sisted in making too much noise
in the parlor after he came
home tired from a days work
The only one in the whole lot
for whom you can develop any
sympathy is the doctor and M.
Cayatte has devoted less film
footage to him than to any of
the others. You'll feel that the
others fully deserve what they
get in the neck, which means
that M. Cayatte has hardly
proved his point. He doesn't
prove it, either, by bringing in
the small brother of his orig
inal central figure and winding
up on the optimistic note that
he may be saved the fate that
met his brother.

If you are seriously interested

For M. Cayatte is a very deft
man at cinematic storytelling.
In his opening sequence, for
instance. the camera pans over
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-07-25

BILE for the environment. He
may have a point, at least
enough Of one for a debate,
and it is too bad he didn't go
somewhere and debate it with
somebody.
AS entertainment. his preach
ment in which We Are All
Murderers" leaves a great deal
to be desired. It starts out as an
absorbing drama about the
moral decline Of a not-very-
bright young Frenchman dur
ing the Nazi occupation of
Paris. He falls in with the un-
foreground resistance move
ment and becomes a killer for
it. Apparently this sort of thing
is habit-forming. A personal
killing after the liberation
lands the young man in cell
on death row with a couple of
other convicted murderers and
M. Cayatte's movie gets out of
hand.
1t isn't enough that he diff
fuses interest by giving detailed
attention to several others fac
ing the guillotine. His story
telling becomes murky and in
spots downright opaque as he
pours trouble on his oily waters.
In addition to the resistance
movements Ratchet man, M.
Cayatte tries to get us con-
cerned over the fates of a host
of killers.

Personal but not private:
Charlton Heston. a most i'm
pressive Moses in Cecil B. De
Miles Ten Commandments,
has gone heavy - and appar-
emily with all the weight he
can muster. While Heston has
played a couple of borderline
villains, his proposed persecu-
ton of Gregory Peck in "The

him as one of the nastieSt hero
hecklers in modern celluloid.
That adds up to a strange
situation coming on the heels
of such a reverent. spiritual

der, too. that De Mile no
longer exercises the hold he did
years ago on the future &C.
tivities of those he cast in his
extravagant religious epics.
In making his first "Ten

of two German army officers
and time and place are set.
One throws away a cigarette
and a small boy swoops out to
grab it, fees through a group
of ragged people scavenging on
a refuse pile into a dreary
shack.
1t is first rate movie-making,
establishing a mood without
uttering a word. M. Cayatte
also builds a taut suspense
sequence when the small boys
elder brother undertakes to dis
pose of the cadaver of a Nazi
officer their sister has stabbed
in a shabby hotel room while
plying her trade. His camera
is grimly effective. too. in the
prison scenes as condemned
men shiver the night through
in terror awaiting the soft
stepping guards who will sur
prise them and drag them off
to the guillotine.
There are some good per-
formances involved in all of
this sordid business. Marcel
Mouloudji as the resistance
man, Georges Poujouly as his
young brother, Raymond Pei
legrin as the Corsican and
Antoine Balpetre as the doctor
are especially effective.
When M. Cayatte undertakes
a story that moves in a straight
line he is going to turn out a
whale of q movie.
