Savant's new reviews today are

The Trip to Bountiful  MGM
Hindle Wakes  Milestone/Image
The Quiet American (1958)  MGM and
Teacher's Pet  Paramount

A pleasant Saturday is upon us. I am reading about the death of Maria Schell, a favorite actress I have only seen in a few roles. Her role in The Hanging Tree is nothing short of wonderful, and there is a long list of promising European pictures she's in that I'd like to see some day.

I've been going back over previous reviews correcting errors, some pointed out by readers (like how to spell the word "lullaby") and others that I can't believe I've made. Extra words, missing words, all kinds of craziness that is just invisible when one is proofing in too big of a hurry. It used to be that putting anything into print was so costly that typos and errors were exceptions, but now we all have to be our own typesetters and publishers....

Thanks for all the notes. Back on Tuesday. Glenn Erickson
