     I saw the new Cheech and Chong movie, "Still  Smoking,"
last  weekend.   My life will not have been in vain if I can
save just one netter from seeing this movie.  My LORD,  this
is  one incoherent flick.  The style, wit, and continuity of
the earlier C&C movies are absent from this one.   It  seems
like  the  movie  was  a  slap-dash  film  of the latest C&C
stand-up routines.  The routines may be bearable to an audi-
ence  sharing  a  communal  experience  (and  probably under
Columbian influences), but the  shticks just  fall  flat  on
the big screen.  Unfortunately, the movie will probably make
a bundle, just like the first four.  I guess this shows  how
desperate  we  all  are for a good comedy.  Charlie Chaplin,
where are you now that we need you?
