Famous Lubitsch Touch

Lubitsch was the specialist of spe-
cialists in making farce Of matri-
mony on the screen. Others might
deal with the subject of love in its
chemical and ethereal aspects, but it
was pretty pedestrian stuff as COM
pared with ErneSt's. Even today,
there are movie fans who go all the
way back to The Marriage Circle"
when they want to make specific
comparisons between a badly played
boudoir scene of today and a per-
fectly played one of long ago. Well,
pretty long ago.
X II X X
In Hollywoods discussion of what
has happened recently in the field
of marital farce on the screen, the
point is not that Lubitsch has lost
the Lubitsch touch, but that others
have acquired it. George Cukor,
for one, has picked it up, as evi-
denced by The Women" and cur
rently. The Philadelphia Story"
Carson Kanin showed mastery of
the same form in My Favorite
Wife" w. S. Van Dyke I'd in Il
Love You Again" Howard Hawkes.
in His Girl Friday" and any num-
Der of others that one could name
if he could remember them off hand.
The very moment Hollywood came
to the conclusion that the funniest
thing that can happen to two people
is to be married" as one national
magazine expresses it, every one be-
gan to poach in the Lubitsch pre-
serve.
Hitchcock has done it in Mr. and
Mrs. Smith," which examines the
plight of a couple who discover sew
eral years late that their marriage
was not legal. BY the old rules, that

theme of This Thing Called Love-"
also very funny, which finds Alex
ander Hall contemplating the case
of a Statistical-minded bride who
decides it would be a great idea to
remain unkiSSed for three months.
Even Clarence Brown, who used to
direct Garbo in all those tragic
romances, has changed his mind so
radically as to turn out number
called Come Live With Me-" which
deals with the problems of a young
couple who are married for purely
business reasons and maintain sep
arate establishments.
So far, Lubitsch has not allowed
the Lubitsch touch" to go by de-
fault. No, indeed! He is about to
pop out with THAT Uncertain Feel
ing" which is a comic clinical re-
port on a young brides reactions to
a husband whose snoring drives her
to a mad insomnia. (Melvyn Doug

much more, including his desire to
play Robert Jordan in For Whom

Anti.War Drama

Any one-any one that is, outside
Of NaZi Germany-haS every right
to hate war, even unto the point of
play must have a firm foundation,
must have something more than,
for instance, the sincerity and fire
which the Rev. Urban Nagle writes
into his belief that mankind is for
better things than mass killing. 1t

Fog Over Mars" presented last
night by the BlackfriarS Guild (and

its preachment on false logic if that
preachment is to have dramatic
effect.
In Fog Over Mars" Father Nagle
would have us believe, as the former
Senator Nye was telling us a few
years ago, that the munitions makers
wage wars, that without them all
would be peace. 1t seems a slight
confusion of effect for cause. Acre,
it might be suggested as one in
stance, was stormed with catapult
and flaming torch. without a Colt
automatic, a Vickers machine-gun, a
Krupp cannon being fired. Traffic
with the enemy, a paSt-proven prac-
tice in the munitions combines, not
exactly in the cause of peace, to
be sure, but this does not seem to
be the whole point here. Rather

war. If you think Hitler would have
stayed out of -Slovakia be-
cause he didn't have a gun if no
one else in the world had had a
gun at the time, you'll believe all of
this, of course. There are always
bricks and clubs.
Fog Over Mars" whatever It's
shortcomings as drama, does strike
the ear as something that might
have readable poetry in it. This is
realized, however, by only small
portion of the cast, principally Dor
othy ODonnell Freund, the woman
with the classic attitude of her sex
toward war since 'LysiStrata" Elliot
Dyer. the husband who tries to earn
a paltry fortune in munitions, and
j. Loren Freund, the steel magnate
with a realistic attitude toward his
trade in bloodshed. Many of the
others, it must be reported, seem
slightly appalled, by Father Nagle's
blank verse. reading their lines for
all the world as if reciting blank
verse. H. M.
