soap bubbles are something

My Epitaph." at the Trans-Lux
Theater, is a fine movie.
Among those contributing to
this refreshing result are those
players already named (the
singer is James Darren) who
portray the motley band of
buns with warmth and convic-
ton. Barren, who has no over
abundance of lines, gives a real
glimpse into the boys agonized
emotional conflict. The other
actors are real professionals,
and could not add any further
evidence to that description
than in the beautifully under
played deliveries they con-
tribute here.
The picture, which deals OBJ
viously with a number of
shocking subjects. is not a
shocker. Thanks to the def di-
rection of Philip Leacock, some
careful and sensitive dialogue
by Robert Presnell, jr., and a
moving, moody musical score
by George Duning, it's a power

maniac by her poor, worn out
husband.
= So
AS usual, Mr.. Williams has
laid down some challenging
characters for those talented
performers who leap at a
chance to act for him. Despite
the threat of reasonably early
unemployment, Barbara Bax-
ley and James DAILY are arrest
ingly energetic as the hysteri-
cal bride and the marital vet
eran who tries to save her mar
riage to his old wartime
companion.
Robert Weber Is more
touched than touching as the
latter, but this is Mr.. Williams
intention for him. A funny
thing both make of it. if not
really funny enough. Rosemary
Murphy, as Days wife, stops
being a reference point only in
the third act. Here she shows
up as rather a pathetically mis-
understood type, a Williams
speciality which Miss Murphy
uses to good purpose.
Nevertheless, Period of Ad-
justment" leaves the feeling

So, as in earlier crises, they
get together on Christmas eve
and in the crumbling, tumbling
down Spanish-type shack Of
the older hero in Nashville,
Tenn, to fight a new common
enemy.
Mr.. Williams Ingelike
characters are forlorn and
funny, more of the first than
the second and rather to the
disadvantage of Period of
Adjustment" The dominant
pair are the older buddy, whose
five-yearS' marriage has just
gone on the rocks, and the girl
whose honeymoon night was a
frigid disaster in the Old Man
River Motel.
Patiently, these are two hui
mans with something to talk
about. The unfortunate thing
is that they don't know very
many words, or the right ones,
so to take the curse of the
repetitious chatter. the girls is
relieved by a Sweetwater (TexJ
accent. While she uses this to
lament her bridegroom's we'd
ding night aggressiveness, and
the fact that they are travelling
in 1852 Cadillac funeral par
lor limousine. he keeps coming
up with the same consoling
answer.
why, honey" he keeps say
ing, you're just going through
a little period of adjustment"
So is the audience and nei-
ther it nor the girl is doing
very we'll.
George Roy Hills problem of
directing Period of Adjust
ment" is made easier when the
other two parties to the dual
marriage f1ops get into the
action. The girls husband turns
up as chap with the shakes,
an impotence fear reaction that
the girl failed to recognize
when she was his (student)
night nurse at a neurological
hospital.
He helps stir things up a bit.
So does the older mans wife.

Period of Adjustment" deals
with two married couples. One
of these is troubled by the
