suspicion that zimmerman is an ex--
pert director.
"Act Of Violence" With Van Hefin
and Robert Ryan as its principals, is
a lean and feverish fiction packed
with enough drama to rise above
the few flaws that have crept into
it. Among these latter are occas-
ionaI iapses from complete lucidity
and an ending that would have been
more satisfactory if it had been less
conventional.
Zinneman's latest work is built
around manhunt theme. Its two
main characters, almost equally
sympathetic and the more dramatic
for that, are a pair of Air Force war
veterans.
The one played by Hef1in is a
former AAF bomber commander, a
man who made one grave moral
misjudgment while confined in a
prisoner-of-war camp in Germany.
This misjudgment was informing
the camps Nazi commander of his
crews intention to escape. All but
one of these unfortunates is killed.
That one. played by Ryan, lives with
the obsesSion of tracking down the
betrayer and killing him to avenge
the crime he cannot fathom.
Zinneman's direction of this mur-
derous pursuit rejects all those
cinema tricks which might detract
from the simple essence of his story.
He wastes no time in bringing the
vengeful Ryan onto the peaceful
scene where the happily married
Helm is leader in the movement
to provide veterans housing. He
makes it clear, too, that the marked
victim has always been expecting
the shadow of his avenger; that
always below the surface of con-
sciousness, the guilty man has been
waiting.
The action of the story, written
by Collier Young and adapted by
Robert L. Richards, is dramatically
confined. It centers around the
pursued mans serene suburban
home in a small California city.
When it branches out, it moves to
a real estate mems convention in
Los Angeles, and for one drunken
night of terror it dips down into
that city's sleazy underworld of
criminal lawyers, professional killers.
and one bewildered woman of the
streets. zimmerman uses his few
sets for all the visual potence in
them, just as he did his more nu-
merous ones in The Search"
His basic conviction as movie
maker. however, remains the one
that the major interest of any hu-
man being is another human being.
Evening star., 1949-02-04

He keeps his camera searching not
only for one man wanted by another
man, but inside of both men to find
what drives them.
Hef1in. the pursued, is his favorite
point Of focus. This man is not
a craven character. In all his life,
he has committed but one evil act.
He is intelligent enough to know
that he never can forgive himself
for that, any more than can the
man who is coming to kill him. He
is never sure for a moment that
he should not be killed for his crime,
but he knows he wants to live and
forget it if he can.
He is encouraged in this by his
wife's loyalty even after she knows
the truth, and in the final test he
surmounts the worst of his frenzied
fears that he would do over again
what he did in that German camp.

AS in The Search" zimmerman
has come up with a picture replete
with memorable performances. Hef-
Inns man is a dramatically haunted
figure of terror and conscience.
Ryan, who stalks him to the SCREEN
plays bitter end is quietly cold
picture of vengeance, the villain who
hi many ways is far more heoric
than: the hero of standard movie
fare.
These two dominate the scene
whose innocence contrasts SO strik-
ingly with the action Of Act of
Violence" Yet they always can
count on effective support from such
others as Lanet Leigh as the wife,
Mary Astor as the tired underworld
doll, Phyllis Thaxter as the aven-
gers flancee and the several others
who move through the story
The zimmerman touch gets the
same dramatic results from actors
as from story.
Maureen Cannon. the blithely
amusing singing girl from up in
Central Park is the happiest fea-
ture of this weeks stage program
at the Capitol. She heads a bill
which also includes Steve Evans, a
comic commentator on Hollywood's
people; Dancers Harold and Lola
and the acrobatic troupe designated
the Three DIS.

will stick to the violent screen roles
that shot her to fame.
Right now Betty is getting the
full treatment, Red, Hot and Blue
pie throwing and everything.
Despite all the vehicles that have
been announced, her next will likely
be Little Boy Blue" night club
yarn. Only other set for the cast
as yet is Billy DeWolfe..
There's good reason for Betty's
hewing to knockabout roles. Dream
Girl" in which she played a visit
full Walter NIFTY, was not among
her best-selling pictures.

THAT Midnight Kiss" finds movie
making restful. He says agents try
to book singers for six concerts
weekly, but "the voice is a delicate
thing; you can't sing more than two
nights a week." A six-month rest
per year helps. too, he says.
