The mad Booths Of whom
Eleanor Ruggles wrote so richly
and so well in Prince of Play
ers" are wider and shallower in
the film version of the biography
which opened today at the Co.
lumbia Theater.
In Goth Century-Fox Gin
emaScope process, and in the
hands Of too many young, mex
perienced players, the inner
fame of the 10Th century's IA
nous acting family turns to
something approximating mere
Technicolor. The exception to
this, and a rather meritorious
one, is the performance of Rich
ard Burton as Edwin Booth, the
title character of the family saga.
He gives what might be called
the Old Vic Interpretation Of
Booth, a characterization more
deeply respectful of Shakespeare
than aware of the Maryland boy
who became this country'S
greatest actor. It has force and
fire. however, in comparison with
which the performances of John
Derek as John Wilkes Booth and
Maggie Mcnamara as Mary
Devlin represent a regrettable
misuse of immaturity.
Moss Hart. confronted with the
task of slicing the screenscript
fraction out of Miss Ruggles' big
biography, shows sharp eye
for the cinematic angles of Booth
history. His selections include
Edwin's agonized boyhood as his
drunken fathers guardian: his
successful rescue of the latter's
mantle on their fateful Western
tour: his marriage to Mary Dev-
lin; his London triumph in Ham,
let, and his warped brothers
assassination of Abraham Lin
coin.
These are the big incidents of
the film directed by Philip
Dunno. They make prince of

film and one which captures
something of the florid. gaslit
flavor of late 10th century thea
ter.
This was a period of star
worship. Actors were expected
to explode with emotion in the
theater. and out. The Booths
did. First. old Junius Brutus
whose off f-stage soul stormed
with the RACES, prides. and griefs
Of Shakespeare's kings and
princes. After him, Edwin. The
Booths never learned not to act
and this was their tragedy as
fully as it was their triumph.
This fatal flaw in their genius
is less apparent in the film than
in Miss Ruggles' book. but it is
sketched-in in Burton's portrait
of Edwin. And. in the loose, free
wheeling imitation of the imperi-
Gus Junius Brutus by Raymond
Massey. This is ham before wry
was discovered by theatergoers.

leo BAD Day at BLACK ROCK,
which opened today at the Pal
ace, is the answer to any public
hunger for another western as
good as High Noon"
This is it, q bleak, biting, ter
/ rifying story shot through with
an acrid humor, and topped by
one of those performances Spen-
Ger Tracy gives when the script
offers encouragement. Both the
film and It's stars acting are
clearly worthy Of Academy
nominations, due to be made In
Hollywood tonight.
Black Rock, a lonely. sun
scorched shack town in the West,
richly deserves its bad day. 1t is
a crossroads whose soul is eaten
by guilt for an atrocious crime
and it's retribution in the person
of Tracy is remorselessly exacted
by John Sturges' direction of the
film.
1t is a tighter screenplay than
that Of High Noon" that MGM
and Dore Schary have produced
here.
It opens with Tracy descending
from a streamliner making its
first stop in years at Black Rock.
The handful of inhabitants greet
him not with mere hostility but
with murderous hate. He quickly
learns why, namely that Black
Rock has lynched the Japanese
farmer to whom Tracy has
brought posthumous war medal
awarded the farmers son.
Until Tracy shows up. Black
Rock has found way to live
with it's guilt. It is a way OF
mutual distrust and suppressed
violence, but way nevertheless.
Now it is threatened and Black
Rocks solution of the dilemma is
to add Tracy's murder to its list.
It turns out that he, retired
Army officer with useless left
arm has three resources the
homicidal townsmen did not
figure on. These are a disdain
for life, a majestic courage, and
a sense of justice as strong as
Black Rocks injustice.
There is soaring suspense in
this quiet, savage duel between
the stranger and the town. Not
q wisp of it is missed in Sturges'
unhurried search of the con-
sciences, or lack of them, in the
characters involved. 1t turns
out out there are remnants of
conscience among the townsmen.
the alcoholic ruin of a sheriff,
the broken down doctor who also
serves as Black Rocks under
taker These, the stranger de-
