Lester is too good a director to let the special effects department steal the flick. d film. Expect a Although Lester does have moments when he allows himself to slip as a director, he sets high standards for himself. Even with his low pants, his films are much better than average fare. If you are a fan of Richard Lesters movies, dont expect miracles. I, for one, wonder why he has even embarked on this project. Perhaps he felt a need for variety in the films he was directing Juggernaut does not seem like the type of film a sensitive film artist would undertake. Because of the nature of the suspense film, there is little latitude for the type of humanity which Lester puts in almost all of the other films that he has directed. Juggernaut is probably one of the best of the disaster films that will be shown to the public this vear.

About this time last year, a young female poet named Erica Jong published what might be the most controversial novel written by a woman, well, in a lot of years. Her publisher didnt plan on ine book becoming a runaway best seller, and most bookstores were out of stock by Christmas of last year. Now, however, the novel is out in paperback, and will most likely be as popular in the lower priced edition as it was in hard cover. Perhaps the main reason for the book's success is that Ms. Jong allows her to tell her story with the sort of absolute candor that has for centuries been permitted" only to men. Isadora Wing; the heroine, words. All the uses four-letttime. But while the language is or will be a bit shocking for some readers, it isnt the reason Fear of Flying doesnt merely progress; it races across Europe like a 747. And like all good works of fiction, Ms. Jong ties her theme closely to her plot. The theme is the archetypal Jourthe ney for plot is a mad, existential trip across Europe in the company of an uninhibited Laingian analyst who seems anti-heroi- ne er Days Night, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Petulia, and The by Alan Crooks Its Hard to embody all of Isadoras erotic fantasies. Briefly, the plot begins on a trip to Vienna to attend a conference psychoanalytic where Isadoras husband is to deliver a professional paper. It is during the conference that she meets the English analyst, Adrian Goodlove. And Isadora flips. She leaves her husband and flies away with Adrian. During the course of the jaunt across Europe, Isadora manages to find time to think in the midst of the chaotic changing-partner- s scene. As the trip progresses, Isadora spends more and more time reevaluating her past life in the hope of making some sense of the present. She is haunted by past lovers, former and husbands, miscellaneous strangers in the night. She is also haunted by her outrageous family (Jewish, of course): a mother who well-crafte- Musketeers. Naturally, it came as quite a surprise to learn that Lester had directed a real potboiler that seems like a copy of the Hie Poseidon money-makAdventure, but Lester did direct the film Juggernaut, so film lovers can at least draw some conclusions about the film from Lesters past performances as a director. Expect good performances from the actors. Lester has had great success with nonactors (the Beatles) and actresses that were considered poor (Raquel Welch), Richard Harris, Omar Sharif, and David Hemmings should prove to be very good material for Lester to work with. Expect suspense. Lester is the type of director who uses time well. Juggernaut will probably put Hie Poseidon Adventure, a film of little er film by an ex- director, Roman Polanski, is being featured at the Opera House this week. Chinatown, a suspense film that begs comparison with the best films of that genre, features formances Nicholson excellent Having already mentioned decadence once in my column, it now becomes an easy matter to mention Luis Bunuel, whose name is per- synonymous with decadence.

Bound to be considered one of the top ten films of the year, and probably will win an Academy Award or two (if that means anything to you), Chinatown contains enough of Polanski's genius to make the film a candidate for an e classic heavyweight filmmaker whose favorite subjects are the spiritual poverty of the church, and the insensitivity and decadence of the middle class. all-tim- There is little more I can say about the film except that it is not the film to see when in the big city looking yuks.

Not Tristana is a love story, except unlike the normal love story, it is the story of a greedy possessive love, a narcissistic love that smothers and turns the other person's emotions to hate. It stars one of the most beautiful women in the world, Catherine Deneuve. The plot has as many turns and seemingly blind alleys as the New York subway has when you are a Nebraska farm boy. Polanski adds new dimensions to the suspense film when he involves politics in the murder. And as it has been pointed out to me, the films tone drips of decadence. Polanski has proven that a good film need not be to the masses, for the majority of the viewers will find that Chinatown is a gripping drama in the tradition of Hitchcock.
