Patrick Sullivan's plans are indefinite. Though the film office is closed, the church will still offer ratings to diocesan weeklies, but with vastly reduced impact. Significantly, one of the most passionate epitaphs for Sullivan's Review came not from a Catholic but from Julius Schatz of the American Jewish Congress. Said he: "The death of the film Review is an American tragedy."
