"Marius," at the Dupent, is good
Raimu. That it is not superb
Raimu does not make it an appre-
ciably less-satisfying serving for
those who take their humor and
pathos Gallo.
This is one panel Of q screen trip
tych by the late. great French
comedian, Marcel Pagnol work
which Alexander Korda directed on
an excursion across the English
Channel. Another, Fanny" has
been seen here.
Raimu had more room for his
energetic mood d-blending in other
pictures. In this, though, he does
not disappoint his devotees, nor is
he at disadvantage in making
new acquaintances. There are
other players, OF course, and one
of them gives the French favorite
run for the fun honors. He is
Charpin, long steadily working
clown in the French studios.
Pierre Fresnsy plays the title role.
He makes reasonably plausible the
viewpoint OF waterfront bartender
who loves the sea more than he
does any woman. The only woman
with whom he appears to be &C
quainted is the daughter of a sea-
food stallkeeper. This girl, played
by Crane Demazis, loves him. He
feels he'd probably be as willing to
marry her as to wed with any one
else but doesn't want to marry any
time soon.
In the meantime, 8 prosperous
widowed ships chandler is pressing
for her hand. This is Charpin. His
brightest bit is a blowless alterca-
ton with the bartender.
1t is 4 simple plot Marius is
plans to 60 to sea, but
doesn't like the idea OF the middle
aged supplier's marrying the girl.

John Galsworthy was a clever
one when it came to adorning his
morals with exciting tales. This
gift of his is neatly underlined in
Escape" the new and praise
worthy cinema exhibit when
opened yesterday at the Playhouse
with Rex Harrison and Peggy Cum
minis.
At the surface level, Galsworthy
has written q dramatic man-hunt
tale, the story Of a decent chap
who had the bad luck to be
sentenced to prison for quite I'M
whiting killing. just below this
level, he comments eloquently
that while justice is mans most
nearly divine conception, it never
theless is marred by human frailty.
The blending of the manhunt
and the message is done dextrously
to raise Escape" above the standard
of screen melodrama, Tt has real
ism, suspense, simplicity and sin
cerity and while its basic message
is sober, it opens up for flashes
of wry humor which help the bal
ance Interestingly.
Galsworthy's hero in Escape" is
an ingratiating fellow, an ideal
type for illustrating the English
public's undertaking interest in the
law and how it works. As played
by Harrison, he Is well enough born
that he does not have to work for
q living There is nothing snobbish
about him, however, for the crime
he commits grows out Of his effort
to save a HYDE Park tart from the
policeman who seeks to arrest her
for soliciting.
The officer is accidentally killed
and Harrison is tired, found guilty,
and sentenced to three years for
His conviction strikes him as a
bitter betrayal Of mans impulse
to decency. AS quickly as possible,
he escapes and the manhunt is on.
There is a singularly effective
absence of frenzy in this pursuit.
1t is made q duel of wits between
the angry convict and the inexor-
able forces of the law. Gradually
it reaches out to include others,
most especially a restless country
beauty, played by Miss Cummins,
who agrees with the hunted man
that he has been shabbily treated
at the hands of justice.
At the climax, the pursuit in
vades quiet country church
where the priest and the tired
quarry of the police play out one
of the pictures most intellectually
and emotionally exciting scenes.
Escape" is a thoughtful screen
play, but this enhances rather than
detracts from it's excitement as
played by superb cast under the
of Director Joseph
