Review: The Gift Shop at the Los Angeles airports sets the scene when a fatally wounded man drops an object into a toy pig on display. The long-lost child of a rich old gentleman is threatened with death unless Jean Cunliffe and Harry Fairchild can make heads or tails out of the porcine clue and figure out the antics of a bizarre family of six polyglot children, an ascetic folksinger, and a faded spinster. Review: Lemon in the Basket is how Rufus Tylers wife describes the decidedly ordinary, beer-drinking member of the Tyler family, Very Important People. But the lemon doesn't really sour until the family is involved in an international emergency. Review: The Ballon Man brings us a struggling writer at odds with the Establishment who turns on with LSD and tunes into violence against his innocent wife, Sherry, and their baby boy. When Sherry takes a room in a boarding house on the seedy fringe of Los Angeles suburban sprawl, her husband tries to accuse her of being an unfit mother and snatch the child from her arms.

The gift shop.--Lemon in the basket.--The balloon man.

The Gift Shop at the Los Angeles airports sets the scene when a fatally wounded man drops an object into a toy pig on display. The long-lost child of a rich old gentleman is threatened with death unless Jean Cunliffe and Harry Fairchild can make heads or tails out of the porcine clue and figure out the antics of a bizarre family of six polyglot children, an ascetic folksinger, and a faded spinster.

Lemon in the Basket is how Rufus Tylers wife describes the decidedly ordinary, beer-drinking member of the Tyler family, Very Important People. But the lemon doesn't really sour until the family is involved in an international emergency.

The Ballon Man brings us a struggling writer at odds with the Establishment who turns on with LSD and tunes into violence against his innocent wife, Sherry, and their baby boy. When Sherry takes a room in a boarding house on the seedy fringe of Los Angeles suburban sprawl, her husband tries to accuse her of being an unfit mother and snatch the child from her arms.
