In its new form “Ma moves rapidly from Paris to Riviera, thence to New York, to a New Orleans waterfront cafe, Buenos Aires and back to a Paris courtroom. That climatic courtroom scene, remembered from all earlier ver- sions of stage, screen and radio, now is made more intense as the young lawyer-son defends the mother he does not know from a charge of murder. For the plot integration has been built on fast moving ac- tion justifiable to and understand- able by modern audiences. The period now covered is from 1920 to the present. In the opening scenes, Miss George is seen as a pretty, carefree and desirable young woman, dressed in the most fash- ionable creations of the day. From that she drifts eventually to a shabby, harried and desperate demi- mondaine. It is a part made to order for her talents. BLDG.
