...world cinema map. But what Canada has wrought physically remains its most stunning reason for pride. Montreal, Canada's largest metropolis, with 2,400,000 people, is agleam with new office buildings, hotels, theaters, boutiques (one soon to be opened by Mary Quant) and more miniskirts per square thigh than New York. Toronto (pop. 2,100,000), the Anglo-Saxon's answer to French Montreal, is richer, and rebuilding itself even faster. Both are youthful cities: half of Canada's population is under...

Off in the corner the inevitable lonely old man crouched over the Record-American, looking more forlorn for his old fashioned brown suit. A table of Negroes with conked hair and nail-head stovepipes.

The man (Al Freeman Jr.) looks like a young intellectual; the woman (Shirley Knight) acts like a maniac in a miniskirt. Smiling and snarling, she flops down beside him and slides her thigh against his thigh.
