...Mother (Amy Dolby). Booth plays a bungling British constable who sees all women as embodiments of virtue and makes his fortune by mistake. His principal errors involve: Stella Stevens, as a slatternly village dressmaker who tricks him into entombing her murdered husband; Honor Blackman, irrationally seductive as a mad neo-Nazi entomologist who breeds spiders the size of St. Bernards; and Shirley Jones, as a revolutionist who enlists Booth's aid to overthrow a Central American republic while pretending to make a movie about it.

The bill now goes to the Senate, where the Christian Democrats, Monarchists and neo-Fascists have 150 out of 320 seats, and Premier Moro is in a double bind. If the bill becomes law, Socialist Vice Premier Pietro Nenni may carry out his threat to walk out of the coalition and bring down the government. If Moro amends the amendment, back to the bill...
