Country Calves. These stars, with few exceptions, are Europeans: Michael Caine, Jeanne Moreau, Julie Christie, Maggie Smith, Richard Burton, Oskar Werner, Marcello Mastroianni, Omar Sharif, Anouk Aimee, David Hemmings, Jean-Paul Belmondo, Simone Signoret, Yves Montand, Rita Tushingham, Melina Mercouri, Ingrid Thulin, Tom Courtenay, Albert Finney, Susannah York, Samantha Eggar, Sarah Miles, Terence Stamp, David Warner, Alan Bates?and the Beatles. Hollywood's contribution to the constellation is insignificant: James Coburn, Walter Matthau, Lee Marvin are big boys at the box office now, but for some curious reason, Hollywood has yet to bring on a new and better class...
...European actresses, for the most part, are a flat negation of everything Hollywood thinks a girl should have. Rita Tushingham, though her eyes are a glowing glory, has a porridgy complexion and a walloping set of country calves. Julie Christie has a face straight out of Terry and the Pirates and the sort of figure that looks better to a camera than it does to a man.

...Hyman and Nikki Seekers. Others breeze in from the coal-mining North Country. There are bluff Yorkshiremen like the P.M. or Actor Peter O'Toole, Albert Finney from Manchester, Playwright Shelagh Delaney, who wrote A Taste of Honey in Salford at the age of 18, and Rita Tushingham, 24, a onetime Liverpool typist who played the lead in the 1961 movie. And, of course, Liverpool also produced the four ingenuous teen-agers whose Mersey beat has circled the world, earned them a group fortune that now stands at $6,000,000 and won them medals from Queen Elizabeth...
