Worth a look, but I think it's quite boring compared to the
Berkeley campus. Once you get beyond the central quadrangle
with it's central church, everything looks subordinated to
that structure. And Palm Drive? Gimme a break! Some
easterner's idea of what (northern, no less) California
*ought* to look like.

It's open, all right, but there aren't many silent movies
playing, if any. Brando's _The Wild One_ just finished and
tomorrow starts _Top Hat_ and _My Man Godfrey_. Next week
Brando plays Antony on the weekend, and then the next
weekend it's something about a little girl who doesn't
believe but still gets the posh abode she desires on some
numbered street or other. Well that plays all the next week
and then the pièce de resistance on Christmas Eve is
something about some guy running wildly through snowy
streets greeting various buildings and being very happy that
he can't hear in one ear. |
