'VI R I DIANA'
SIR,—Isabel Quigley's review of l3ufluel's film Viridiana deserves a prize for the brilliance of its style, the soundness of its esthetic and the quickness of its moral judgments. It is the only criticism of the film I have read that goes to the heart of the matter. If all the good people were clever, and all clever people were good . . 0 Rare Miss Quigly! O Happy Spectator!
