YESTERDAY'S IMMORTAL MASTERPIECE (all in the same review):

"BE WARNED -- A MAN MIGHT DIE LAUGHING AT SLY FOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

--The late [sic] Clive Barnes, late of the Times, writing on the overrated Larry Gelbart's adaptation of Jonson's Volpone, on December 15, 1976.

"All the way back to biblical times of yore, rape has been one of the most heinous offenses known to man. And it can be pretty rough on women, too."

A line from Sly Fox.

"A relic."

Ben Brantley [!!!!!] in his review of a revival of Sly Fox, on April 2, 2004.

P. S. I see the Times is now letting readers review the reviews. But why stop at the reviews? Let the readers review the stories! Let second-guessing prevail! Heck the Times can't do worse than the amateurs.
