B—16 = AMUSEMENTS. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, 1, TUESDAY, MARCH 16, 1937, C. Belasco Play Lampoons The Ways of Diplomacy “His Excellency” Parleys, at Least i Drama Well Cas BY JAY C T WAS the idea of Leslie Reade in should be something d national conferences. around the idea spite of some author. In he started His failure probabl literalness with which he follows the procedure of those get-togethers in which good neighbors turn out to be more human than divine. At such sessions it is the practice to talk, talk, talk. Mr. Reade, even though he seeks to lampoon the pattern, follows it too closely. Between the barbs which he shoots into the lacquered form of international relations, there are wordy wastelands which cast and audience travel much too unhappily together. You do not the momen other words Mr. is due to the sit through many of ts created by Mr. Reade, however, without an awareness of his courage. Russia may have lost many an encounter at other and more sig- nificant conference tables, but not at Leslie Reade's. There she meets the united front of the nations classified as “capitalist.” Until the very end it appears that the odds against the U. S, S. R. are insuperable. Then comes the denouement in the form of a spir- itual as well as material victory for the representatives of communism That is someth: to make an audi- ence lil but there was enough ap- plause after the final curtain of “His Excellency” to indicate some approval of Mr. Reade’s intrepidity. He dared to give Russia a break and the audi- ence gave him one in return. One suspected, however, that the cheers were more for his spirit than for his art. * ok % x F MR.

Mr. Reade's valiance in attempt- ing to bestow a form of justice which he thinks the world needs is equaled by those who interpret his idea. Some good casting helps “His Excellency” over its more difficult moments. There was Joseph Kallini, for in- stance, who gave a very neat charac- terization of Reade's Italian repre- sentative. Or, if you are the type with a more definite picture of Japan at the conference table, you might find more merit in the work of Bob Lewis as Admiral Daruma of the | imperial navy. The volatility of Kallini is matched by the dignfied, Knowing reserve of the admiral. Ob- | viously he came to the conference expecting nothing and went away with two armfuls of just that. * X k ox “HERE are no startling departures, | really, in the diplomats who sit around the conference table.

INCE Samuel and Bella Spewack’s “Boy Meets Girl” has been greeted | with critical tub-thumpings and bellows of approval here as well as in every other city where it has appeared, it is rather futile to loose another harrage of adjectives at the lusty comedy which returned to the National last night to begin a week's engagement. sheets or swaps stories about the popular successes of the day knows that “Boy Meets Girl” is about Hollywood, that it ridicules the producers and | laughs at the cinema stars, gives the | song writers an off-key tinge and is rabid anent the agents. While driving spikes straight through | the old film formulas of Higher Art, | the Spewack masterpiece of ribaldry | manages to string along a pleasant, conventional story of its own, ending with the right people marrying each other and the wrong people con- demned to go on being forever wrong. If it had no more plot than a cat has umbrellas, however, “Boy Meets Girl” would be momentarily immortal be- cause of its magnificent parodies of film “trailers” and high-powered mo- tion picture production. Its hilarious | gags must also be nominated for the hall of fame, and the characters of two script writers devoted to the fine art of ribbing everything probably repre- sent the Deeper Spirit of Hollywood | more accurately than anything ever said about the place. Thoroughly Satisfactory. While many customers were disap- pointed in the road company which | first brought this playlet to town in | December, the players now at the Na- tional are thoroughly satisfactory. The action hinges on the fate of four | or five persons and an imaginary baby, and I would say the principal characters were all extremely well presented, including even the mythi- cal infant Credit for this fact belongs to Clin- ton Sundberg, the major comedian of | the piece; Betty Field, whose Susie is superb; Larry Fletcher as a fading he-man of the celluloid business, and Frank Fenton in the role of a college man lost in the strange world of | cinema production. Donald MacDon- ald, Nigel Blake and Sidney Andrews | were others who turned in credible | performances. Serious Lapse of Pace.

The reliable talents of Marie | Dressler and the freres Barrymore, | Lionel and John, combine with satis- | fying pulchritude of Jean Harlow and Madge Evans to provide thoroughly enjoyable footage.
