A stage play. Meet a Body"
by Sidney Gilliat and Frank
Launder, is the inspiration of
the farce at the Macarthur.
In its original form, it must
have presented quite q dilemma
Of how to blow up the hero's
victims without setting OF the
theater as well. Patiently, this is
no problem in the movies which
can explode people at will. which
Is precisely what Sim does.

that this is the time somebody
should make good the threat.
Accordingly. he plans another
explosion. this one timed to
catch its naughty victim while
he is keeping q seaside tryst with
an attractive secretary.
AS is the case so often with
the designs Of sheer genius,
Sims gets fouled up here by a
moronic bomb-maker and vac
uum cleaner salesman. Just how
this works out Is much too daffy
and labyrinthine to be summed
up in a sensible newspaper. Let
1t sufiice to say that it could not
be funnier.
It is always one Of the hap
piest aspects Of English comedies
that the people in them shall be
as absurd as the situation in
which they are involved.
This is impressively true Of
"The Green Man." Sims bomber
is the perfect farce figure. q cool,
serious-minded executioner whose
best laid plans get entangled
with policemen who want to
play chess and girls who are
reluctant to die merely because
Sim has no further use for them
There are any number Of
others equally amusing. One Il
the vacuum cleaner man who
senses something wrong and de-
cides to find out what. Another
is the pretty young bride-to-bt

nonsense without shattering it,
fragility. Vivacity is what HI
gets from q group Of players
which, beyond Sim, include,
George Cole. AVN Anglers. Ray.

It could be that "The Greer
