...rare transformation takes place in this remarkable documentary film about the efforts of elderly parents to prepare a middleaged, retarded son for life without them. The first views of Philly, as 52-year-old Philip is called, show a stocky, dull-faced man with an unshaven jaw, thick lips and a gap in his mouth where several front teeth are missing. His speech-grunted single words, short sentences that do little better than repeat what has just been said to him -makes it clear that his intelligence is severely limited.

...dispatch office of Executive Aviation. EA, its twin-engined carriers and a snaky Lear jet, flew quick-order runs of car parts to GM plants around the country. Everything, from the reined jet to a sharp-boned and muscular Doberman, jutted sleek, Steinberg angles.

...around the Kennedy Center, burning gas, inhaling everybody else's fumes. He was caught in a monstrous mechanical snake, frustrated and angry. The insurance costs on his own 1971 Ford station wagon and 1973 Maverick jumped. A battery went dead one rainy morning, and he had to drive unshaven to Sears for a replacement. There was a line, so he had to take a number, like somebody at a meat market. The waiting seemed to take forever. Waste, waste...
