It would have been much easier if they had been living in different countries. The contribution of England's coziness . . . plus the English sense of fair play would not allow F. to move in on M.'s problem. In France, where fair play obviously did not exist, these problems would not have arisen. The States also would not have permitted such a situation to develop. One would not expect someone at Berkeley to ignore a first class problem merely because someone at Cal Tech. had started first.

The paramount use of glass as a symbol is the goldfish bowl. It is central to much of the action; Schlesinger even takes camera shots through it, The fish -- you guessed it -- represent Diana and Robert. (To emphasize the parallel, Robert's surname is Gold.) After Robert leaves her, Diana returns to the apartment with Malcolm, an effeminate photographer (Ronald Curram). They drink and eat huge amounts of garish delicacies, and they pollute the fish bowl with them. The scene ends with the goldfish floating lifelessly on the surface of the fouled water.- верно пишет Tony Macklin.

И почему-то подумает про Москву.

Я считаю, что пост президента должен занять человек, у которого харю с похмелья в три дня не уделаешь. А разве такие есть среди нас?
— Нет таких, — хором отвечали делегаты.
— Мою, например, харю — разве нельзя уделать в три дня и с похмелья?
Секунду-две все смотрели мне в лицо оценивающе, а потом отвечали хором: «Можно».
