...Shirley's, she staunchly defends the arrangement: "If they don't understand, that's their problem." Understanding will scarcely be helped by the movie, My Geisha, although Scriptwriter Norman Krasna says he based it on real life-all about a star's husband (played by Yves Montand) who wants to make it on his own in Japan. Deadpans Shirley: "I've got to be good in this picture, or I'll make my husband look like a schnook...

Where the Hot Wind Blows (Titanus; Embassy). "Gigolo!" hoots a smalltime Italian racketeer (Yves Montand) when his son tries to run away with a wealthy married woman (Melina Mercouri). In shame the boy abandons her. His father then looks the woman over, approves of his son's selection and announces suavely: "You cannot go home. My room is at your disposal." Stunned, she follows him. In the room he grabs her, kisses her, slugs her, rips her dress away. "Please," she murmurs seductively, "turn out the light." Triumphant, he turns to do as she asks, turns back in horror...

Among the younger artists, none were equal in quality, and some seemed to be more action painters than surreal. Robert Rauschenberg...

...years, Monroe did not make a film and Miller wrote almost nothing noteworthy. Then, after Some Like It Hot, she made Let's Make Love early this year, and gossip columns began to pant with rumors of a Monroe affair with Co-Star Yves Montand. Purring that he was "amazed and flattered," and full of assurance that he would never toss his eleven-year marriage to Actress Simone Signoret "overboard for one performance," Montand did make one Gallically candid revelation: "Marilyn is a simple girl, without any guile," he said. "I once thought she was sophisticated, like some...

...American advertising and motion pictures. "Last night," she remarked, "we saw a film with a very strange name--Let's Make Love. We had heard of Miss Monroe as a famous American artist; but in this picture we never saw her wearing a dress, she was always half naked. Yves Montand is also well known in the Soviet Union. But he is known as a serious actor, not as he is in this film. We did not like it; it was without art, without ideas, bourgeois...
