"All Quiet" stands up as a huge,
as well as a high-minded, prof.
ect. The obsolete trench warfare
with which it deals comes OIL
as full-scale. Milestone makes use
of enough men and war material
to conquer a small, terrified coun-
try.
Nevertheless, it is a sharply
personal drama that is related
within this gigantic frame.
A young Ayres, who will startle
everyone by the difference in his
appearance, and Wolheim carry
the acrid- human essence of Re-
marques story. Ayres plays the
role of the sensitive young SOL
der, Paul, a gentle schoolboy
whisked from the classroom into
horror. Wolheim, one OF the ug-
lest actors who ever lived, plays
the tough, crusty. heart-of-gold
non-com who does what he can
to remain human in the inhuman
environment of war.
The single defect in both per-
formances, and in all the others.
is in the amateurish quality of
their speech and the occasional
exaggeration of expression. Par
ticularly in the case OF Ayres,
now one of the screens most pol
lished actors, is this speech flaw
notable. Each word is uttered with
a painstaking precision, even in
the most dramatic situations. not
because the actor knew no better
but because the movie sound track
was new when "All Quiet" was
made.
Actors simply did not trust
the new gadget to reproduce nor

ing screen exhibit. The film stands
well on the two good feet Director
Lewis Milestone put under it in
1880 and although it lacks the
smooth finish of today's acting, its
dramatic message still drives deep.
In a period in which war seems
to have become permanent, the
pictures point that war is Hell
gives it an impact that it did not
have when it was sweeping all the
outstanding film awards back
there two decades ago. A dozen
unforgettable passages in the
screenplay are italicized for en-
phasis by today's headlines.
Italicized, too, is the fact that
while countless war pictures have
been made since "All Quiet" there
has been little improvement in
Milestone's production method.
His cameras caught all of its ca
tastrophic violence, its horror,
Illustration and degradation yet,
dramatically enough, they do not
suggest there can be an end to
these short of universal freedom
and decency.

Having finally concluded the
witty training of "Gigi" for her
career, the Plaza Theater is turn
ing from the whimsical to the
operate with a new film version
of "Pagliacci." If the need for a
new version of "Pagliacci" has
been definitely established, this
one fills the bill with almost COM
plete satisfaction. The Leoncavallo
score is sung with great gusto and
Director Mario Costa has moved
the proceedings out OF doors on
occasion to make the picture viSu-
ally as we'll as aurally attractive.
There is not much you need to
be told about the plot of "Pagli-
acct" at this late date. According
to the films opening sequence,
Leoncavallo decided he would be-
come famous by telling a story
close to the people. His story OF
life, as almost anyone knows,
turned out to be Renaissance
about clown impersonating
betrayed husband who discovered
he was in fact a betrayed hus-
band. This has been kicked around
lot since May II, 1892, when
"Pagliacci' first was sung, but 1t
still is easier to put up with than
lot of opera plots.
In this new "Pagliacci" at the
Plaza, Tito Cobb, a good, robust
baritone, sings Tonic, the clown
with a great deal of feeling and
Gino Lollobrigida creates as
tempting a brunette Media as ever
was untrue to a paggliocco. She is
quite a gal. We got any sopranos
like this at the Met?
The villain of "Pagliacci" is
either Canio, who discloses Media s
faithlessnesS because she won't
have any of him, or Peppe, the
young man who would carry her
off. depending on your point OF
view. Both roles are sung well by
Afro Poll and Filippo Morucci,
though Mr.. Poll INDUCES in oper-
attic rather than cinematic acting,
which is disconcerting if you're
trying to relax.
The Leoncavallo music is played
by the Teatro del Opera Orchestra
lof Rome, conducted by GuiSeppi
Morelli. The sound track crackles
bit with surface noise here and
there, but for the most part this
"Pagliacci" is good listening.

them unequalled in the deluge OF
war theme films of the last two
decades.
The most dramatic of these, OF
course, is the climax scene in
which the hero is killed while
reaching over the trench top to
capture a lovely butterfly Speci-
men lowering a few inches away
Almost as effective are such others
as that in which the sensitive hero
spends the night in shell hole
with the French soldier he killed;
the frolicsome courtship OF the
French girls; the bitter home
coming of the hero to his old
school on leave, and the running
sequence in which a pair of ex-
pensive boots passes from one
soldier to another.
Milestone collected all of the
outstanding film awards for "All
Quiet" in the year of its original
issue. Nothing has happened to it
since to indicate that the judges
made questionable choice.
