The tone of the film is amusing. The characters are harmless but not thoughtless. The film empha­ sizes the notion that these characters represent people, not cari­ catures. Often, though, by not critiquing the characters and situations, the film misses the opportunity to make a statement. The tone is sometimes so gentle that the film becomes boring. "Metropolitan" is at its best when it dares to comment on the action. One night Gynthia, a debutante who considers herself a femme fatale, brings her current beau Rick Von Sloneker to Sal­ ly's. When SFRP leader Nick arrives, stories he has told to dis­ credit Von Sloneker come back to haunt him. The arrogant Von Sloneker accuses Nick of smearing his good name. First they trade insults, then Von Sloneker bloodies Nick's nose. The scene works well because the film gives Rick Von Sloneker a strong personality. The film cuts repeatedly to shots of him snearing and smirking. Nick is permitted a more distinct personality. With Nick's lie, the film shows the tension beneath the arrogance, the crack in his veneer of sophistication. The way the scene is orchestrated and cut together — com­ plete with melodramatic reaction shots and Nick's banishment from the SFRP at the end of the scene — highlights the ludi­ crous aspects of pride and honor. At such moments, "Metropolitan"'s characters become seductive, and the film manages to convey the depth of personality it so desperately needs to be effective. \R&R\ SPECIAL TO R&R The biggest problem with strip poker: Where can you hide the aces?

Upon introducing himsell and receiving no reply, the visitor held up his index fin­ ger. The one-eyed monk then held up two fingers, to which the visitor held up three. At this point the monk held up his fist. The accolite paused, contemplated the monk, and then retreated, de­ jected. As he passed on the way out, the master noted the ac- colite's frustration and inquired as to why he was leaving. "Oh, Master, I have clearly met my match, and been bested in philosophical debate." "But how is this so?" asked the master. "I held up one finger to represent the Buddha. The monk then held up up two fingers to signify the Buddha and his teachings, to which I held up three, to show the Buddha, his teachings and his followers. He then held up his fist to demonstrate that the Buddha, his teach­ ings and his followers are all one and the same." As the master watched the accolite walk away, he was approached by the one-eyed monk, who was clearly agi­ tated. "Where is that scoundrel?" he demanded of his men­ tor. "He has left," responded the master. "But what has upset you so?" "Well, when he discovered that our conversation was to be speechless, he held up one finger to show that I had one eye. I then held up two to commend him on his luck for having two eyes, and he held up three to show that between us we had three eyes. That's when I raised my fist to show that he was a half-wit and if he didn't stop bothering me, I would punch his lights out!"
