Shakespeare, have bothered much
with "Othello" in this strange age
of man.
The Theater Guild chanced Just
that sort of attitude when it decided
to produce Shakespeares most
violent love story this season with
Paul Robson in the title role. Now,
IN their turn, theatergoers chance
missing the most sinewy and excit-
ing piece of drama in New York If
they pass up the "Othello" which
spellbinds capacity audiences night
ly at the Shubert Theater on West
Forty fourth street. In architecture
and dress, this "Othello" is a clas-
sical piece but in spirit and violence
1T is as current as today's explosive
headlines. One leaves it with a new
and deeper sense of the timeless
tragedy of man and the feeling of
having seen the theater as the most
powerful medium of expression
which he has devised for telling
what a nobly and stupidly passion
ate creature he is.
x X X X
'The Robson Othello" this one
will become in time as such things
do AS far as it goes that's quite
correct, but 1t does not tell the full
story. There is much more to it
for all the power of his performance.
This "Othello" is such excellent
theater because it represents an al
most perfect collaboration In which
one part fits another until the
authors intent has skeletal clarity
Overall, it presents the direction of
Margaret Webster who has become
Shakespeare's most terse and lucid
interpreter whether she is speaking
through Maurice Evans, John
Gielgud or Paul Robson. Beyond
that there is performance of Iago
by Jose Ferrer which rivals, if 1t
does not excel, that of the great
colored actor in the title role. Put
these and the plays lesser qualities
within the imaginative frame Gre
ated by Robert Edmund Jones and
one has Shakespeare as con-
temporary as Steinbeck and much
more eloquent.
Robson as Othello has been
something for the Imagination of
his fellow Americans to toy with
since word of his impact in the
role came back from London 13
years ago. The imagination is likely
to have fallen short, however, of
just what he makes of the passion
ate Moor who served Venice, wed
high~born Venetian. and was di-
vested of the simplest satisfaction
in either through the envy and
cunning which hated him as alien.
Robeson's Othello is a man of
enormous passion and force, a
noble creature whose simple nature
lmpels him to accept all values by
his own standards, oblivious of the
fact that there are other values.

all OF his intelligence and the ideal

HOLLYWOOD.
Those spine tickling horror Aims
no longer are an unimportant part
OF studio budgets, to be shown only
in cheap theaters.
The low cost productions still are
made, of course-drawing frequent
condemnation of the Legion of De-
cency for being excessively grue-
some"-but the significant thing is
that not big studio is without its
de luxe horror pictures, and with
big names in the casts.
Alfred Hitchcock, the director who
has made fine art of film chillers,
says that audiences like to see these
pictures to escape reality. They are
thrilled by the stories because they
know there is no reality in the thing
they see.
Universal, home studio of horror,
which has had profitable returns
from Lon CLANCY. jr., Bella Lugosi
and Boris Karloff through the years,
took Claude Raines from the big time
spectacles, and used him as the por-
trayer in the name role Of THE
Phantom of the Opera"
Twentieth Century Fox has two
high class frigteners, Jane Eyre" /"
with Joan Fontaine and Orson
Welles. The same studio is readying
"The Lodger." with Merle Oberon
and Laird Cregar, in the story Of
Jack the Ripper.
Metro Goldwyn Mayer is spending
a lot Of money and much of Charles
Laughton's time and talent In 1.-THE
Canterville Ghost" Paramount, in
The Man In Half Moon Street" uses
Nils Asther to tell the story of a mad

voice, could not conceivably be so
powerful were not there equal per-
lection in the playing of Iago by
Ferrer.
The very distillation of malice, of
malice for its own sake, is what
Ferrer brings to his portrait Of the
guileful Venetian villain. The the
ater has rarely seen such a piece
OF sheer diablerie, a thing of un-
mitigated evil which wrings a
grudging admiration that is almost
an affection for the cleverness of
the man who achieves it. This is
the masterpiece of villainy, you tell
yourself watching it unfold. that
Shakespeare must have had in mind
when he conceived Iago as the
antithesis of the direct and simple
Moor. There is even high comedy
In the man which has seldom been
developed before, at least not so
fully. A dozen times he makes YOU
laugh at the craftiness with which
he devises the doom of Othello, a
laughter of which Robson makes
you ashamed.
X X X X
The music, as we'll as the stark
drama of Shakespeare is carefully
accented in the Guilds "Othello."
1t Is to be expected, of course, in
the case of Robson who brings a
booming force to Othello's passion
ate disintegration and also in the
Ferrer portrait of Iago for there's
a vocal excellence in him, too. 1t
carried, however. all the way to the
least OF those playing under Miss
Websters direction, and it adds
handsomely to the sum total of
the eloquence of "Othello."
The sheer power of the two prin-
cipal performances is not such as
to obscure the fact that the whole
play is excellently cast. It's other
outstanding performers are Miss
Uta Hagen, who makes a lovely
Desdemona; Miss Webster herself
as Emilia, James Monks as Cassie
and Jack Manning as the foolish
Roderigo.
"Othello" turns out again to be
timeless in this version and it is a
play to be jotted down by those who
may be coming to New York.
