...inside one of the seminary's U-shaped, granite buildings, the energetic theologian turned to the question of church and state, and the discussion reached back to Thomas Aquinas and back to the transitional thought of 16th century St. Robert Bellarmine.* At one point. Father Murray had to interrupt the interview for his afternoon lecture to some 200 young seminarians. Mrs. Arno, who earlier in the day had mistakenly entered a cloistered area of the tree-lined campus, was not allowed to attend the class; Auchincloss went, admitted to his host that he had some difficulty keeping awake during...

Kalatozov can seldom resist the brilliant angle and the trenchant frame, even when they interrupt the story, and his glorious effects of cutting and lighting are often spectacularly inappropriate. But somehow the vital extravagance of the film engages the spectator and whirls him along in its whirling mood. This mood is personified in Heroine Samoilova, an astonishingly imaginative young actress who is the type of Tolstoy...
