quality drama but which was ex-
tremely popular with our television
audience.
Another even more successful
production was the uncut Hamlet,
which, OF course, is an OUTSIDE prof.
ect."
In mentioning these two achieve
ments of television in England, the
director makes it clear that they
were treated with the consideration
such plays deserve, Mourning
was rehearsed for 10 weeks before
It was put on the air and Hamlet
for an equivalent time.
AS to what such productions mean
and this might well give actors
the shivers-Mr. Langton reports
that one television presentation Of
a play is the equivalent of a six
months run in a regular theater.
He does not doubt, however, that
both the legitimate theater and tele-
vision are here to stay.
Next to Shaw, and, at this mo-
ment, the C. U. production of Heart
break House." Langton's major
enthusiasm at luncheon turns out to
be Laurence Olivier's cinema pro-
duction of Hamlet" Langton, an
old friend and colleague of Olivier, S

ton for the latter's gifts Is an
actor, director and producer. Never
theless, he thinks the most amazing
thing about Olivier is his energy
and drive.
Dozens of persons have thought
of making a film of Hamlet" he
says. but they dropped it instantly
as out of the question"
Olivier's obstacles were more ap-
palling, he thinks, than any the
others encountered, but they only
served to increase the drive with
which Ne approached the produc-
ton. His only concern is the thea
ter-and his pictures-and he works
at them simultaneously; a roper
tory of plays at the Old Vic and a
mammoth cinema project on which
he acts as producer, writer, director
and star.
Nothing can stop him, or throw
him off schedule" says Langton.
Il think this Is dramatically illu-
trated by the use of Jean Simmons
as Ophelia in the Hamlet She Is
under contract to j. Arthur Rank
and was available only for three
weeks, so Olivier shot the Ophel1a
scenes during those three weeks,
literally months out OF context.
A specimen of the sharpness OF
Olivier's thinking, Langton feels, Is
to be found In his decision to play
the leading role in the much her
aided second Shakespearian pro-
duction due for release in this coun-
try next month.
Olivier" Langton says. would
have welcomed chance not to
play Hamlet in the production. AS
he saw it, however there was moth
ing else to do. In his own words,
Where would I find an actor OF
repute and skill who would take my
orders to do the role precisely as I
wanted it done?"
Langton who is EN- husiastic
about the Olivier Hamlet" says the
producer himself is extremely mod
est about it. He refers to it not as
a cinema Hamlet" but as a movie
about the play, Hamlet" He thinks
of it more as an essay on Shake
speares greatest tragedy and is
confident that later and better
productions will be made.
The guest director of 'Hertbreak
House." which opens at the Uni
versity theater tomorrow night, is
pretty sure Olivier is the incompar-
able figure in the contemporary
English tehater. 1t is expert en-
dorsement for a rather general
feeling on that score.
