At The Movies By Bill Stratton
"Tight Little Island" Pattee Theater
Completely devoid of our native forms of comicality, "Tight Little Island," an English production, provides a type of humor which Hollywood has consistently failed to recognize. The movie boasts neither a big name cast nor a million dollar expenditure. It does provide amusing entertainment, which is more than the rich relative producers in California can say.
It is the story of what happens when a small Scottish island runs out of whisky, and of the hilarious consequences when a ship carrying 50 thousand cases of spirits is wrecked withwing distance of the island. The results, though predictable, are enjoyable for the ingratiating sort of humor which seems to be the singular product of the British.
Dispensing with saloon brawls and "fast on the draw" gunfights that are so common to horse operas, M-G-M brings us an above-average Western called "The Outriders." Phlegmatic Joel McCrea climbs back in the saddle to play the lead role, while some of Utah's travelogue country provides the background scenery.
"The Outriders" Granada Theater
Contederate soldiers Joel McCree, Barry Sollivan, and James Whitmore escape from a Yankee prison camp in Missouri. They join Quantrill's raiders and ride off to Santa Fe to guide a gold bearing wagon train into a bushwhackers' ambush.
Alan Ladd, the unimaginative man's sequel to Paul Bunyan, manages to dispatch only a few people in this one, and we can scarcely urge you to bother with it.
"Captain Carey, U.S.A. Jayhawker Theater
This has to do with a Captain Carey, an ex-OSS officer, who returns to Italy to find the man who betrayed him and his underground workers, including Miss Wanda Hendrix, to the Germans. According to the advance publicity releases, Ladd turns in a "blistering portrayal that for dramatic impact matches anything he has ever done." If this seems to you a recommendation, you have three more days.
Not a bad movie, really, except for the recurring presence of A. Ladd.
