The Cast.

The Orson Welles' Macbeth" !"
which turned up yesterday, is a
double tragedy, with the one
+Welles acts added to the one
Shakespeare wrote.
This Macbeth" the Trans-Lux
Thanksgiving feature. has been q
long time coming. WeHes finished
it some three years ago, only to
have it recalled for the substitu-
ton Of a new sound track and
some of the most ruthless editing
to which a Shakespearian script
ever was subjected. The objec-
tionable Scotch burr which was
eliminated, took care OF only one
Of the burrs. Those remaining
are enough that Republic Pic
lures, the producer, may well rue
the day 1t ever dropped its stand
ard horse opera productions to
go fancy in this fashion.
Welles' Macbeth" Is an al
most fascinatingly empty dramatic
work. It runs now less than an
hour and one-half, intimating
that it was sheared rather than
cut in the fashion of the usual
screen drama. Some of its most
famous scenes are missing in
cluding the famous sleep-walking
passage, but the absence of this
is understandable in. view of jean
cite Noland's lightweight playing
Of Lady Macbeth's role.
What Is left in the stark, dark
story is a single-character play
with Welles attempting and fail
ing to bring up to colossal pro-
portions the ambition of a man
who would be king. This is a
strutting. striding. stricken man
but he suggests nothing Of the
twisted majesty of the character
Shakespeare wrote.
The people he dominates are
too small, too dwarfed in the di-
rection and acting Of this MAC
beth" to add wafer's weight to
the hero-villain Of the drama.
Like Welles. they are lost in the
dimly lighted photography Of al
film, whose ambition outstripped
the classic ambition Of the story
with which it deals.

The idea Of "I'll Get By" oi
course, is to cram it with as much
popular music as possible and Ger
tainly no music lover can have q
legitimate kick on this score. In
addition to the title tune, the COL
lection includes Deep in the
Heart of Texas" "I Got A Gal in
Kalamazoo" "It's Been A Long
Long Time" '"There'll Never Be
Another You." Fifth Avenue"
"McNamara's Band" "You Make
Me Feel So Young" "No Love, Nc
Nothing" Once in a While" and
Yankee Doodle Blues"
That's a lot of songs, which are
at their best played by James or
sung by Day. but the number only
goes to show what gold mine
Tin Pan Alley can be to a movie
musical producer.
Actually, the best handling OF
music in "Ill Get BY" is the sa-
tirica' treatment of sequence
based upon the memorable feud
between ASCAP and the radio
networks.
This long and rather funny Sc
quence shows how the listening
world was driven out of its aggre-
gate mind a few years ago by the
ASCAP music ban on the net
works. The era's theme song,
everyone will be reminded. was
JEANNE With the Light Brown
Hair" and it seems quite funny

rhyme love comes now to such
deserving creatures as June Haver,
William Lundigan. Dennis Day
and Gloria De Haven. This is
how it is in Tin Pan Aelley, a
singable phrase sets everybody of
on a romantic binge that begins
in poverty and ends in orchids
cluttered penthouses. It is q
strange thing to have happened
to the offspring Of those hardy
colonists who started Thanks

There Is nothing wrong with
"Pll Get BY" that has not been
wrong with all such sentimental

as sugary.
ITS hero is Lundigan in the
role of "a handsome nobody who
wants to be a music publisher

might club singer on her way to

neighborhood saloons where hit
songs have their humble origin.
Lundigan and Miss Haver take
care Of the wistful romantic
touch such a picture needs. but
how about the comedy pair?
They are there, all right. The
male is Dennis Day in the form
Of a naive Texas cowhand and the
girl in the captivating shape of
Gloria De Haven, a climber type
whose lacquered exterior hides q
heart of sugar plums.
For musical accompaniment to
these romantic affairs, the studio
thoughtfully provided that top
