THE SCREEN; Walk in the Sun,' Sincere Film About the War, Comes to Victoria- -New Bills at Criterion, Rialto At Loew's Criterion At the Rialto. Your response to Lewis Milestone's brave film version of Harry Brown's classic war story, "A Walk in the Sun," will likely depend, proportionally speaking, on whether you have read the book. Dragon Ball Super Episode 37 Raw. And if you haven't had the rare experience of absorbing the original, then you will surely find this film at the Victoria a swiftly overpowering piece of work. For Mr. Milestone, producing and directing, has followed Mr. Brown's intense report of a small beachhead maneuver near Salerno in a literal reproduction of episodes.
He has picked up the platoon of American infantry, which is the collective protagonist of the tale, at precisely the point that Mr. Brown did—as its landing barge drives toward the beach. He has faithfully recorded with his camera the calamity which befell the lieutenant, the confusion of the sergeants and their dilemma as they go ashore. And then, in a sequence of vignettes which include the subsequent actions and talk of twenty of the men, he has followed the platoon as it probes inland toward a farmhouse—its perilous "walk in the sun.""The book was my script," said Mr. Milestone to someone the other day, and that is substantially evident.
For virtually every detail, with a few technical alterations, has been photographed sequentially from the book. As a consequence and in a manner which achieves the fullest from the photograph, he has captured in illustration the complex tensions of that desperate, ravaging "walk." He has given a completely graphic picture of the natures and responses of the various men, their humors and whims and nerve reflexes as they move in isolation toward the unknown.
In this, Mr. Milestone has been aided by a generally superlative cast—a score of speaking actors who play infantry men credibly. Most impressive is Dana Andrews, who makes of Corporal (here Sergeant) Tyne an intelligent acute and sensitive leader of the pathetically confused but stubborn group. Richard Conte is robustly endearing as a cheeky machine- gunner, and Sterling Holloway, George Tyne and Lloyd Bridges are variously appealing in other roles. A bit of theatrical ostentation is in Herbert Rudley's Sergeant Porter (he's the one who cracks up) and Norman Lloyd is plainly acting as the cold and cryptic Archimbeau.

However, the performance in toto is consistent with the film's authentic tone. But readers of the book are almost certain to find the picture falls considerably short of the cumulative force of the original—and that is, perhaps, inevitable. It is patent that the camera's observation cannot lay bare the insides of the men as did Mr. Brown's lean, unvarnished and thoroughly comprehending prose. The terrible uncertainty of the soldiers, the oppressive sense of lurking peril and doom, all the inner stress suggested in the writing is but surfacely envisioned on the screen. And the transcendent bomb- burst of emotion which forms the climax of the book is not achieved.

Mr. Milestone has hopefully endeavored to lift the audience to a high, reflective plane from time to time by handing the sound- track to a singer of heroic ballad- verse. The music and words are disturbing but the device does not come off too well, mainly because it encroaches upon the illusion of the literal scene. Mr. Milestone should not have attempted to mix real and expressionistic styles. His picture is most effective when it dramatically documents. However, don't let these side discourses deter you from seeing the film. A Walk in the Sun" is unquestionably one of the fine, sincere pictures about the war.

As the eminent psychiatrist of "She Wouldn't Say Yes," Rosalind Russell advocates emotional control as a prerequisite of a well- ordered mind, and presumably a happy life will automatically follow. But Miss Russell has considerable difficulty proving her theory on the screen of Loew's Criterion, being burdened with a pixyish father like Charles Winninger, a doctor himself, and a young man like Lee Bowman, who draws a comic strip and is naturally extroverted. He meets the attractive "mental peeping torn" by slamming a door into her face, knocking her down three or four times in orthodox slapstick fashion, and proceeds to disrupt her composure by telling her that she is full of inhibitions. The lady, it seems, has no time or inclination for romance.
But Mr. Bowman, as the artist- father of "Nixie," an impish cartoon character which says life would be a lot more fun if people would give in more often to their impulses, has both the time and the inclination. Well, Miss Russell is very sophisticated and Mr. Bowman is very persistent, and ardent, and there is many a well- intentioned comical twist and turn as the plot unfolds. Unfortunately, "She Wouldn't Say Yes" seldom gets beyond the "intention" stage. For in producing this farcial romance.
