HOLLYWOOD, June 7.—One of the locally big movie ques- tions relates to the box-office chances of Sol Lesser's screen ver- sion of “Our Town." Everybody admits it's an “artistic success.” Everything fis “crazy about it." Everybody says it's one of those “sure award contenders.” Everybody admits it's “different”—and everybody is wondering how the movie masses will take it. As one who couldn't help raving the first time he saw the moyie, and who liked it even better the second time, I can't help wondering what all the wondering is about. That is because, naively or otherwise, I persist in believing the movie masses want fine things and will buy fine things provided (1) they have the necessary dinero and (2) learn about the commodity through in- telligent presentation. “Our Town" is an American movie. It is a love story—Boy Meets Girl, if you prefer—with its feet solidly planted in the American soil and tradition, and its bright face lifted to the skies, It is simple, informal, chuckly, warmly human, loaded with “heart” and also with that valuable commodity labeled “nostal- gia.” “Charm” is a poor word to encompass its tender and sym- Whorm and Miss E.

'flfl' QUB FOUN- . TAIN, T/ “Our Town" reminds that nre is worth living, that life is filled with daily wonders too frequently ignored in the stress of living. In my opinion Thornton Wilder’s play, with his own conniy- ance, has been improved in screen translation under Sam Wood's directing hand. The girl (Martha Scott) who died in the play now lives after a dream excursion into Death, where she realizes anew the hold life has upon her. Fhis change, even to any hard- beiled few who haven't fallen completely under the spell of the girl Emily so radiantly created by Miss Scott, should be more than gratifying. There are so many good perfarmances—by Fay Bainter, Beulah Bondi, Holden, Guy Kmbeg,‘ Stuart Erwin, Philip Wood, Ruth Toby, Aythur Allen—that Miss, Scott's work must, bs given extra laurels. As a newcomer of genuine talent, she pill be hailed as an impertant find, and PWWWY Sor “stealing the show.” Without Frank Craven, the narrator, however. ur ’;‘own would lose so much of its intimacy—and hence appeal—that he must K be rated at least her equal for honors desbite the sideline nature | of his yole. ; And if America doesn't 'ake “Our Town” tq its heart, then fU give up and, admit, opd shuld col dlme W chw stuff andi i ngI romances, towboy-ai birthday congratulations.
