COME TO THE STABLE (20th) ♦ ♦ ♦
You’re in for a delightful evening’s entertainment when you see “Come to the Stable.”
Clare Boothe Luce’s delightful, heartwarmer is about two French nuns (Lor¬ etta Young and Celeste Holm) who come to New .England to fulfill a promise that they would build a children’s hospital. Their trials and tribulations bring them in contact with a painter of religious ob¬ jects (Elsa Lanchester) who gives them her stable to use while they work out their plans to build their hospital.
Their good humor and simple faith overcome the many obstacles placed in their way — and when they eventually tri¬ umph you’ll be as happy as they are.
Few pictures boast two Academy Award winners: Loretta Young and Celeste Holm do their “Oscars” proud by the performances they turn in. The sup¬ porting cast is brilliant. And let’s not for¬ get Elsa Lanchester, whose performances always are a highlight.
New team sensation: Calvet and Lancaster.
“Come to the Stable” has warmth and charm.
ROPE OF SAND
(Hal Wallis’ Prod.) . ♦ ♦ *
This picture introduces one of the most glamorous newcomers to come to the screen in a long time. Hal Wallis’ new star, Corinne Calvet, brings a sultry, in¬ triguing new type to movie fans’ atten¬ tion and gets her Hollywood film career off to a flying start.
She’s exquisitely show-cased. Three leading men: Burt Lancaster, Claude Rains and Paul Henreid, make an inter¬ esting background for this young lady’s screen debut.
The story is an action-packed, sus¬ penseful drama about African diamond mines. Corinne adds to the general ex¬ citement of things when Claude Rains hires her to get valuable information from Lancaster. While she’s trying to do this, she falls in love — and the story makes a quick switch. The climax of the picture comes after a series of breath¬ taking violence, cut throats and romantic interludes.
You should enjoy this adventuretype picture. Wm. Dieterle’s direction is sharp.
ROSEANNA McCOY (RKO)
When Farley Granger grabbed Joan Evans — and bit her, there was a long sigh from every female in the audience. Sam¬ uel Goldwyn has turned a wasp-sting into an introduction to one of the most passionate love scenes ever enacted on the screen.
“Roseanna McCoy” is the thrilling love story of a backwoods Romeo and Juliet. In spite of the ancient feud between their families, Johnse Hatfield (that’s Farley) and Roseanna McCoy (14-year-old Joan Evans) find their love greater than any loyalty to kinfolk, and vow to wed. Far¬ ley comes to Joan’s home in the dead of the night and in the impulsiveness of his youthful ardor, he carries her away to the Hatfield cabin. The feud which fol¬ lows is almost history.
A young man we never see enough of is Richard Basehart, who brilliantly portrays psychopathic Mounts Hatfield. His chilling performance should earn him top roles. >
We guarantee you’ll love “Roseanna McCoy.”
