Scope and content

173 Riverside Dr. -- The film is a huge success, went to see it with Tom Hulce and saw huge crowds of people; isn't too happy with the film, is almost too 'pop' in its characterisation and Americanisation, but is glad it is a success; tries to read as few reviews as possible, 'since I believe only the bad ones (as usual) and some are a bit deserved'. Letter is possibly incomplete, as it lacks a closing signature.
