Van johnson. who, a year ago,
jumped from $3.50 a week to some
thing like 5000 weekly, has had
another big hike In salary. The new
contract is going up to the Santa
Cruz location of Vans picture, THE
Romance of Rosy Ridge" And you
can bet Van will sign. He makes
millions of dollars a year for Metro
and the big boys are grateful and
want to share some of the loot with
Van. Don't hold your breath for
this to happen-but Howard Hughes
has promised Jack Buetel that he
will co-star him again with Jane
Russell And that Is why, according
Ito Buetel, whom I saw lunching in
the green room at Warmers, that Mr..
Hughes is refusing all outside offers

hoping he will give them some sign

1t is another rare moment when he
finally speaks again. The role is
performed with considerable relish,
as you might expect, by Maurice
Shutz, whose deadpan expression
while he is being carted around in
that chair is nothing short of mag
nificent.
The acting rs excellent throughout,
for that matter, being marked in
every instance by that reality that is
one Of the notable assets of French
pictures. There is a feeling that
these people aren't actors at all, but
are real French peasants, except

busy with other things to notice it
too much.
"It Happened at the Inn" is one
OF those comedies. rare with even
the French, which ranks right up
with La Kermesse Heroique" and
q few others as film classics. 1t was
made during the occupation, when
restrictions placed on the Gallo
movie-makers were severe, but you
never would guess it. For one thing,
1t is hard to comprehend the
density of the NaI censors who
blithely passed a picture which, by
indirection but plainly, points to
the Joys of frustrating superimposed
authority.
The superimposed authority in
this case is only the local gendar-
merle, but the message is clear
enough when the Goupi clan, which
has been a hotbed of murder and
internal family squabbling pre-
sents a bland united front to the
gendarme trying to investigate the
household. 1t Is easy to assume that
Jacques Becker, though directing
the picture with full approval of the
German authorities, thought it
would be great joke to take the
opportunity to point out to his COM
patriots what great sport circum-
venting the law could be- The joke
has lost none of its flavor with the
removal of the conditions out of
which 1t grew.
