...exotic equivalent of the cross sections found in bomber crews in World War II movies-a soulful French muscian, a what-ho English blueblood, a hulking Russian who once guarded the Czar's family, and so on. Hackman and the chieftain of the hostile desert tribes (Ian Holm) are, naturally, old and respectful friends, although somehow Scriptwriter David Zelag Goodman neglected to make them former college roommates...

Newscaster Carl Stokes reproduced his Mother's Best Home Fried Chicken. Designer Pauline Trigere, wearing an elegant Trigere gown, made Spaghetti Pauline.

One thinks immediately of the model supporting cast: Richard Harris as Richard Lionheart, Denholm Elliott as Will Scarlett, Ian Holm as King John, Kenneth Haigh as the duplicitous Sir Ranulf. There is also the ravishing cinematography of David Watkin, who makes Sherwood into a forest well suited to legend. Particularly there is Sean Connery's Robin Hood, Nicol Williamson's Little John, Robert Shaw's winter-eyed Sheriff, Audrey Hepburn's Maid Marian-and Richard Lester, a film maker of deft wit and frequent brilliance...
