...immensely complex Champagne Murders, Perkins and Ronet are introduced as inseparable, almost identical companions, but the influence that undermines their relationship remains an unknown until the ending. Always unsure of motive, always aware of an eerie presence that threatens to destroy the eccentric harmony of Chabrol's self-centered trio (Perkins, his wife Furneaux and friend Ronet), we watch spellbound as Chabrol brings us further into an impeccably decorated, completely corrupt world of malevolence. The final images, shocking and indescribable, are unlike any other in narrative cinema and, if nothing else, suggest an existential hell as beautiful and provocative...

The two prance about the stage with a desk chair (the third in the trio) to some very fine Scarlatti. Squirming under the chair, carrying it, carrying each other, stomping heartily to the music, the bespecatcled Miss Golod (whoever heard of a ballerina wearing glasses?) and the scruffy, blue-jeaned Mr. Mansbach made flagrant nonsense of both the old Master and the art of dance. It was a daring, enjoyable piece, summarizing the evening's offerings with appealing honesty...

...down the line at Knight newspapers. Reporters are free to pursue a story as long as they think it is worth it. This has produced some memorable series, including the Free Press's Pulitzer-winning analysis of last summer's ghetto riots. For five weeks a trio of reporters investigated every one of the 43 deaths that occurred during the riots. As a result of the series, three white policemen and a Negro watchman were indicted this month for conspiring to violate the civil rights of eight Negroes held in a motel (two of the Negroes had been...

Here, as in Nabokov's more sophisticated novels, an important theme is the nature of fiction itself. By putting his comic trio through a series of abstract stances-a modification of the futurist and expressionist influences that swept the arts in the '20s-he never allows the reader to forget that fiction is essentially artifice. In King, Queen, Knave, the artifice may be a little too obvious, but intelligence and wit keep it working smoothly to the end. Nabokov himself could well have been thinking of this "bright brute" when he described a certain variety of butterfly...

With a 9-4 season record, Keefe has held down the number one spot for the Crimson all year despite the strength of second man Bruce Lopucki and an amazing sophomore trio of Yank Heisler, Jack Purdy, and Joe Tibbetts. Since his first match for Harvard as a junior, he has rolled up a 19-7 overall record...
