FURY AT FURNACE CREEK
(20th) . 444
Fort Furnace Creek in the Furnace Hills of Arizona is the setting for this western thriller starring Vic Mature, with Coleen Gray, Reginald Gardiner, J. Far¬ rell MacDonald, Glenn Langan and Albert Dekker.
Vic’s out to clear the name of his father, General Blackwell, who was un¬ justly accused, but never proven inno¬ cent, of aiding and abetting an Indian massacre.
It takes a little time (90 minutes of film time) to do the job but Vic comes through after bucking up against triedand-true villains Roy Roberts, Albert Dekker and Fred Clark.
Coleen Gray provides the heart in¬ terest but has little opportunity to further the nice start she had in “Kiss of Death.” Glenn Langan’s portrayal of Vic’s brother won’t please his fans at all— it’s so uninspired. Another miscasting is Reginald Gardiner’s role of Captain Walsh. This fine comedian deserves a better fate than a namby-pamby part like this! Charles Kemper’s scenes are few and far between, but he’s a joy to watch. His Peaceful Jones is a delightful character and does much to make the picture more enjoyable. This is an exciting picture with lots of suspense, shooting, action to guarantee a pleasant evening at the movies. The kids will just love it, too!
RUTHLESS (Eagle-Lion) . 4 4 4
Portrayals of selfish people seem to be popular these days. Zachary Scott can now be added to your list of calculating meanies. Through the eyes of his best friend, Vic Lambdin (Louis Hayward),
“Ruthless” tells the story of Horace Vendig’s (Zachary Scott) life; how he was adopted by a family who gave him such advantages as a college education, not to mention the love of their daughter Susan (Diana Lynn). But Zachary isn’t satis¬ fied with his lot. He aims to be great, regardless of whom he hurts. He throws Susan over for Diana (Martha Vickers), cream of Boston society, to further his own social stature. Then he transfers his affections to Christa Mansfield (Lucille Bremer), wife of tycoon Buck Mansfield (Sydney Greenstreet) . Vendig’s interest remains with Christa only until he ruins Buck financially and breaks up his once-happy marriage.
Vendig achieves his goal of great wealth and prestige — but knows loneliness too. When he meets Vic’s fiancee, Mallory (again Diana Lynn), he’s remi ided of happier days. Mallory insists she’s Vic’s girl but Vendig won’t give up that easily!
The authentic costumes of the twenties are sensational. Stand-out performances are turned in by the whole cast. The love scene between Buck and Christa will knock you for a loop. Everything about it adds up to a really splendid film.
ROMANCE ON THE HIGH SEAS
(Warner Brothers) . . . . 4 4 4
Warners’ new Technicolor musical is so jam-packed with good things we could never describe them all. The plot is an involved one, but ' delightfully so. The capers a mistaken identity situation leads to are a lot of fun.
Doris Day steals the picture. She’s no newcomer to show business, incidentally, having sung with top bands and on the radio for years. After this picture she can establish herself in Hollywood, for she’s “in.” She’s terrific on a song — be it sweet or swing. Just wait until you hear “It’s Magic” and “Put ’Em in a Box.” We hope this blonde pixie will be around a lot from now on. She’s so refreshing!
Jack Carson’s wonderful, ’miff said!
Oscar Levant is, too. He doesn’t concentrate on music but his lines are so amusing you won’t mind not hearing him play the piano more. Janis Paige and Don De Fore supplement the cast and play their roles adequately. But the show is for Doris and Jack; no one else seems to matter.
The Page Cavanaugh Trio supplies much of the music. Avon Long and Sir Lancelot each have exciting Calypso specialties.
Go see it. You’ll love every minute of it. It’s extravaganza with a capital E. No expense was spared to make it loaded with fun — and so it is!
Carson and Day have fun — and so will you!
Together again: Vic Mature, Coleen Gray.
