Loewe thinks of music in terms of color, once turned out compositions that reflected what he saw on an artist's canvases. For visitors he will still improvise "colors" on the piano, turning out a peacock- blue sonata or red march from three notes offered him at random.

It was half an inch in diameter and was filled with ether. "Ether is cheap," explains Glaser, "and I could get it at the chemistry store without any red tape...
...trust in it, wells up in the faces and voices and movements of the actors in the professionals, Lindfors and Myhers no less than in the immigrant woman, Mrs. Barile, who was discovered sitting on her front steps on Sullivan Street few days after shooting started, and who died without seeing the finished film. Real life again and again galvanizes the spectator with its unreasonable significance, disheveled perfection, artless...
