tolerant intolerance for the other.

not want to live in a palace that

len route to a brilliantly danced

conclusion much more explicit
in the film than on the stage.
The latter was content with the
barest suggestion of a romantic
involvment between Anna and

directed with delicacy by Walter
Lang, distrusts such a reserved
treatment of the point.

It may confuse the young
somewhat but Davy Crockett has
turned up in the middle OF the
War Between the States in Walt
Disney's newest film feature,
"The Great Locomotive Chase"
Of course Tess Parker is calling
himself James j. Andrews in
this adventure tale at Keith'S
but the small fry will recognize
Davy even without the coonskin
cap. As a further blow, he is a
shorn Samson without the fur
piece, too, and winds up with
his neck destined for a Confed-
crate moose.
The movie, handsomely shot in
CinemaScope and Technicolor, is
based upon the actual Civil War
raid for which the first Con-
Eressional Medals of Honor were
awarded. For the most part 1t is
a straightforward movie chase
sequence as concocted by Writer
Producer Lawrence Edward Wat
kin. A band of Union soldiers in
multi, led by Andrews, pene-
trates deep into Southern terri
tory and steals a train. The OBJ
ject of the raid is to burn the
railroad bridges along the line
and cut the Confederacy in half.
1t would have worked, too, as
related here. but for the stub
bornness of the trains conduc-
tor. William A. Fuller, whose re-
sentiment of the theft was so
high and pursuit so logged that
the daring foray failed.
Failure or no, it is a mighty
suspenseful chase as directed by
Francis Lyon. Once it is ended
the film says into inevitable anti
climax. from which it is just
barely-retrieved by a break
from a Confederate prison and
a rousing fight. 1t isn't enough
of an anticlimax, however, to
dampen the excitement of that
cross-country locomotive race
