Robert Burns
In 1970 Shirley MacLaine
produced an agreeable memoir
e n t itled, "Don't Fall Off the
Mountain" about her life as a
dancer, actress, world traveller
and political activist. Since then
she has survived a disastrous
television series and Senator
McGovern's presidential
campaign, accounts of which
form the first half of her latest
book, "You Can Get There From
Here."
The more interesting half is
devoted to "There" - China -
which she visited in 1973 at the
invitation of the Chinese foreign
minister, as the leader of a group
of "regular" women - i.e.,
women not affiliated as a group
with any profession or political
party. The band selected
resembled a World War II bomber
crew, but female and in keeping
with the current ethnic mixing
trend: a poor southern black, a
Navajo Indian, a conservative
working-class white, a Puerto
Rican, a 12-ydar-old schoolgirl, a
cultural anhropologist, an affluent
Long Island Republican, and a
four.member feminist c~mera
crew.
The mixture was guaranteed
not to jell, and it didn't. Under
the stress of unfamiliar
surroundings, and lacking the
cohesiveness conferred by a
common profession or ideology,
the group began to disintegrate.
Visits to schools, nurseries and
hospitals caused them to
reexamine assumptions about
child-rearing, education and
western medical practice; the
absence of crime, the lack of
emphasis on sex and competition,
and the kindness and apparent
serenity of their selfless hosts
challenged their attitudes toward
property, social justice and the
malleableness of the human
personality.
Shaken, they became ill,
quarrelled, behaved badly. Some,
Miss McLaine notes with asperity,
"referred constantly to their
mothers." In Peking, while Miss
lacLaine trekked to the Great
Hall of the People, attended a
performance of The Red
Detachment of Women, and
discussed artistic freedom with
the wife of Chou En-lai, several
members of the group preferred
to drink with a party of
non-Oriental males and found
cultural sustenance in "Butch
Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" at
the Canadian embassy.
In the end, most of the
women agreed that China had
changed theft lives; for Shirley
MacLaine, the change resulted in
her appearance as a dancer in Las
Vegas.
