...lady, Miss Irenic Burns, had come over from South Cove where she said she was faced with a similar situation. "This was what the Jews did to the Arabs," she said. She looked out to the Street, "All those cops for two old ladies." The crowd appeared to resent the police, but the police did not seem to be enjoying their job. One man pointed out that they were only doing a task they hated. If they refused to do it, they could be fired...
They turned out to be well-intentioned but poorly informed people who could not solve real problems. Another kind of trouble has arisen in Maine, where down-Easters resent being told what to do with their land. Many have stubbornly refused to pay any attention to their conservation commissions...
...right-hand traffic in 1967. According to his critics, that was the only time Olof has moved away from the left since he started shaving. Conservatives in his own country call him a renegade from his class. Staid politicians elsewhere in Scandinavia consider him too impulsive.

Jean-Luc Godard would certainly resent the comparison, but he makes movies the way some manufacturers make washing machines-with planned obsolescence. Only a few years after their release, Godard films become museum pieces. His innovations are adopted by other film makers, who (like Haskell Wexler in the kinetic Medium Cool) either put his techniques to better dramatic use or (like Agnes Varda in the festival's ludicrous Lions Love) sink beneath the weight of aimless stylistic decoration. Le Go/ Savoir features Jean-Pierre Léaud and Juliet Berto sitting around a TV studio engaging...
