Moment Of Decision
For Clair Bloom, Warner Bros.’ “Look Back in Anger,” due .... at the Theatre, can mean a dramatic steppingstone to top international stardom.
Recently she returned from Hollywood where she starred with Yul Brynner in “The Brothers Karamazov” and “The Buccaneer,” but up to nov, she is better known for her stage work.
“Look Back in Anger’ should change all that. As soon as Claire read the role of Helena, third side of this explosive triangular love story, she knew it was the part for her.
Yet it was a part which required a great deal of courage to play, for it was so alien to anything she had done before.
The part required her to switch moods violently—to become a scheming vixen who hides passionate desire under a cloak of calculated hardness. There was, however, much to be said in favor of the role. It would re-unite her with Richard Burton, her co-star in ‘Alexander the Great.’ Also, she would be starring in the film version of a play, the power of which had reverberated around the world.
