Marcorelles concluded the program with a brief talk on the modern cinema, followed by the showing of Andre Heinrich's film, "Nuit et Brouillard." The film illustrated the horrors of the German concentration camps. Marcorelles called it "an honest film," but its many revolting scenes disturbed some of the audience...
When Jules et Jim left the Fenway last week, the best actress in the world remained behind to speak softly and move beautifully in the best movie of the year. La Notte must inevitably be compared with the other fine films recently off the boat--and it stands up to them all. Jeanne Moreau need not to compared to anyone...
Next day. Premier Benkhedda caved in and accepted the authority of the new politburo. Though Ben Bella was still 285 miles away in Tlemcen, Benkhedda's Cabinet ministers began to flee Algiers, leaving Benkhedda holed up in the Palais d'Eté, guarded by a company of loyal soldiers.

General Dynamics, which lost a massive $143 million on its jet-transport debacle (TIME, Sept. 15 et seq.), led the red-ink list. It was followed by J.I. Case (loss: $32 million), Yuba Consolidated ($14 million), Ling-Temco-Vought ($13 million), Underwood ($9 million) and Hearst ($9 million). Of these seven heavy losers, all but Ling-Temco-Vought had also...
