After the trial, Robert Crane speculated publicly that Crane's widow, Patricia Olson, might have had a role in instigating the crime. This book is very well put together, and I couldn't put it down. They pointed out that Crane had been videotaped and photographed in compromising sexual positions with numerous women, implying that any one of them, fearing blackmail, might have been the killer. The book rushes to assure us that Crane's many dalliances were with women who gave consent, but is completely silent on the fact that afterwards, many women were shocked to find out that the encounters had been filmed. Good interviewers know when to push, but there is a distinct impression that in this case, the interviewers threw mostly softball questions and were reluctant to elicit more details.

The plot concerns an East German Olympic star (Miss Sommer) who escapes from a lecherous East German propaganda minister (Werner Klemperer) by pole-vaulting over the Berlin Wall in her black-lace underthings. She is ultimately betrothed to a reformed American black-market operator (Bob Crane), who had previously tried to sell her to the East Germans and to the C.I.A. The real story, however, is a bit of bumbling, color pornography, a little nude film that lost its way on 42d Street and drifted on over to the Astor. It seems to view the cold war as a vast conspiracy to get people undressed, as clumsily and joylessly as possible. In various scenes, Miss Sommer has her sweatshirt removed by the weight of some medals on her front, her bathrobe drawn off by a vacuum cleaner, her black-lace underthings reeled in by some fishermen on a riverbank, her dress split by a climb up the wall of a hotel, and so on. For the special interest groups, there is a moment when Miss Sommer tears the skirt off a rather substantial matron in uniform, and another in which (still in her underthings) she runs a gantlet of machine- gun fire.

  • The Adventures of Antoine Doinel
    The Adventures of Antoine Doinel Dir: Francois Truffaut, France, 1959, 1962, 1968, 1970 and 1979 A review by Richard Harrison, Norwich City College, UK May 5th, 2004 marks the sixtieth birthday of Jean-Pierre Leaud, perhaps the most famous juvenile in world cinema history. As Antoine Doinel, his rise from pre-pubescent adolescent to fully grown man across five Francois Truffaut films between 1959 and 1979 is chronicled in a luxurious five DVD set from the Criterion Collection. The 400 Blows (1959), Antoine And Colette (1962), Stolen Kisses (1968), Bed And Board (1970) and Love On The Run (1979) provide not only a detailed insight into the cycle’s eponymous star but also a semi- autobiographical portrait of their director. The five DVD set is well packaged, with each film having been painstakingly remastered. The picture quality is outstanding, and reveals the true beauty of the films (compare the films with the short clips that appear in the television show extracts). Antoine and Colette appears on the same disc as the The 400 Blows which enables the fifth disc to include Les Mistons (1957), a delightful short film which acts as precursor to the Doinel cycle, and a fascinating documentary piece Working With Francois Truffaut: Claude de Givray and Bernard Revon (1986). All the discs have extras of some sort, ranging from Brian Stonehill’s superb, friendly commentary that accompanies the The 400 Blows to newsreel footage of the 1959 and 1968 Cannes Film Festivals, and numerous television interviews with Francois Truffaut and Jean- Pierre Leaud. An informative and nicely illustrated seventy-two page booklet completes what is an essential purchase for any film enthusiast, and reveals why Truffaut’s premature death in 1984 was such a catastrophic loss, not only for the world in general but for cinema in particular.

Don Rumsfeld suggested that I prepare a schedule proposal for a .Presidential news conference this week. The idea is to further capitalize on what the press and the public perceive to be a · successful foreign policy journey by the President. I recommend a televised news conference from the EOB Auditorium for 8:00p.m. Thursday, June·5. Eight o'clock p.m. is the preferable time because it causes the least disruption of television shows forcing cancellation only of three re-runs, two of which are not very popular anyhow. Thursday night is preferable to Friday because in the warm weather many potential viewers would be traveling for the weekend holiday.
