...Socialist whom the workers no longer trust. Although ideologically he would like to work with the progressive labor group, most of these are old Peronistas who don't believe he really has their best interests at heart. Romero is a victim of political obsolescence; he points out that the younger generation does not face the same kind of conflict because they weren't around when Peron took office. Thus the young people who identify with the Partido Peronista don't remember that Peron was a great admirer of Mussolini -- they don't remember how he whipped the labor unions into...
...third major project as a reporter for McCall's, Lynda Bird Johnson, 23, surveyed U.S. collegiate patois and produced a "Glossary of Campus Slang-How to Tell What in the World the Younger Generation Is Talking About."

Says Karel Reisz, who directed Morgan!: "The literacy gap between the people who are making films and those who are seeing them has narrowed." The kids still flip for spoof spectaculars like Goldfinger, but they just don't believe in 40-acre bathrooms and proscenium-size smiles. "The grand image no longer awes the spectator," says Director Claud Lelouch (Un Homme et Une Femme). "He recognizes a smooth but forced décor and performance...
