Electra, my love
Little fugitive (7)
The stolen children
Gloria (John Casavettes) 7
The knack and how to get it
Johnny got his gun 7

Fantastic planet 7
Ashes and Diamonds 8 Masterpiece!
Vagabond (Agnès Varda) 7
A world apart
Three complete classic of the soviet avant-garde (earth, chess fever, the end of St. peterburg)
The red and the white 7 (an interesting movie)
Artists under the big top: perplexed (another title: The artist in the circus dome: confused)

Urga
