When Shakespeare made characters out of medieval chronicles just like the living English people he knew, and wrote words for them which often sounded like real talk in spite of being broken up into iambic lines, he was doing what the producers of this cinema have done in their turn. They have created no pedantic replica of Elizabethan comedy, but a vivid, hilarious farce. They have paid Shakespeare the double compliment of using hardly a word that he did not write and of brightening his meaning with new pieces of pantomime that are exactly Elizabethan because they...
...facilities of the Bush Terminal with those of Lassen & Co., a Swiss holding company that controls 54 distributing agencies throughout Europe.

All considered him more important than the season's other violin prodigies?Giula...

Frankly, being a conscientious fellow, the Vagabond has felt it his duty to keep an eye on things. So he has done his share of watching and warding...
