...double-edged sword if the energy and vitality of PBHA is lost. This agreement is signed for one year; in September 1997, both Harvard and PBHA will review it.

"Manny and Lo" belongs to the ranks of movies that offer more pleasure in the moment's fantasy, in the little package of an idea, than in its fully realized execution...
