Cowboy
WHEN hotel clerk Jack Lemmon falls in love with Mexican beauty Anna Kashfi, nothing, but nothing, would do except for him to defy her father's wishes and follow her back to Mexico. The only way he can accomplish this pronto is to join cattle driver Glenn Ford's outfit. Since Ford won't hire a green hand, Lemmon leaps at the opportunity to help Ford out of a temporary financial crisis, and becomes an unwanted partner. In the thousands of miles from Chicago to Mexico and back, each hundred or so miles brings a change in Lemmon. He slowly and painfully adapts himself to the uncomplicated code of self-survival — none of the fancy trimmin's like clean fighting, being your brother's keeper, or doing unto others. . . . This is one of the few pictures that shows the real life and man that makes up a cowboy. It's a good, clean life, however, calculated to kill the most rugged in a few months. As the taciturn cattleman, Ford does another of his penetrating portrayals in this excellent, powerful Technicolor story of the days of the real Old West. (Columbia.)
The Quiet American
BASED on the Graham Greene novel, this is the somewhat altered version of an American, Audie Murphy, and a British correspondent, Michael Redgrave, caught up in the internal upheaval of Indo-China several years ago. Employed by a foreign aid organization, Murphy comes to the under-privileged country full of ideas and ideals. Nothing in America could prepare him for this. Very few of the people, like Redgrave's mistress, Giorgia Moll, an Indonesian, give any thought to the future. They have no concept of a word like "security." The very most they can hope for is contentment for the present. When Murphy learns the Englishman can't get a divorce to marry Giorgia, he takes her from Redgrave. Desperate, Redgrave allows himself to be drawn into a Communist scheme that should cancel Murphy's good intentions. An unusually good picture with some excellent performances: Police Inspector Claude Dauphin nosing out the different factions and Redgrave as the man who sentenced him-self to a living hell because he couldn't stand having the only thing he loved

Teacher's Pet
COMEDIES like this starring Clark Gable and Doris Day are about as rare as a happy headline. Big City newspaper editor Gable has a thriving batch of healthy opinions about people who study journalism in schools. Since he had to fight every inch of the way, never even graduated from high school, you can well imagine what these ripe opinions are. On the other hand, take journalism instructor Doris. The daughter of a Pulitzer Prize winning editor, she holds that newspaper reporting is no longer just telling the facts, it's an editor's responsibility to make the readers think. Of course, these two strongheaded individuals have got to meet, while psychologist Gig Young, Doris' tepid suitor, hovers over them like a guardian angel. Nestled in laughs, every now and then some common sense talk comes through and even that looks good in this very enjoyable, sophisticated battle between the city room and the classroom. (Paramount.)
Desire Under The Elms
FROM the first glimpse of the fogshrouded New England farm, the setting for this latest Tony Perkins starrer, you know this isn't going to be any May picnic. Instead, it's one of those despondent dramas — so masterfully done by playwright Eugene O'Neill — in which the characters are doomed by their own desires. Love for a home and land, drives the three people in this. Perkins, having sworn to his dead mother he'll never let continued on page 72
