Adam's Rib and Woman of the Year-Of all the Tracy-Hepburn films, these two are probably the best. What is there to say about the greatest couple ever to hit the silver screen? If you haven't seen it, go, although if you wait long enough you'll see them on the Late Show one night. Hepburn as a career woman and Tracy as her jealous, decidedly unliberated husband are not to be missed.

The End-Is the only good thing about this movie. Ambitions Burt Reynolds takes on writing, directing, and acting chores in this clunker about a man with a terminal disease, and poor Burt fails at two out of three (guess which ones). This is the idea for a comedy? Ha.

Bananas-Early Woody Allen, and while this film surely lacks the polish of his later work, it has more of the wild, reckless humor and endless one-liners that made Woody famous before everyone knew he was neurotic and an intellectual, too. In this one, he plays a nebbish, of course, who by weird circumstance ends up leading a Latin American revolution and reclaiming his lost sweetheart (Louise Lasser). Best moments Howard Cosell covering the assassination of a banana republic dictator and Woody ordering 500 hamburgers to go, 300 with cole slaw....

The Turning Point-Herbert Ross does a great job directing this story of the ballet, faded hopes and lost youth. Shirley Maclaine, as the one-time dancer who gave it up, and Anne Bancroft as her friend who went on to fame, provide the firepower, and Leslie Browne and Mikhail Baryshnikov supply the looks and the dancing talent. A fine film, and Bancroft has never been better since The Graduate.

Dear Inspector-The New England premiere of Phillippe deBroca's latest, a charming combination of love story and mystery. The combination doesn't quite make it, but the combination of Annie Giradot as the harried inspector on a big case and falling in love all at once and Phillipe Noiret as her college professor-lover. Entertaining and very pleasant, but don't go looking for a big mystery....

The Swarm-Bzzzzzzzzzzz. Bees eat New Hampshire, Vermont, your little brother, film critics, movie projectors. You gotta be warped to want to see this. Bring your netting and flamethrower.
