One of the benefits of subscribing to the New York Times is that you get access to the Times Machine, their on-line archive of every page of every issue of the newspaper dating back to day one. In researching a film review, we couldn't help but browse through the film section. It simply reinforced the opinion that during this era, you could throw a dart on any date on a calendar and be assured that a wealth of worthy flicks were in release. In this case, "The Odd Couple" was a massive hit at Radio City Music Hall while other films, ranging from "B" movies to prestigious hits, were gracing Gotham theaters. They include "Half a Sixpence", "The Producers", "The Detective", "The Devil's Brigade", "The Graduate", "Doctor Doolittle", "The Swimmer", the reissue of "Gone with the Wind", "2002: A Space Odyssey", "Wild in the Streets", "Belle de Jour", "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" and other gems. Those really were the days!
