AS a period piece written with

the English and Indians were

is moderately interesting. It sug-

Ackroyd, Sykes and Malloy were

out of their army careers than
their pay and feeling they were
defending the Empire.
They liked beer, girls and brawl-

could lead such men into unusual

up Front Win CafgoonlSb Dill
Mauldin was one thing and up
Front with Universal Pictures is
another.
Both are quite funny, too: only
not in the same way.
Mauldinss two characters, Willie
and Joe, were terrific soldier SYM
bols. They did not like war and
they did not like brass and they
had ways of expressing themselves
on both subjects as comically col
orful as Willie and Joe were un-
conquerable on the battlefield
They summed up the wry judg-
ment that millions of men made
on the necessity of fighting at all,
and particularly of fighting under
officers formally labeled superior, !"
A whale of q lot of the drama OF
war was capsuled in Mauldin's pair
and Hollywood would have been
a fool not to snap them up as
movie heroes.
So, here are Willie and Joe at
the Palace in an inevitably pop
ular comedy that lacks the sting
of the original. They are played
with fairly free hands by Tom
Ewell and David Wayne and what
they do to escape the dreary rou-
tine of war is undoubtedly good
escape entertainment. The fact
that Stanlwy Roberts does not
write as tartly as Mauldin could
draw will be regretted chiefly by
the latter's followers who are
fewer in number than the movie
audience.
X y y x
Ewell and Wayne are vivid
figures in the screens 'Up Front. !"
AS Willie, the former is. the zenith
of soldier sloppiness. He reads
comic books and fast love fiction
and scorns to be any one but him
self regardless of who issues con-
trary orders.
a Joe is a trimmer trooper, super
acially smarter and guy who finds
wars more tolerable when con-
quered areas abound in pretty
danes.
One of the best things war ever
did was fling these two, together
in. as the screen script goes. an
adventure in Naples. Joe is sent
there to recuperate from wounds
of a building which fell on him
while he was swigging cognac.
Willie sets out to find him on the
theory that it is folly to fight a war
with any one else as his buddy.
Here the two are swept into an
adventure whose high points
are a spirited young brunette and
q black market ring which is con-
centrating on selling 24-hour
brandy to American occupation
troops.
Alexander Hall who directed
"Up Front" is smart enough to
know that he will get farther with
the comedy inherent in Willie and
Joe than that in the incident of
his script. He is aided by part of
smart leading actors in Ewell and
Wayne.
These two have an amusingly
sharp understanding of what it
must have been like to be a Maui
din cartoon figure and to speak
the pungent lines the cartoonist
provided as the brightest spots in
the script dialogue. They do not
always bring these of at their best
--Mauldin's comments on officers,
rookie soldiers, Italian women and
other kinds of women, army hos
pitals, etc.-but they give each
testing line solid try.
Hollywood has made so many
war pictures that even its comedies
keep falling into the deep grooves
as the more serious ones. ''Up
Front" is no exception to this un-
fortunate rule, but there is enough
refreshing in the personalities of
it's heroes to give 1t some quality
of speciality.
Less than pure Mauldin, as
every one should know, is better
than most varities of laughable life
in the armed services.
