Peanuts Made
Scene in Film

HOLLYWOOD R.-Here's
one scene that literally was
made for peanuts.
Spencer Tracy. playing the
political boss in THE Last
Hurrah," was entering city
hall on a location set.
Director John Ford sud-
denly called a halt.
There's not a single pigeon
on the ledge" said Ford.
who ever heard of a city
hall without pigeons?"
Prop man Charlie Granucci
was dispatched for a bag of
peanuts which he scattered
all over the ledge. The feath-
cred free-loaders came in
drHves, and the scene was
shot.

Alfred Hitchcock may be
the past master Of the sus-
pense thriller, but he does
not have the field to himself.
When he departed his native
England to transplant his
talent to Hollywood. 1t soon
became obvious that there
were those left behind will
ing to take up where he left
of. Across the channel were
some others.
The British and the
French have achieved justi-
fable regulations for weav-
ing q suspenseful spell with
a movie camera. Each coun-
try has sent us some classics
in this particular movie
making line. Some of the
British ventures In the field,
including. the old Hitchcock
thrillers, were fabricated so
long ago they have been
exiled to television.
The latest suspense dramas
from Britain and France
"The Secret Place" and de-
moniac"-turned up here by
coincidence at just about the
same time. They are some
thing less than classics, let
it be said right away. BY be-
ing on display simultaneous
ly, however, they offer an
interesting contrast in sus-
pense styles.
Not a Repeat
Both are fairly typical.
They demonstrate clearly the
different approach Of a
British and a French director
to a sequence that will get
you on the edge of your seat
or tingle your spine.
"Demoniac" is an attempt
10 repeat by Director Luis
Saslavsky and Writers Pierre
Boileau and Thomas Mar
cejac, the team that pro-
duced the flrst-rate 'Dia-
bolique." Unfortunately,
"Demoniac" is not big D"
all over again. but it has its
merits.
1t has its faults. too. the
chief one being that it gets
more confused than it should.
But its very confusion is part
of the madness of Saslavsky's
method. He doesn't waste
any time on exposition to let
you know who his people are
and where they have been up
to now.
He starts right of with a
pair of anonymous men OBJ
viously fleeing from an un-
specified prison to an I'M
named border and the safety
of an unidentified inn. From
here he progresses, at a
slower pace than you might
desire, dropping minor clues
and yelled hints along the
way.
Some Things Clear
BY the time he gets the
principal characters Of his
narrative assembled in a
house in what seems to be
Paris, several things are
clear. Gervais, the remain
ing one Of the two escapes
in the first sequence (the
other has been run down by
a train, has taken his late
friends identity. He seems
to be on the verge Of marry
ing Helene, a sombre piano
teacher.
Helene's sister Agnes seems
to be much more to Gervais'
liking, however, except that

The Towering of Buddy

years as producer under Co

THE PASSING SHOW
Its All Suspense,
In Varied Styles

she is always taking of on
mysterious journeys through
the city occupied by German
troops. The dead mans sis
ter turns up and strangely
does not expose the imposter,
Gervais. Somebody drops a
hint about the latter's past
that makes you fear for any
one crossing his path.
So it goes with Mr.. Saslav-
sky's movie, with confusion
and suspicion compounded. In
the end he employs a gigan-
tic irony at the climax. with
the villain identified and fall
ing victim to the plot that
has been brewing. That's the
French or keep-'em-guessing
method of developing sus-
penSe.
This Ones Clear
The British film Is probably
the better Of these two If
only for clarity's sake. A
simple and straightforward
yarn, THE Secret Place" is
a first directorial effort Of a
man named Give Bonner. He
has been studying his trade
and you are likely to hear
from him again.
He deals here with a pair
of amateur thieves who plan
and commit a daring diamond
robbery, then see the loot
get out of their hands. 1t
gets into the hands of the
young son Of a policeman.
There is no confusion, no
mystery. The criminals want
the diamonds and the boys
life is in danger.
While the chase is on one
of the diamonds "a twist of
fate, not a gigantic irony
has fallen into the hands
of a whole parade Of little
girls. AS it passes from one
to the other. 1t is bound to
come to the attention of the
police sooner or later.
A Fine Sample
There you have a fine SAM
pie of this particular style
of British thriller. There is
no mystery about the iden-
tity of the culprit or cul-
prits and nothing is kept
from you.
Mr.. Bonner still has made
1t a spine-tingler. In pictur-
ing the robbery he has you
holding your breath as he
achieves suspense by threat
ening at any second to blow
the whole plot apart with
some minor miShap.
The climactic chase draws
suspense taut enough to be
almost painful as the boy
with the diamonds is pur-
sued about some building
scaffolding high above the
street. Somewhere else in the
city that diamond is passing
from girl to girl and Mr..
Bonner expertly pits the
slowness of that against the
heat Of the chase.
The British, when they
set their minds to it. can
let you know exactly what's
going on, intimate what will
happen. and still make it
suspenseful enough to have
you on the edge Of the seat.
