Almost a Relief. In anticipation of the bill, in fact, the industry has already begun to put many safety features into its cars as standard equipment. All 1967 models will have steering columns that telescope forward on impact, dual braking systems to stop a car if a single set fails and anchorages for front-seat shoulder harnesses. Other improvements will come along later, based largely on the 26 safety features that manufacturers must build into cars that they sell to the Government.

Director Bryan Forbes (King Rat) reveals an unexpected gift for utter nonsense, using every period cliché and corny camera trick that might imaginably be fermented into vintage black comedy. Some of the gags crumble on impact, others are stretched out like taffy, but there is enough fun left over to leave most moviegoers happily wallowing in greed, sex, homicide, body snatching and other nefarious diversions...
