...front, it's usually bye-bye, baby." A case of locker-room braggadocio? The record backs him up. In the Professional Golfers' Association's first two tournaments this year, Miller's performance has been astonishing. By the time the players arrived in Pebble Beach, Calif., for the third event last week, Jack Nicklaus was grumbling: "All I've heard about since I got out here is Johnny Miller...
...discussion of concert ticket prices segues into a rendition of Find the Cost of Freedom), and heavy images (a needle stashed inside a Bible) of terror and salvation.

Scaramanga's evil henchman is a dwarf, and Scaramanga himself (Christopher Lee), an unusually unimpressive villain, would be a dead cinch to spot on a beach since he has three nipples. Nothing much happens to any of these characters that has not happened before, and better. Maud Adams and Britt Ekland do, however, make a couple of mildly decorative, active heroines in a series notably short on them (Diana Rigg, in On Her Majesty's Secret...
