The Cast.
By Harry Macarthur

The advisability Of paying at
tention to old Greek proverbs
carved on gold relics dug up for
museums is demonstrated with
some force in Golden Salaman-
der" the new import from Brit
ain at the Dupont. The hero
of Golden Salamander" is a
young archeologist sent to a
North African town to salvage
and catalogue shipment Of val
liable mementoes of the past in
termed there during the war.
One of these turns out to be
a large golden salamander. on
the base of which is a Greek prov
ere to the effect that you do not
conquer evil by ignoring it, but
going out to meet it. This Stabs
his conscience several times and
before long he is embroiled in
sinister underworld Vaccinations
which almost lead him to his
doom. The benevolent scenario
writer's lead him ultimately to 6
beautiful French girl instead of
his doom, but it is a rough road
he travels getting to her.
On his way to his museum as
signment, you see. he has on 9
dark and rainy night run afoul
of a landslide and wrecked truck
loaded with obviously contraband
automatic pistols. More and more
evidence turns up that something
shady is going on around that
little African town on the Medi-
terranean Coast, but the archie
ologist manages to mind his own
business until he runs across that
salamander with the messages.
Director Ronald Neame. who
collaborated with Leslie Storm
and Victor Charming in writing
the screenplay of Golden Sala-
mander," has woven fair amount
of suspense into his adventure
yarn. His opening sequence of that
rainy night in Africa, for instance,
is a minor masterpiece Of building
tension and interest. The chase
sequence which winds things up
in a lively affair which could bring
you to the edge of the seat, too.
These are stretches in between,
though. when Director Neame's
leisurely British pace is downright
aggravating. There can't be too
much complaint about this, how
ever, since it permits the sampling
Of a great deal of local color,
which departs from authenticity
only in being cleaner and not
smelling like the real thing.
Tevor Howard plays the arche-
ologist and does a thoroughly
satisfying job of it.. The French
girl who is his reward for facing
instead of ignoring evil is played
by q newcomer named Anouk.
Anouk is fine figure of a French
girl. for whom a man might very
well take on a gang of gun-run-
ners. Herbert Lom, Miles Malle-
son. Walter Rilla and Wihred
Hyde White are others who lurk
around the premises lending vary
ing degrees of the sinister.
Golden Salamander" is no clas-
sic among English supense- -adven-
ture dramas, but it will do.
