THE PASSING SHOW

is represented by Cecil Parker.
Crichton, by sturdy Kenneth
More, Lady Mary by Sally Ann

Crichton's story, of course. Is
that of the perfect English but
Ter who finds his employer, Lord
Loan, suddenly and shockingly
in a mood to tamper with the
rigid English social structure.
Putting his theories of equality
into practice, over Crichton's
objections, Lord Loan gives a
party for the family servants.
The party is a flasco. To give
everyone a chance to forget.
Crichton suggests a yacht trip,
which ends up with the Loans,
two male guests. the butler and
a kitchen maid Shipwrecked on
q tropical island. quite otherwise
unpopulated.
Under Crichton's resourceful
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1958-09-06

leadership, the island is con-
verted into a kind of paradise,
the former butler is its relaxed
ruler and the others are his
devoted slaves. The reversal
could not be more complete,
down to such details as daugh-
| ter Mary Loans utter adora-
ton for her fathers old servant
and Lord Loans infatuation
for his former kitchen maid.
With no damage whatever
to Sir James basic narrative,
ScriptiSt Vernon Harris and
Director Dalrymple have
subtly updated it in its un-
dertones at least. Or, if they
have not, this is the effect of
contemporary playing before
a color camera.
One of the most agreeable
aspects of the quite funny
narrative is that it offers what
might be called the happiest
of unhappy endings. With
out being excessively reveal
ing of what happens, it can
be said that when the party
returns to its native England.
it is Crichton who has the
character to insist upon a re-
turn to the original Loan
household relationships.
This most admirable Eng
lishman as played by More is
captivating in every frame Of
the Macarthur film. He is
that rare man who knows his
own strength in every situ-
alton. giving a surprising kiss
to the kitchen maid or a fare
well word of poignant truth
to lovely Lady Mary.
AS the latter, Miss Howe is
wonderfully attractive, as are
Miss Cilento as the tweeny and
Mr.. Parker as Lord Loan with
with his funny ideas Of
equality.
The others are altogether
personable, just as Sir James
intended.
