RFPiim ir, ALL EDITIONS Phoenix, Saturday, Nov. 2, 1974 The Arizona Republic D-19 Art Carney outstanding in 'Harry and Tonto' VALUE SPECTACULAR Get this new 1975 "HARRY AND TONTO," (R): staring Art Carney, Hlen Burstyn, Phil Burns, Chief Dan George, Geral-dine Fitzgerald, Larry Hag-man, Joshua Mostel and Arthur Hunnicutt. At Thomas Mall Cinema. (115 minutes') rousing the old man's spirit of adventure by coaxing him to detour to Indiana and his old love. I could go on and on about all the colorful character etchings.

I think "Harry and Tonto" is a good movie and Art Carney is excellent.

TO 1 HOOK 501 N.7TH AVENUE 252-724! The most wonderful memento one takes away from the charmingly sophisticated and sagacious wise tale of an old man's cross 23'swivel base consolette at the price or $EQQ95 iLI I under the influence, his cellmate is an Indian medicine man (well done by Chief Dan George), busted for practicing without a license. Harry tells him about his cat, Tonto, who's named after The Lone Ranger's red-skinned aide. "Who's The Lone Ranger?" deadpans the Chief, who says he never had a radio but owns a TV. It is one of several laugh-provokers in this episode. The supporting cast is studded with delightful cameos.

They range from Herbert Berghof's park bench socialist to Ellen Bur-styn's oft-wed daughter (who provides the reason for Harry's Chicago sojourn). Zero Mostel's son, Josh, remembered as Herod in "Jesus Christ Superstar," is good as Harry's grandson who sheds a Zen-macrobiotics-silence vow existence to head to a Colorado commune (from the scene lensed in Sedona) with a 15-year-old runaway to whom Harry gives a ride on the way to Chicago.

Arcadia U. Phi. stand country Odyssey with his cat is that Art Carney's Harrv is no a The MANDALAY Grained Kashmir likable and warm script. The latter seems to be spontaneously episodic as Harry encounters assorted characters on his journey across the United States after leaving New York. But it tends to get a mite draggy in the last half-hour of the film.

Not enough, though, for critical nitpicking. Producer director co-writer Paul Mazursky is to be commended for this wonderful portrait because too few movies deal with the elderly and contain the wit and originality as does this one. Which leads to the regrettable fact that an unnecessary scene (though funny and enjoyable and not really improper), when hitchhiking Hary's given a lift to Las Vegas by a horny hooker, and a four-letter expletive uttered by Harry's grandson in a fun context, give this film a very unfair R-rating. Young folks should see it If only to better understand oldsters and to understand through the young adults In the movie that it is more than possible to communicate on an equal and wide scale with senior citizenry. There's a moving segment when Harry finds his semi-senile first love (a marvelous cameo by Geraldine Fitzgerald) in an Indiana rest home.

And truly laughable bit: When Harry winds up in a Las Vegas jail for doing something in public while Walnut color. Advanced Chromacolor Picture Tube. Titan 300V Solid-State Chassis. Power Sentry Voltaqe Regulator. Chromatic One-button Tuning.

One tends to take with a grain of salt many of the New York critics' evaluations because of their tendency to sprout superlatives at the sight of anything sophisticated to their jaded, blase and bleary eyes. I know.

I once was one of them. But their critique of the Carney performance is on target. It is on target simply because Carney, who turns 56 next week, poignantly portrays a septuagenarian, a witty and learned 70 year -old who is able to cope with and adjust to many of the problems of his generation. Actually, it is his Oscar-bait performance which overshadows eminently chassis I' Weight by Listening to KBUZ Tonight at midnight till 6:00 AM and each night thartaftar through Nov. 1 71 Juit set your radio dial toKIUZ-AM1310or KBUZ-FM 104 for our "Weight Reduction Sleep If arning Experiment." it's Free!
