THE FLAME MD THE ARROW The dash and verve, the thrills and excitement, the romance and laughs that characterized the tremendously popular Douglas Fairbanks films of the silent era have heen recreated for the screen by Warner Bros, in an exhilirating, swashbuckling, hokum-filled pieee of outright entertainment, "The II ame and the Arrow." Burt Lancaster's earlv training as a eircuis aerohat stands him in good stead in his characterization of Dardo, the Arrow, who, with his hand of mountain men of Lombardy, rebelled against the dictatorial Hessians in medieval Italy. Involved in the adventure are Virginia Mayo, the Hessian usurper's niece, who becomes Lancaster's hostage and eventually his lady-love: Kohert Douglas as a traitorous nobleman; Frank Vllenby as the \ icious dictator, and Nick Cravat, Lancaster's former circus partner, as the daring leader's small hut sturdy aide. Produced by Harold Hecht and Frank Boss, the Technicolor epic was directed b\ Jacques Tourneur from an original script by \\ aldo Salt.
