Our distributing company is called Janus films. The Fine Arts Theatre is certainly risking no great loss in playing Guinness films (check the management). The Telepix was not obliged to shut down for lack of customers. It is simply being renovated and will reopen in August. Under different management...
...good movies, even at the risk of a whacking great loss. Currently they're sponsoring a modest Guiness festival: Tunes of Glory, The Ladykillers, The Man in the White Suit and The Horse's Mouth. Of course, the Fine Arts may not be able to keep it up (the Telepix has already had to shut down). But while you can, don't miss the Guiness Festival.

Joan of the Angels? (Film Polski; Telepix) is a beautiful, full-bodied young woman possessed by eight demons. Almost proudly, she rattles off their names-Balaam, Isacaaron, Behemoth, Gressil, Dog's Tail, Amon, Leviathan, and Asmodeus, demon of lust. Asmodeus, of course, possesses many women.

In addition to this, Eisenstein switches...
...earliest of the three, appeared here within the last two years and The World of Apu was released only last spring. As if this were not enough effrontery, the Brattle management has also planned to exhibit John Cassavetes' Shadows, which is a truly fine film, certainly, but the Telepix had it just two months ago. And, lowest blow of all, there will be no Bogart festival this reading period, so that hundreds of members of the Class of 1965 will go through their first exams in Cambridge without seeing Casablanca. Yes, freshmen, there was a Bogey, but he is dead...
