mortal and lost her powers loses most of its allure on film, because the tone wavers unhappily between comedy and some drama. Jimmy Stewart (Page 10. left with Kim) does a blue-ribbon job but Kim Novak lacks the variety necessary to fill her demanding role. family
m-c-m; cinemascope and metrocolor W A protracted but interesting game of cat-and-mouse during World War II is the subject here. Submarine commander Glenn Ford’s one driving ambition is to sink the Jap carrier Shituiru, spearhead of the Pearl Harbor attack. But no knowledge of the whereabouts of his wife and daughter, taken prisoners in Manila, is making a wreck of him. Suddenly the Japanese publish a list of prisoners to be transferred from Manilla to Tokyo, and Ford’s family is on it. Now he can really go after the Shinaru only — that batch of prisoners is on an unarmed transport screening the Shinaru so that she can get safely back to port.

V'V' Chicago in the Thirties is the setting for the type of gangland melodrama that once gave Robert Taylor a memorable role as “Johnny Eager.” In this one, lie’s a crippled lawyer — embittered and cynical, mouthpiece of the mob, spell-binding juries and keeping his clients away from the electric chair where most of them belong. Enter Cyd Charisse, and Taylor discovers a pressing reason to get away from it all. Only the mob, kingpin Lee J. Cobb in particular, can’t quite see it that way. Director Nicholas Ray has worked closely with the set decorator and designer Helen Rose to make this item visually lush and muffle the plot’s familiarity. As an actress, Miss Charisse has her best footage in two torrid dance numbers that are genuine eye-poppers. Taylor plays with his usual competence, and Lee J. Cobb proves once again that no one plays a slob like Cobb. family
