tale of high (very high) adventure. Margaret Lockwood, resplendent in the furbelows of the period, plays with gusto a sensation -seeking, heartless hussy who feeds on excitement and danger, breaking every last one of the Ten Commandments.
Bored with her rich, noble husband (Griffith Jones), she leads a double life, sharing the daring exploits of highway robber James Mason (“The Seventh Veil,” “The Man in Grey”). True to tradition, Mason makes him an extremely romantic fellow who, unlike Robin Hood, has no altruistic ideas about robbing the rich to help the poor. Patricia Roc, as Margaret Lockwood’s ill-used cousin and rival, is a beguiling picture of innocent girlhood, playing that old game: “He loves me, he loves me not . . .” Michael Rennie is wooden as an admirer who shuttles between the two cousins, never completely at ease with either one.
A glaring fault of a very faulty script is that its characters are in the white-asthe-driven-snow or black-as-the-night category. What finally emerges is a heavyhanded affair which cries for the tonguein-cheek treatment that made “Kitty” so amusing. Let it be said that Lockwood is a finer actress than anything she’s given to do here reveals.
Your Reviewer Says: Well — it has Mason.
Bringing up Father (Monogram)
WHETHER you’ll find this corny or comical depends on your fondness for cartoon characters. Jiggs and Maggie are, of course, old favorites with readers of the funnies who pursue their ups and downs avidly. Their creator, George McManus appears here, too, probably to see that poor, henpecked Jiggs doesn’t get too much of a going-over from his shrewish sidekick who wields a mean rolling pin.
Joe Yule and Renie Riano bring to life the browbeaten Jiggs and his eagle-eyed missus with Tim Ryan taking over the part of restaurateur Dinty Moore. They’re a laugh-provoking trio if you’re in the mood for that sort of shenanigans.
