Overly of Pipestone, Minn., thinks it’s “halt-calling time” on: ¢, .. the full orchestration in accompaniment to a singer when there is revealed in the scene but & single musieal instrument. “Sometimes,” he complains further, “there isn’t even an instru- ment in view. Occasionally a singer performs out in the open and YET there is the damnable background music to spoil the entire effect, and it does spoil the swellest kind of singing. .". . “Apparently,” this halt-caller pursues, “directors become so abgorbed in the story that they cannot see any of the little things which go to make a picture natural and honest. Too many things are overlooked . . . something like stumbling over a dollar to pick up a nickel. Pictures are sometimes strained and silly because of this. T like my pictures real and natural, with actors doing the THINGS WE ALL DO--little everyday happenings which we can understand and appreciate. So, I say, if there is no orchestra in the scene, then keep out the music. Let singing stars sing to the accompaniment of music they themselves produce. . . . Why not start a quiz of your own and find out how many of these nuisances will come to light?” Oke, Mr. Overly, the quiz is opened. Come one, come all! And while T'll agree with your complaint in some respects, I hope you'll admit exceptions. Did you' see “The Great Waltz'— and that imaginative picturization of the birth of Strauss’s “Tales from the Vienna Woods?” What would it have been without the full orchestra supplementing the natural forest sounds and the music of the roadside workers? This — in my opinion one of the screen’s most memorable hungry? well, well . . pardon our sang froid, but caring for hungry people is our Dusiness, and we know that our '40-cent plate lunch will really do the job. PERCY’S musical sequences — began with something ‘like naturalness: the rhythm of the cab wheels, the call of birds, the songs and calls of field hands and early-morning stroliers; it bullt from these as thie music took form ‘in the composer’s mind, grew and grew to the magnificent outburst of melody which lifted at least one member of the audience -practically out of his seat! This, incidentally, has come to be theé accepted technique (if seldom so ‘magnificently realized) for introducing accompaniment in" unexpected settings. ‘Once upon a time Hollywood thought nothing of planting singing hero and heroine in the middle: of the Sahara and making them burst into song while suddenly, out of nowhere, came a symphonic burst of sound. Today they’ll at least suggest the musical theme in nature, or make it an un- obtrusive continuation of the entire musical score.. (But don’t mind me—Fm of the movie-going clan that's gotta have music, and the more the happier.) On the subject, how many fans have compared the enter- tainment value in two films — one carrying background music throughout, the other just dialogue and sound? Or seen & movie in rough cut—minus the score? Itllmake you doubly gratefut for the musicians and their part in movie-making. What do other fans think about it?
