BELOVED INFIDEL— 20th; CinemaScope, De Luxe Color: Cast as novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald and columnist Sheilah Graham, Gregory Peck and Deborah Kerr are most touching when the film becomes just a simple story of a girl who loves a drunk. Greg’s fine! (A) February
BEN-HUR — M-G-M; Camera 65, Technicolor: This epic of Roman imperialism, Jewish patriotism and Christianity’s beginnings is the best of the big pictures about Bible days. Charlton Heston and Haya Harareet as Judeans, Stephen Boyd and Jack Hawkins as Romans stand out in a story that has not only historic excitement but ageless emotions and ideas. (F) February
FLYING FONTAINES, THE— Columbia: New young players Michael Callan, Evy Norlund and Rian Garrick brighten a mild circus yarn, all about the tangled love lives of the boys and girls on the flying trapeze. (F) February
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY— U. A.: David Niven’s hilarious as a fanatical TV-hater, but the chief joke of this thin comedy is less funny, as he endangers his twelve-year marriage to Mitzi Gaynor by babbling about thei’ courtship. (A) January
HOUND-DOG MAN — 20th; CinemaScope, De Luxe Color: Easygoing, country-style story introduces Fabian to films, as a hero-worshipper. Carol Lynley thinks she can get Fabe’s idol, footloose Stuart Whitman, to settle down. Dodie Stevens is Fabe’s gal. (F) December
HOUSE OF THE SEVEN HAWKS, THE— M-G-M: Real Dutch backgrounds make the mysterious goings-on extra interesting. As a tough American adventurer, Robert Taylor is on the prowl for lost Nazi loot. (F) January
JAYEAWKERS, THE— Paramount; Vista Vision. Technicolor: Pre-Civil War western finds Jeff Chandler plotting to be king of Kansas, with Fess Parker’s help. The action bogs down in loo many gabfests. (F) December
LAST ANGRY MAN, THE— Columbia: Excellent, faithful version of the best-seller. Paul Muni’s just right as the old doctor in a Brooklyn slum. So’s David Wayne as a producer who wants to put Muni on TV. (F) December
LI’L ABNER — Paramount; VistaVision, Technicolor: Big, bouncy musical, done with lots of style and color, brings you that crazy gang from Dogpalch. Some are strictly from comicsville; some are real good-looking — like Peter Palmer, Leslie Parrish, Julie Newmar. (F) January
MIRACLE, THE — Warners; Technirama, Technicolor: Sweeping romance of 19th Century Spain gives Carroll Baker a dream role as a postulant who leaves the convent, finds adventure — and men. The part calls for an old-fashioned glamour queen. Carroll isn’t. (F)
January
MOUSE THAT ROARED, THE— Columbia, Eastman Color: Why would a tiny (imaginary) European country declare war on the U. S.? The answer’s full of fun. Peter Sellers juggles three roles, one of them opposite Jean Seberg, who’s a pretty American. (F) December
ODDS AGAINST TOMORROW— U.A.: In this
skillfully made but routinely plotted thriller, Harry Belafonte. Robert Ryan. Ed Begley lend excitement to the story of a bank robbery bungled through race prejudice. (A) December
ON THE BEACH— U. A.: Frighteningly realistic picture of 1964, intended to scare us into thinking — and action. In Australia, Ava Gardner, Gregory Peck, Fred Astaire, Tony Perkins. Donna Anderson await the radio-active doom that’s hit everyone else. (F) January
1001 ARABIAN NIGHTS— UPA, Columbia; Technicolor: Pleasing, if too talky, cartoon feature finds Magoo in old Bagdad. Jim Backus provides his voice; Kathy Grant, Dwayne Hickman speak for the young lovers. (F) January
OPERATION PETTICOAT— U-I, Eastman Color: Upright officer Cary Grant and slick operator Tony Curtis team up for laughs, on a World War II sub that takes aboard nurses Dina Merrill, Joan O’Brien. (F) January
PILLOW TALK — U-I; CinemaScope, Eastman Color: In a slick, bright, thoroughly winning comedy, the New York phone company gets two subscribers (Doris Day, Rock Hudson) together by putting them on a party line. With songs, Tony Randall, Thelma Ritter. (A) November
SUMMER PLACE, A — Warners, Technicolor: Sandra Dee and Troy Donahue make highly appealing young lovers, battling their parents’ problems. Big emotional scenes and sex discussions; handsome settings. (A) December
TAKE A GIANT STEP— U.A.: In a splendid acting debut, singer Johnny Nash is a boy of sixteen, a Negro in a white town, still facing universal troubles as he takes the step from adolescence to maturity. (A) October
THEY CAME TO CORDURA— Columbia; CinemaScope, Eastman Color: Different sort of film that happens to have a western setting, on the Mexican-Ameriean border back in 1916. When the story's tensions separate the men from the boys, Gary Cooper sees Van Heflin as a brute. Tab Hunter a careerist. Ignoring glamour, Rita Hayworth’s great. (F) October
THIRD MAN ON THE MOUNTAIN— Buena Vista, Technicolor: Exhilarating yarn about mountain-climbing finds James MacArthur daring a Swiss peak never scaled before, with Janet Munro to cheer him on. (F) December
— 30 — — Warners: The title is newspaperese for “the end,” but the movie isn’t quite that good. Jack Webb’s tried to make a believable newspaper story. He’s managing editor, David Nelson is copy boy. (F) January
TOUCH OF LARCENY, A— Paramount: Good fun springs from British navy officer James Mason's quick-money scheme. He'll frame himself for treason, sue the newspapers for libel and win Vera Miles from rich, stuffy George Sanders. Pretty clever! — maybe. (F) February
WRECK OF THE MARY DEARE, THE— M-G-M; CinemaScope, Metrocolor: In a solidly entertaining seagoing thriller, Charlton Heston climbs aboard an “abandoned” freighter to come across Gary Cooper — and a sinister mystery. It all has a fine, salty flavor. (F) February
