Massey practically breaks a leg in the rush to club Randy to a pulp and abscond with the money. Randy, however, under the training of terbaccy-spittin' Arthur Hunnicutt, soon is able to teach Massey and his ugly cohorts some lessons they'd never forget — only Massey doesn't live long enough to need a memory. Neat Western, packed with action and tongue-in-cheek brand of humor. Seven Days To Noon Distinguished Films Release FRIGHTENING, yet eye-opening semi-documentary about what could happen if an atomic energy scientist decided to blow up a city. Professor Barry Jones, a British nuclear scientist, cracks up under the strain. He feels that he and his fellow scientists are responsible for the future of mankind — having created such horrors as the A-Bomb and H-Bomb. To give the world a warning, he steals a bomb which is small but powerful enough to level 12 square miles, and sends the Prime Minister an ultimatum: Stop all work on atomic weapons immediately, or London will be liquidated! He allows the government a week in which to decide. Tension mounts as each day goes by without the police or military intelligence finding the deranged professor. The subsequent scenes of the evacuation of London and the deserted empty streets of a once teeming metropolis are chilling, but it remains for the final few minutes to freeze your blood in cold terror. . . . The Redhead And The Cowboy Paramount ESPIONAGE in the wild and wooly Southwest with Rhonda Fleming being more spied upon than spying. Easy going cowpoke Glenn Ford spies Rhonda in a gaming casino. She mistakes him for a fellow Confederate spy. Glenn don't know from nothing what Rhonda is talking about, but Edmond O'Brien, who has his heel hooked over the bar rail, is casually watching the scintillating by-play. All this quiet ends abruptly when Glenn is accused of knifing a man in the back, and Rhonda, the only one who can prove he didn't do it, is galloping across the countryside to deliver a coded message With Edmond's assistance, Glenn escapes and takes out after her. In doing so, he gets deeper and deeper in Northern and Southern spies. All that, spiked by a few heated love scenes, should hold your interest. M Columbia A PSYCHOPATHIC killer, who chooses little girls as his victims, is one of the most repulsive characters yet shown on the screen. Strangely enough, David Wayne was chosen for the role which won't help his fan mail. The detective work, under the leadership of Detective Chief Howard Da Silva, is well-done. Their only lead to the childslayer is that when each victim was found, her shoes were missing. Half-way through the picture, a gang of underworld characters takes over. They find Wayne just as he's about to perpetrate another of his heinous crimes. Unfortunately, when the film switches to other than police work, the arty approach is thrown in and becomes downright corny. As a straight detective picture, this would have had some merit, but as a long-winded plea to save psychopathic killers from capital punishment, it's hard to take. What Hollywood Itself Is Talking About Continued from page 17 "little" mementos of the trip. He has two lions' heads, two sets of elephant tusks, a buffalo and a rhinoceros head, and two zebra skins. Mr. G's new picture, in which he'll be more romantic even than he was in the last one, is "Scaramouche." * * * Howard Duff is kinda sorry Spring is on the way. On account of he likes to dash out his front door and into the ocean in the Winter better than when things heat up a little. Howard's mother came down from Seattle to visit him, his cast, and the gal who still is an important part of Howard's life — Ida Lupino. * # * That new job at RKO for glamour gal Sharman Douglas, which is a combination social-fashion adviser to Jean Simmons (who's doing "Androcles And The Lion" there) and other studio chicks, won't make Peter Lawford a bit unhappy, nor will he hang around in Australia after the finish of his picture for 20th there, called "Kangaroo." * * * Jo Stafford, with tongue in cheek (and try to sing that way), decided to do St. Patrick's Day up real good and green so she asked Helen Neushaefer, the gal who dreamed up colored nail polish, to make her up a special batch to match Jo's Kelly green taffeta frock, specially bought for the day of the Irish. * * * Cute little startlet at U-I, Peggy Castle, and Bob Raines, the attractive and well-liked radio guy at the studio, very quietly eloped to Mexico without letting any of their buddies or bosses in on the plan. * * * It's not going to be very quiet around Columbia for a while because Spike Jones and his zany bunch has been signed up to appear in a Western on that lot. There'll be so much confusion around that nobody' 11 be able to tell whether the varmints went thattaway or 70
