...four players perform bravely, despite a script which is about as suspenseful as "Little Red Riding Hood."

He writes: "Having had the doubtful privilege of living in a totalitarian state for 12 years, I have been deprived of reading TIME for many years . . . When war broke out I had to put up with a dreary, TiMEless life. For an old perpetual, this was truly an ordeal.
