The Passing Show
"Shane's Echo and Shadow
Visible in Metro's 'Hondo'
By Joy Carmody
Although it looks enough like “Shane” to be a blood, or ink,
brother, “Hondo” is not that closely related to the earlier film made
by George Stevens.
“Horldo”, now on the screens of the Metropolitan and Ambas
sador theaters, is a better than average western, however. Two of
its virtues are a basically solid
script and the ring of authen
ticity. Another is one of those
laconically red-blooded perfor
mances which John Wayne gives
off so effortlessly and a fourth,
the producers’ daring in casting
Geraldine Page as Wayne’s co
star.
Although movie audiences
never heard of Miss Page, she
is a plain girl with a high acting
voltage who surprised Broadway
last season. She amply justifies
the chance Director John Far
row took in casting her so prom
inently in her first Hollywood
assignment.
“Hondo” is in 3-D and, to the
credit of the somewhat dis
credited new process, it looks
much better through the new
type polarbid spectacles the
management is providing now.
** * *
It is pure coincidence, Holly
wood explains, that “Hondo”
bears such a close outward re
semblance to “Shane.” This
could be, but it is startling never
theless.
In it, Wayne plays a gunman
with a conscience just like the
one Alan Ladd impersonated in
the earlier film. Moreover, he
takes up residence in a remote
settler’s home, one equipped with
young woman and small boy,
which might be the “Shane”
setting shot from the other side.
For all this similarity, “Hondo,”
differs both in flavor and artistic
merit. It is a much lighter
hearted picture, for one thing.
Wayne's gunman, unlike Ladd’s,
is not a very grim man. In
being the father to the boy
whose father he is not, he has
some interesting ideas on child
rearing. Also in courting the
boy’s mother, he can see no
ground for feeling inhibited be
cause she happens to be married.
These provide handy comedy
contrast for the more exciting
phases of the plot, which has
to do with an Apache uprising
and how Wayne saves himself,
the settler’s wife and child.
** * *
Although it is not insistent in
its morality, “Hondo” dwells to
some extent and in a homespun
way with the subject of honor.
Wayne's hero, for example. i$
quick as a snake to kill a fellow
human but he can’t tolerate a
liar or a man, or woman, who
breaks his word. Moreover,
Hollywood Diary
Cairo Movie Fans
Don't Mind Delay
By Sheilah Graham
HOLLYWOOD.
When the plane carrying
Eleanor Parker, Robert Taylor,
Carlos Thompson and Kurt Kas
nar to Egypt for the filming of
“Valley of the Kings,” was five
hours late, it didn’t keep the
4,000 people at the Cairo airport
from greeting them. In fact, the
crowd waited until 3 in the morn
ing for the plane to land, and it
took the Holywood party an hour
to get off the field.
Producer Stanley Kramer
comments: “If ‘Caine Mutiny’
isn’t a hit, I’m going to turn to
playing professional football.”
And he could do it, with those
shoulders. But I don’t think
Stanley has anything to worry
about.
June Haver made her first big
public appearance since her re
turn from convent life in true
Hollywood style at the testimo
nial dinner for former boss Dar
ryl Zanuck. The photographers
swarmed around June and the
popping flash bulbs raised the
temperature of the room 10 de-'
grees. . . . And all eyebrows were
raised when Jeff Chandler twoed
with Mona Freeman as more
than 700 celebrities turned out
to pay trfibute to 20th Century-
Fox’s production chief.
Jack Benny, master of cere
monies, got the biggest laugh
when he demanded a refund of
the pennies he put in parking
meters for the time he didn’t use
up. And he appealed to Gov
ernor Knight, Senator Knowland
and Los Angeles Mayor Poulson,
seated around him to use their j
political influence to help him.
Shirley Temple’s speech was
the most touching. And she drew
a laugn when she told how her
former boss watched over her so
well as a child to see that she
didn't catch any germs, that
she’s now making up for it
by catching the measles and
chicken pox from her children!
. . . The reading of President
Eisenhower’s letter brought tears
to Zanuck’s eyes.
Director Mike Curtiz was the
first to stand and bring the huge
crowd to its feet in paying hom
age to Gen. Mark Clark, Gov.

