...wonder if whoever did the story on Rome's Fiurnicino Airport [Dec. 25] has heard a joke that sums up the situation neatly. It goes something like this: A Pan Am flight (we'll call it 123) is approaching Rome and the tower tells the pilot to go to 10,000 ft. and hold. He acknowledges, and his first officer says, "Say, didn't I hear them give the same instructions to BOAC 456, coming in behind us?" "Hey, I think so," says the captain.

...mechanic is a hit man. The titular mechanic of this misshapen thriller is Arthur Bishop (Charles Bronson), a name so bland that we must assume the producers were at pains to appease antidefamation groups of virtually every nationality.

The neo-Nazi National Democratic Party, as well as the far-left parties, got only a fraction...
...myth of the West originated in blood and mud, both of which are in abundant evidence here, along with every other cliché of what has come to be called the antiwestern. The action takes place mostly on the main street of Coffeyville, Kans., which looks like a bayou. Whoever is not shot there is pretty sure to catch it in the saloon, which, like every other set in the picture, has been designed and dressed to look determinedly shabby. The actors wear worn clothes coated with dirt, as if they had all been wrestling in an anthracite pit. Their...
