...against painfully over-drawn bogies of pure evil, such as the dissolute Lord Manchester (Robert Morley). Though Hughes takes pains to paint Cromwell as a sexually vigorous masculine dynamo (we even have one shot of him the bracing a long spear), there is more life and sexuality in the tender parting of Charles and his queen (Dorothy Tutin) than in either of the cardboard domestic scenes between Oliver and the vapid Mrs. Cromwell. I say either, as the camera only takes us into Cromwell's country estate once at the beginning and once toward the end of the film...
Trilogy or sixpack, it is a stunning example of pop crossbreeding: Soolaimon, for example, is a pulsating toe-tapper that Diamond terraces forcefully with one climax after another. In contrast are these tender lines from a children's chorus called Childsong that opens the work...
...contrast, the U.S. has only two destroyers and a seaplane tender based at Bahrein. The British also have about seven ships in the Persian Gulf, and at least 20 more based at Singapore.

Everywhere, Delius' music flows effortlessly in and out, over and under the libretto (based on the novel The Grandissimes by George Washington Cable) with the caressing quality of rhapsody at its best. Save for a few instances of post-Wagnerian schmalz...
...sell movies. [Low chorus of enthusiastic murmurs from subordinates.] We gave them Zabriskie Point, and we even put back all the sex and dope stuff that had been cut out. The public still didn't go for it. We gave them The Magic Garden of Stanley Sweetheart, the tender story of a student's search for identity. Nice sex in there, but they didn't go for that. We gave them The Strawberry Statement. No sex but, I felt, a very strong political statement, a courageous film, you might even say. They didn...
