To redeem its sins, 1940 gasped its last but managed to give Broadway two good plays— Elmer Rice's “Flight to the WNest” and the Fields-Chodorov “My Sister Eileen” based on Miss Ruth McXenney's book. We’ve already told you some- thing about “My Sister Eileen,” a gentle and amusing comedy of two Ohio girls in Greenwich Village. We'll tell you about Mr. Rice’s story of a clipper flight from Lisbon to New York by way of the Azores and Bermuda. “Flight to the West” can’t be put down simply as a piece of good journalism, nor yet, by any stretch of the imagination, could it be called a great play. It has grave faults, but tells a great story. The trouble lies in the fact that in the telling a certain amount of dramatic dis- tortion seemed necessary, and that this melodrama weakened rather than strengthened Mr. Rice’s argument. On the clipper plane, speeding to America are a German agent posing as a professor of Sla- vonic literature; a German dip- lomat; an American oilman smeared somewhat with busi- ness-as-usual and appeasement; a Belgian refugee with a blind- ed American husband and a maimed daughter; an American liberal intellectual and a young, recently-married couple of Amer- icans. The bride, daughter of a diplomatic official and the bride- groom, who has some Jewish blood, get rather tangled up in the arguments which start as the ship takes off and end when a bullet, meant for the Nazi dip- lomat, punctures the young hus- b Mr'. Rice ably overstates his case, using his now-famous sym- posium, or Grand Hotel, techni- PHONE 616 que. But at the Guild Theatre, where “Flight to the West” was unveiled, he neither gave the audience greater cause to hate Hitler, nor sent them away with the assurance of tragedy which a great play might have offered. The trouble probably lies in the immediacy of the subject mat- ter. Most Americans agree Hit- ler's a pretty bad guy, that he and Nazi Germany have done bad things. They are slowly com- ing to the realization that Ger- many and Hitler must be stopped, for the sake of the Germans as well as the rest of the world. 3 In telling, the stories of the refugees from Nazi terror, in depicting them in black and white, almost in silhouette, Mr. Rice painted a picture the poignance of which suffered somewhat from the heavy hand with which the paint was ap- plied. He offered some hope when he had the leerican liberal turn away from isolation and pacifism, but a well-writ- ten editorial would offer as much. To tell the truth, “Flight to the West” would probably be a great motion picture—a much greater picture than a play— because of this very immediacy and because as a journalistic medium the movie's got the stage stopped. Lydia St. Clair as the Bel- gian refugee; Betty Field as the young American bride; Hugh Marlowe as her husband; Arnold Moss as the Yankee liberal and Paul Hernried as the Nazi dip- lomat did a great deal for the play with their splendid acting. Eleonore Mendelssohn was a tragic and compelling German- Jewish refugee, and Karl Mal- den capable as the skipper of the plane. The Jo Mielziner set- ting was effective. “Flight to the West” should have the success that Robert Sherwood’s “There Shall Be Ne Night” achieved, .
