Thursday, September 30, 1954 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN “Black Shield Of Falworth” Is On GinemaScope Screen - “The Black Shield of Falworth,” Universial - International's big, bustling Technicolor adventure story in wonderful Cinema- Scope which opened Friday at the Strand Theatre, is a tremendous show for anyone’s money. Any- one, certainly, who responds to high excitement of chivalry’s gold- en age, to a colorful saga of Mer- rie England’s lords and ladies, a saga wonderfully enriched with heart and humor and swept with colorful spectacle. This story of a fabulous outlaw knight who wooed and won fair lady and who crushed the black- guards plotting against England’s throne owes its excellence to a pa- rade of stellar performances. The show-wise direction of Ru- dolph Mate and the screenplay by Oscar Brodney permitted great de- tail of personal character without sacrificing the larger scale action which backgrounds the intriguing narrative. And how those absorbingly real characters cavort against the broad canvas of the CinemaScope screen—Tony Curtis, an acrobatic duellist and jouster who rises from the huts of the lowly to knight- hood and defense of the crown; Janet Leigh, sheer’ e loveli- ness as she resol: e conflict DO YOU NEED HELP.
