...hard judge. In 1964, for instance, it was not Senator Barry Goldwater's warlike remarks about Cuba that cooked his goose in New Hampshire. It was his existential dismay one night in Littleton, as he was drawn through the town in a cart pulled by a Shetland pony. The Senator not only looked like a man imprudent enough to let himself be talked into sitting in a pony cart; he looked as if the pony were in control of the situation...
...second clip of Amy Carter walking to her integrated school. Faye Dunaway won her Oscar for Chinatown, not this lemon. Peter Finch is dead, and far be it from me to talk about the dead. A dignified William Holden as network news chief comes off rather like a Shetland pony in an 8 x 11 porno still--he looks more dignified than the questionable debutantes around him.

When they are there, the banister is covered with an array of jeans and corduroy trousers -the working outfit for both husband and wife...
...school. Faye Dunaway won her Best Actress award for Chinatown, not this lemon. Peter Finch is dead, and far be it from us to talk about the dead. William Holden turns in a solid performance as the network news chief, but the dignified Holden comes off rather like a Shetland pony in an 8 x 11 porno still-he looks more dignified than the questionable debutantes around him. Paddy Chayevsky's script is polemical, cliched, and, like most tracts--boring. This film is a real disappointment; there is a great story there in the world of Rather. Reasoner, Cronkite...
