Hutton TV Show CoIorfuI,
Maybe, Not Spectacular
BY Harry Macarthur

BY now, unless they have been
blinded by their own electronic
rainbow, the boys around NBC-
TV should know that color isn't
everything. This season in which
we are to be deluged by stellar
talent and colossal productions
in the big tint TV push got under
way last night. The National
Broadcasting Co. televised its
first Commute color spectacular.
an original musical comedy titled
"Satins and Spurs" starring
Betty Hutton and produced by
Max Lehman.
This, in advance, figured to
be an event. 1t was to be the
television debut for Miss Hutton,
one of the liveliest of our pres
ent-day entertainers. The show
came equipped with a budget
which would permit Mr.. Lieb-
man, who has been turning out
weekly monochrome spectaculars
for several years, to Guido him.
self in color. The musical score,
it was promised. was being writ
ten by Jay Livingston and Ray
Evans, one of the top teams in
the tune trade.
In spite of all the great ex-
pectations, however, "Satins and
Spurs" provided considerably less
than the most spectacular 90
minutes television has yet seen.
There has been a feeling in some
quarters that these color spec
taculars might be a mistake, that
they would make the rest of the
TV fare seem pallid by cornpari-
son. It may turn out that way
in the future, but not yet. "Sa-
tins and Spurs" got underway
at 1880 on WNBW and by 8:06
this viewer was fighting a strong
urge to see what Ed Sullivan and
his Toast of the Town" COM
pany were up to on WTOP-TV's
Channel 8.

Miss Hutton is undeniably a
top-f1ight performer. She is an
entertainer with a full range
and she can play it for broad
comedy or for pathos with equal
effectiveness. She can, that is,
when given something to play.
In "Satins and Spurs" the
book by William Friedberg and
Mr.. Lehman turned out to be
one of those trite affairs long
out Of fashion in the theater.
It cast Miss Hutton as a rodeo
star in New York wooed by a

Not since the last original
musical show by the high school
graduating class has the formula
been adhered to so neatly. Cow
girl and photographer met early
and spared fitfully until about
8:39 pm. Then they kissed. At

a misunderstanding. A COM

gets Miss Hutton quickly from
one song to the next is sufficient.
This charitable thought, however,
runs smack up against the I'M
happy fact that it is not easy
to be charitable about the words
and music supplied by Mr.. Liv-
ingSton and Mr.. Evans.
Unless it grows on you, which
is hard to believe, this definitely
ranks among the lesser Living
ston- Evans scores. In fact, if
anything musical exposed here
last night arrives on the hit
parade, I'll be happy to eat a
copy of the sheet music, though
not necessarily any long-playing
vinylite records.
A derivative bit of vocal corn
pone titled Back Home" might
be heard again, or even-with
the help of the right record at

you're So Right for Me-" But
these are undistinguished and so

Miss Hutton and her support
ing cast, it must be admitted.
plunged into "Satins and Spurs
with great enthusiasm when be-
fore the color cameras last night.
If they failed to light up home
screens with more than normal
brilliance it was not because of
lack of spirit.
The star and Mr.. Mccarthy,
it has to be noted, were betrayed
now and then by the tricky bust
ness of trying to synchronize lip
movements with pre-recorded
songs, but this is only a minor
complaint. A far more serious
one is that they were given a
merry-go-round horse to ride
over a breakneck steeplechase
course.
y \ 4
"Satins and Spurs" may have
been a dazzling thing on color
screens. There were a number
of indications on the face of a
prosaic old black and white
viewing tube, at any rate, that
! this might be the case. There
was, for instance, a fashion
show, complete with dance num-
Der by Mary Ellen Moylan, tossed
in for no reason except that
there was time for it. And that
it must have looked stunning
through the color cameras eye.
The physical aspects Of the
Lehman production throughout,
for that matter, bore the un-
mistakable stamp of his knack
for using lavish effects with good
taste. With the full spectrum
at his disposal he must have
created some handsome pictures.
On 80 million monochrome
sets, however, the show behind
the color screen comes through.
1t may turn out to be difficult
to sell q man a color TV set on
which he can see a dull show in
all its dimensions. It's bad
enough in black-and-White.

body in the face.
