...Paul R. Hawley, onetime Veterans Administration medical boss and now executive director for Blue Cross-Blue Shield, is dead set against compulsory health insurance. He is also a realist.

Hawley had been talking to people all over the country, he said, and "I've come to the conclusion, with a great deal of regret, that the confidence of some of our people has been shaken...

Director Jules (Naked City) Dassin is a realist with a varnished style that switches from arty to operatic to documentary. His highway scenes give a sense of speeding movement and the ominous effect on the driver of cars hurtling past in a metallic rhythm.

Clark really hits his stride in the description of curt's gradual disintegration under the onslaught of snow, time, hunger, fatigue, fear, and his own imagination. The long, magnificently told story of curt's hunt...

Courbet did see the world with a childlike directness and delight. He painted it, according to one contemporary, "as simply as an apple tree bears apples." He didn't much like being called a realist-it was a term of opprobrium in some circles in those days, too-but he used to pound on the table and insist that painting was a physical language having nothing to do with history, romance or religion. "Show me an angel," he shouted, "and I will paint...