| when the Apaches let their
blood pressure roar over what
they regard as wrongs by the
1 whites, Hondo is a fellow who
| sees justice in their reprisals.
| In its illustration of this
’ strange blend of human virtues
! and vices, “Hondo” spins along
at a pace and violence craftily
adapted to the taste of Western
| enthusiasts. When it needs the
filip of a blood-letting, on a
[ personal or mass scale, the
1 script always has one handy. It
I is also ready with the relief of
a mere physical brawl, in each
1 case fought out in the spirit of
1 muscular fun.
With Wayne’s Hondo a mere
echo of 20 or 30 previous char
acters he has played, the really
noticeable piece of acting here
is that of Miss Page. In her
opening scenes, she is clearly not
at home before Director Farrow's
cameras but she is eminently
' sure of herself as the picture
gets older.
There is nothing special about
young Lee Asker as there was
in the case of Brandon de Wilde
in “Shane,” but as an Apache
i with an instinct for social jus
tice, Michael Pate joins Miss
Page in a visibly interesting per
formance.

SATURDAY SUMMARY: Fea
tured in the current issue of
Life magazine under theater is
; Washington’s Thomas Noyes,
leading male character in an ar
ticle: “So You Want to Be a
Producer.” ... It is the story of
a new play producing team—
whose other member is Miss
' Lyn Austin—which lost $150,000
on two near-misses this season.
. . . . Both plays, “Take a Giant
; Step” and “The Frogs of Spring”
attracted enough attention that,
says Life, “for all their woes,
i Austin and Noyes have won the
respect of Broadway and also
Knight and Zanuck . . . Mrs.
Zanuck should have been given
an award for looking so lovely.
You knew she had just returned
from Paris after one look at the
beautiful white gown she wore
. . . and Susan Zanuck in a
huddle with Warner Brothers
casting head Solly Baiano. May
be Warners will beat 20th-Fox
to signing Susan for a picture!
** * *
Jack L. Warner, at the jam
packed cocktail party before the
dinner, walked over to the or
chestra and demanded to know
if their union dues were all
paid up. Said he was “covering”
the party for Petrillo.
All of 20th-Fox’s young stars
were on hand. Among them,
Mitzi Gaynor with Jack Bean,
Jeff Hunter with wife Barbara
Rush, Terry Moore, Bob Wagner
|. . . and Frank Sinatra, set. to
start “Pink Tights” at 20th with
; Harilyn Monroe, was there. It
seems Frankie is not succeeding
in talking Ava Gardner out of
1 the divorce. And, although every
thing was nice and friendly dur
ing the week-end meeting, Ava’s
going ahead with the suit. She
leaves any day for Europe and

The Eastern Press was wined
and dined here after its nonstop
record flight from New York via
American Airlines. Hal Hayes
tossed a gala wingding for them
in his fabulous hilltop house.
Scott Brady and Ginny Simms
were a woosome twosome at the
Hayes party. And Vera-Ellen in
a goregous gold gown was al
most unrecognizable with her
new hairdo.
Sterling “So Big” Hayden, Ann
Miller, the Robert Cummingses,
! Hugh O'Brian and Tony Quinn
were among the guests. . . .
Johnny Ray dashed in for a fast
hello before dashing back to
Ciro’s for his last show, and
practically took the entire party
back to the night club with him.
Wendell Corey claims he’s
I “the only actor working steadily
who's looking for an agent. But
he must be four feet eight inches
tall, and must not talk about
how hard times are!”
Guy Mitchell, opening at
j Ciro's, was telling Jack Carson
about his injured leg which re

[ “Red Garters.” seems the leg
