Nevertheless, the recent flaying Of
Katharine Hepburn by certain New
York scribes, and their assertion that
screen and stage tactics are about as
different as soup is from nuts, makes
one wonder II the Hollywood boys really
should 60 to all that trouble. Accord
ing to the Broadway penmen, acting
On the screen is so far removed from
footlight maneuvers that whereas Miss
Hepburn can get away with her high
monotone voice and long winded ges-
tllres before the camera she cannot
hope for stage immortality by the same.
From Hollywood observations we
should say that these gentlemen are
both right and wrong. While the ease
Of Q Blanche Bates performance does
not come from cinema devotion. at least
the theater is responsible for giving
many players certain tricks which are
invaluable as far as their screen play
ing Is concerned. Nor have we no
ticed that Frances Fuller, or Elizabeth
Patterson, or Roland Young, or even
Miriam Hopkins have lost by having
acted before the Hollywood lenses.
The idea, then, Of little theater

However, In days without End"
even the most conservative Of the old
fashioned drama lovers can become ex-
cited as Mr.. Stanley Ridges, in q
frightful disguise, follows Mr.. Earl
Iarimore around the stage, pretending
to be that bewildered heros worser self.
Mr.. Ridges mask" Is splotty and pur-
pnsh with the dead hues Of decomposi-
ton. Something between an ash heap
and Q garbage can, 1t Is supposed to
illustrate the presence Of sinister IN
gradients in Mr.. Larimore's compod-
| ton. The masked Mr.. Ridges Is ever
at the elbow Of Mr.. Larimore, perSuad-
ing him to be morbid, blasphemous and
cruel; to forget that he loves his vtr-
tuous wife (AGiss Selena Royle); to
hate God for having made him an
orphan, and to write an interpretive
novel descriptive Of the uselessness Of
life. More than that, in one Of the
most incredible convulsions of this
years drama he puts wife murder in
Mr.. Larimore's mind, causing him to
hint to his beloved bride that she
should 60 out into the wind and rain
and get fatal pneumonia.
TT WAS my impression last Monday
night at Henry Miller's Theater
that Mr.. Larimore could have
made known all these intricate and
cryptic emotions without the aid Of
Mr.. Ridges and his mask. He went
20 deeply into the roles secrets that
the authors devices seemed superfluous.
I wish that sometime, at an expert
mental matinee, Mr.. ONeill and the
Theater Guild would do Days With
out End" without help Of Mr.. Ridges
and his veil Just to prove whether or
not they are necessary. Through such
an experiment I feel sure that Mr..
LArimore could tell US all we need to
know shout the narrowed protagonist's
abnormalities, unassisted by what Mr..
Pulaski. dramatic critic for Variety"
described on the opening night as .
st00ge.
A SIDE from Mr.. ONeill's dilletante
~ preoccupation with technique his
new play discovers him In violent
musings about faith and unbelief. Mr..
Larimore, having suffered tragic be-
reavement at an early age, becomes
poisoned pessimist who looks upon
his Creator as an enemy. In essays
for the magazines Of discomfort he
has rallied against the sorry scheme Of
CNluBS cUtlIe, anu udS cIuDIACcu
atheism, socialism, communism, an
archism and bolshevism, retaining the
bitterer features Of them all. Especially
Is he hostile to the Gentle Pilot Of the
Galilean lake. One part of him hank
ers for the good, the true and the
religious; the other despises them.
Eventually, after he has been torn to
pieces in the conflict, he emerges d.
sheveled but victorious At the foot Of
spectacular Lee Simonson-Eugene
ONeiu crucifx in q dim, mysterious
New York church he prayA shrieks,
beats his breast and is strived In an
