...live one day more than the day I am going to die." He told the rally of 20,000 Spanish-speaking New Yorkers that "I came for a suffering, backward and hungry Latin America." His aim: "Humanism-liberty with bread." The crowd took up the chant, "Fidel Castro! Fidel Cas...
Love Is My Profession (Raoul J. Levy; Kingsley International) is easily the peep-showiest, cheap-thrillingest of all the Brigitte Bardot pictures-and probably the best. Topnotch Whodunit Writer Georges Simenon furnished the novel (En Cas de Malheur) on which the film is based. Jean Gabin was hired to top the title.

The whole moon has a better vacuum than...
...mattered little that BB's movie, En Cas de Malheur (In Case of Emergency), a Georges Simenon story about a successful lawyer's fatal obsession with a young slut failed to win (and that Japans "Rickshaw Man" did). A traveling movie fan named Elsa Maxwell just about guaranteed Malheur's American triumph by announcing: "Bardot is a nothing, a sexual little kitten of no importance. She has no talent except for undressing onscreen. This is a very bad thing for American youth...
