Liv Ullmann

Following are reviews for the American Film Institute Film Festival. All screenings are at the Cineplex Odeon Century Plaza Cinemas . 'Farewell Moscow' Italy, 1987, 102 minutes , 8 p.m . This exceedingly bleak and conventional film by Mauro Bolognini boasts another heroic performance by Liv Ullmann as Ida Nudel, a Soviet Jew who endured a long and harrowing martyrdom for simply having practiced her faith.

Sylvia Sidney, recuperating at home from double pneumonia, still plans to attend a New York ceremony that will honor her with a lifetime achievement award. The 79-year-old actress, who was released from Danbury Hospital on Monday, is scheduled to appear at Radio City Music Hall on Saturday for NBC's "Night of 100 Stars," where she will be honored along with Katharine Hepburn, Helen Hayes, Liv Ullmann, Sidney Lumet and Joseph L. Mankiewicz.

Paul Kohner, agent to such legendary stars as Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich and Erich von Stroheim, died Wednesday night at UCLA Medical Center after a long illness. He was 85. Kohner, a native of what is now Czechoslovakia, came to the United States in 1920 and found work as an office boy at Universal Pictures, where he rose to producer of such films as the silent version of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" and "The Phantom of the Opera." He established the Paul Kohner Agency in 1938.

Norma Aleandro, the Argentine actress whose role in the Oscar-winning "The Official Story" brought her international attention, has arrived here to make a movie with Scandinivian star Liv Ullmann. Asked what it would be like to work with the Norwegian actress, Aleandro replied: "It is more difficult to work with a bad actor, than with one who knows how to do his work." They will be making "Gaby," directed by Mexico's Luis Mandoki.
