_THURSPAY, OCTOBER 21, 1f48.
Olivier’s 'Hamlet’ Gives Screen
Its Greatest Dramatic Stature
By Jay Carmody
Laurence Olivier, by taking thought in his dramatic fashion, has
added several cubits to the stature of William Shakespeare in the motion
picture "Hamlet,” which opened last night at the Playhouse and Little
Theaters.
The aspect of Shakespeare's stature thus increased is not the cre
ative one, but rather that of more universal recognition, for here is,
perhaps, the greatest movie of all time.
Two brilliant geniuses of story-telling once more have merged their
eloquence and. In that act, have
made it the simple duty of every
one else to listen.
Although he does not think his
work represents anything like a
final word on ‘•Hamlet.” Oliviers
production will make clear to every
one why the tragedy of the noble
Dane is the greatest play ever writ
ten. He calls it an essay on “Ham
let.” This is but a dramatic mod
esty, for it is more an X-ray of the
play’s central figure, a lively study
of "a man who could not make up
his mind.”
Through Olivier; the people's play- i
wright has reached the people. En
tertainment thus, for once, has
achieved its highest purpose.
* * * *
Olivier has taken liberties, as who
has not, with the text of “Hamlet”
but they are such as any disciple of
the bard can only commend. He
has kept the meaning and the music
of the original, and where he has
made sacrifice of depth, he has
added new dimensions to the drama.
His incredibly swift and seeking
camera finds what the eye and ear
have always sought in “Hamlet.”
On the screen, in the blond-haired
figure of Olivier, Hamlet finds his
size. He is a man beset by the
furies of both fate and the flesh. He
Is, indeed, a bit more of a man—a
prince of the realm with more than
a normal responsibility to resist
fate. His tragedy as Olivier sums it
up so brilliantly is not the blud-1
geoning of mad circumstance, but
rather than he must do something
and yet knows not what to do. By
the time he dies at the end of the
play, his tragedy has disappeared,
for in the course of the story's terh
peetuous movement he found out
what to do, and did it. He is worthy,
finally, of his blood as both man and
prince.
* * * *
It is perfect cinema# melodrama
that runs from the eerie opening
scene of the ghost's appearance on
the cold battlements of Elsinore to
the closing one in which Hamlet s
dead body is carried to the same
chill setting. In between, it is a
compound of lacerating frustration,
love curdling into hatred and mad
ness, madness relieved by murder,
vengeance turned from creeping to

lightning tempo, and with more
than a dramatic hint of incest.
Yet into all this darkness of the
human soul Olivier has interjected
flashes of comedy which etch lne
radicabl.v in memory the truth that
this also is a bitterly humorous play.
* * * *
In demolishing the walls which
have confined stage productions of
"Hamlet,” Olivier has yet kept the
faith with his original author. He
keeps his picture almost exclusively
within the bounds of Elsinore. He
makes the palace more real, how
ever, bv showing the walls which
support its towers, the adjacent lake
in which Ophelia drowns, and other
features of its cold and lonely land
scape.
In this enlargement of the royal
enclosure, the principal scenes re
main where Shakespeare fixed them.
The great hall of the castle is where,
bombastic old Polonius bores his
listeners, where Hamlet's heart
breaks at the sight of his mother
wed to his murderous uncle,
where the plav-within-the-play fixes
Claudius’ guilt, and where Hamlet
fights his duel with Laertes, Queen
Gertrude's bedroo.n still is where
the royal, debased mother is spirit
ually iashed by her outraged son.1
and where the stupidity which Polo
nius fancies as guile leads him to
his doom.
These classic scenes, which have
held men enthralled for 300 years,
are magnified by Olivier’s cameras,
but it is into, not out of, their proper
proportions.
Too, these proportions are the

* * * *
The producer-director-writer-star
of ‘ Hamlet” is too much present in
its production to isolate each of his
functions for its specific weight in
the total offering. It is Olivier, the
actor, however, who will be most
remembered. His Hamlet, who could
not make up his mind, is always
more, not less, a man for his in
decision. When his hands are idle,
it is because his mind and heart are
too full of thoughts and emotions
of such thunderous conflict as to
nullify action. In his portrait of
this harassed prince, Olivier has
coined a man whom the indifferent
schoolboy may take to his heart with
as much enthusiasm as the intense
scholar.
Olivier brings more of everything
to his Hamlet, more energy, more
voice, more virility, but most of all
he brings to it more understanding
of Shakespeare's hero who could
think of so many thing to do
he had time to do none of them—
until the course was clear.
This, of course, is only what
he brings to the part. To the play
he brings a singularly well-chosen
cast. Of this multitude of asso
ciates, the most brilliant is Jean
Simmons as Ophelia. Miss Sim-1
mons, a beautiful and vocally j
versatile girl, is none of your stand
ard, restrained Ophelias. She is
rather a gentle, sensitive girl who
can search the emotion of love
deeply enough to find its end in
insanity and suicide. Under Olivier’s!
direction, she is encouraged to do
so. |
In their lesser ways, the
subordinate players of Olivier’s
"Hamlet” make their work equally
unforgettable—Eileen Herlia, as the
amorously adventurou* queen:
Terence Morgan as a Laertes worthy
of Hamlet’s mettle in everything,
especially the brilliant duel scene;
Norman Wooland as the brave,
faithful Horatio who pronounces
Hamlet's nobility and his epitaph;
Basil Sydney, the depraved King
Claudius, and Felix Aylmer as the
unctiously comic Polonius.
They, and so many others, have
helped Olivier give the screen a
new kind of greatness.

Unless they have and heed suffi
cient warning, a lot of people are
due for a surprise at the hands of
"Naked Fury,” the Dupont Theater’s
most recent import from France.
Before being given this title designed
to lure coarse Americans to the box
office, “Naked Rury” was known orig
inally as "Battalion du Ciel” and
later as “They Are Not Angels,” and
it has nothing at all to- do with any
naked furies. It has to do with the
training in England of a group of
French paratroopers and their sub
sequent harassing operations in
German-occupied France.
The message of “Naked Fury”
seems to be that these brutal Ger

wily, brave Frenchmen, a point
which seems, however well taken, a
bit redundant at this late date.
It is not a pretty story Director
Alexandre Esway tells of the
j Frenchmen who were the first to set
foot on their native land when the
time came to invade and liberate it
in World War II. He has made
what might be called a fictional
documentary of the film, which
does lend it realism. For all the
inherent drama in its historic back
ground, however. Mr. Esway hasn’t
managed as much drama as he has
mere grimness. His Germans are
cardboard stereotypes and the in
cidents in his script are a bit too
pat.
Still, "Naked Fury” does present a
rather complete picture of the train
