Harvard's baseball team, which has alternated hair-raising wins with agonizing losses all season, long, got a new script yesterday and eviscerated Brown, 16 to 3, in Providence...
Bergman sings very well, but over-acts. Smock acts very well (his recipe for sorcerer's stew should not be missed), but his voice is weak. The rest of the cast doesn't, on the whole, do justice to Conley's script. Eric Carriker is very convincing as one of the robbers, while Glen Buscher is not. The others are nothing more than dull, although it was somewhat unfortunate that Bob Russman's voice was both the loudest and worst...

In cooperation with light and set designers he has solved the technical problems involved in staging 26 closely connected scenes...

With Old Testament wrath, he pursues Chief Sierra Charriba through the wilderness in A.D. 1865. But once Heston gets on Mexican soil, Director Sam Peckinpah (Ride the High Country) lets Dundee ramble so freely that the Apaches are soon lost in subplots...
