...Casa-B, much less leave the Square with him for a quiet life on the Cape. As written, the part of Gaylord is too much sermon and too simple to offer a meaningful alternative to Gentry's glittering evil. Hoagland's acting accentuates this defect in the script; his morality has no teeth...
Though the action covers less than a day in the life of Dr. Matthew Carter, this new novel is practically a shooting script for a new TV series. All the elements of Casey and Kildare are abundantly present: 1) gruff-seeming doctors beset by demanding patients, 2) flippant nurses, 3) crisp dialogue given a spurious weight by repetition ("Are you sure?

Walker, 21-year-old son of Jennifer Jones and the late Robert Walker, is the ideal idealistic dogface-and he has the looks and the charm of his famous father. What's wrong with the picture is its script. Scenarist Henry Denker says some things that cannot be said too often: a life once lost can never be replaced; anyone who kills, kills part of himself; men are born with original virtue as well as original sin; peace is a moral as well as a political achievement.
