'The Love Machine' Shows More Crud Than Sincerity
By BARBARASCHMIDT Arts and Reviews Editor
the Love Machine, should have a movie, and Craig Machine, "That's what the folks do: pure, unadulterated crud. The movie, which is playing at the West End on Tuesday, represents an age-old trend. Whenever a novel meets with success, a movie producer comes in to help bothering to improve his purchase, the money-hungry producer splatters his book into a movie that mish-mish belongs not in a respectable theater like the Varsity, but in a cinematic Saturday night drunks will watch.
Producer M.J. Frankovich can't receive all the blame for what he did, but what did he have to work with? Jacqueline Susan wrote the
AT ONE POINT in the movie Jackie Cooper, as a television network executive in charge of programming, says, When it comes to hiring someone, Those must be the words of Sincere Susanna herself, mumbling from beneath the rotting trunks of a long dead best seller list.
Even authoress Susan deserves some praise. Her cameo appearance as a news companion is the best thing "The Love Machine" has to offer. Not that she acts well (she grins), but that she is a victim of the suicide of one of the main characters), but at least seeing Miss Susan on-screen gives the audience on which to levy his contempt.
The movie traces the rise to power of Robin Stone. Stone is a mediocre television news commentator who used sex to gain control in the media room. He is a heartless man, the least have everything his own way.
ABOUT FOUR MINUTES INTO the movie, Robin goes to bed with Amanda, the fashion model. Both are happy until Amanda is born and eternal love from Robbie He jilt her, she commits suicide.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Gregory Austin (Dynan Cannon) has been watching Robin on the news. She has noticed that Ryan heads of the network, to promote Robin. Austin (Robert Ryan) doesn't seem to have a mind of his own, so he heeds his wife's advice, realizing her ulterary motives.
Within minutes after meeting Robin, Mrs. Austin sleeps with him. At the same time, her husband is in the midst of a coronary thrombosis. The attack leaves him with the mental breakdown. Austin then drags her husband off the Switzerland to recuperate
Within minutes after meeting Robin, Mrs. Austin sleeps with her husband in his room, her husband is in a coronary thrombosis. The attack leaves him with the mental facilities of a vegetable. Mrs. Austin is given off to the Switzerland to recuperate. Using her power of attorney, she puts Robin Stone in Austin's hospital as an network head for the interim.
FOR REASONS never completely revealed to the audience, several subplots are thrown in by the cast as rate comedian (convincingly played by Shecky Greene) who marries Ebolu, the celebrity host of *The Thriller*. There is a jealous network executive (Jackie Cooper) who relentlessly tries to depose Robin and his homosexual fashion photographer who poses as Robin's friend while desiring to be his
That's only part of the plot. The movie drone on at least 45 mounted cameras will be delirious most viewers will be deliverous with disbelief. Who cares about it?
THE SCRIPT STINKS. With
lines such as "I'm your girl,
You're my love," the *The Love*
*Stinks* sets even Hollywood
trash back 15 years.
Bad Sound, Bugs Mar Big Concert
the worst thing about the movie is the acting. Jodi Wexler, who played Gretchen, all the comph of a dead jellyfish. John Phillip Law, miscast as the sensuous Robin Stone, simply doesn't do a thing. His big line in the movie is, "Anything you have got, you don't have to pray that those golden words are true, for Law hasn't got anything when it comes to acting."
Yes, "The Love Machine" is pure crud. But even crud has its faults. If not, this and other similar devices are also rare, never have made it to the screen.

Ike and Tina Turner saved the show. But before Ike and Tina took the stage, the audience was shocked by the sound of solo performances of the Turner's back-up band and the Kettles. At times the *b*-piece played with the instrument stumping for the Salvation Army on some busy streetcorner. The strong beat and brass it did complemented the Turners.

THEY WORK well together. The long years working two-bit chips for a fine sense of what will bring an audence and Tina and Tina can crowd well.
THEY WORK well together
The sound altered between so-so-good and mediocre. The stage was in the center of the floor, leaving the whole north section off the stage back. These difficulties marred the year's first big concert.

SUA should be congratulated, though, for getting things off early this year. Hopefully, the win won't break future concerts.
