19 THE OBSERVER, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1957 AT THE FILMS At the Galleries Mr AT THE THEATRE Out of Touch By KENNETH TYNAN Views rroni trie Mr. Whiting's imagination there glows a vision, of an ideal theatre where the playwright is freed from the necessity of attracting customers, where his fastidious cadences arc not tainted by exposure to rank plebeian breath. El is a theatre without an audience. And it exists again in Mr. Whitings imagination as a gesture of defiance against those other, equally mythical London theatres where socially significant plays about concentration camps are constantly being staged to THERE is a great deal to admire in.

The Bridge on tbe River Kval, the new war film at the Plaza. Pierre Boulle's novel about the conflict between different sorts of high fanaticism had iron in its blood, and whenever David Lean's direction is able to catch that irony the effect is prodigious. The story begins with tbe arrival at a prisoner-of-war camp in die Siamese jungle of a new batch of prisoners, led by a dry little ramrod of a British Colonel. The camp is monstrously ill-run by a harassed Japanese Commandant with troubles of his own. He has been ordered to complete in three months' time a bridge across the Kwai River which will form an essential link, in the Burma-Siam railway project, or commit honourable suicide.

After winning, at the cost of torture and solitary, confinement, a personal battle of authority with the Commandant to assure that the rules of the Geneva Convention will be adhered to, Colonel Nicholson sets himself to raise the morale of his men by getting them to work with pride and interest on the bridge. This span across the Kwai is to be something special, something that will endure, something to show succeeding generations what British soldiers in captivity can achieve. Meanwhile an Allied Commando Unit, led by Major Warden, a Cambridge Don who has become a specialist in sabotage, demolition and that line of country," is crawling through the jungle with orders to blow the bridge up. Major Warden and Colonel Nicholson, although their immediate aims are antagonistic, are really as much alike as two peas in a pod. Both of them have the stuff of martyrdom in them both of them are "crazy with courage." HTHE final scenes of the film, when the fate of the bridge is in question, are superbly done, and there is fine stuff in the first houf, when Major Nicholson wins his ethical battle with the Commandant (almost a complete drama in itself).

The longueurs came midway, when the scene is shifted to Ceylon, and an American sailor, played by William -Holden, who has escaped from the prison camp to sport with a blonde nurse on the beach, is Dressed into the Com mando partv oresumablv to rive trie film better chance in the market, ana provide some numerous comment on Anglo-American re- LAST Sunday at the Old Vic John Whiting, whose place among the most eminent living English playwrights, is secure everywhere but in England, delivered the annual lecture on "The Art of the Dramatist." It was an historic occasion. In the annals of the theatre it may indeed come to be regarded as Romanticism's Last Stand, the ultimate cry of the artist before Being engulfed by the mass, the final protest of individualism before being inhaled and consumed by the ogre of popular culture. One pictured, as each phrase of Mr. Whiting's elegant jeremiad came winging out into the dark, some attenuated hermit saint bravely -peeping his chin up while being sucked through the revolving doors of a holiday camp. Even before he began, 1 felt 1 was in the presence of a condemned man.

There was reMRnauon in the very act of his senile, scolded face, and the expression in his large dark eyes ftcemed to anticipate, even to embrace, defeat. He stood before us like one lately descended from an ivory tower, blinking in the glare and hustle of day. He spoke exquisitely of the threats to integrity that nowadays encircled the playwright. He rejected with acorn the idea that a writer should see himself as the spokesman oF a group or class. The cult of the individual." he declared, i ihe basis of all art." To-day the artist was obliged to speak in a "collective voice he was obliged Jo compromise with 11 the masses." who lived in a second-hand world filled with colour prints of Van Gogh." Everything, we swiftly gathered, militated against Mr.

Whiting's concept of pure drama. All we were offered in the modern English theatre ere plays of "social significance," plays set in concentration camps, piay made up of the idiot mumblings of the half-wit who lives down the lane Instead of looking within themselves for their own unique modes of utterance, playwrights were cnnicnt to reproduce the direct, un-om a men led speech of everyday life. Austerity was no longer prized: instead, fashionable authors (Mr. Whiting did not actually name John Osborne) allowed their characters to indulge in long, dishevelled, mo i on a I outburst i. Three years, be reminded us without rancour, had passed since one of his plays had been seen in London even so, he found himself as convinced as ever that it was no part of the author's ob io surrender to his audience by approaching it on its own terms.

A play, he said, has nothing to do with an audience." It was hereabouts that I began to wonder whether we were talking about the theatre at all. Were we not rather talking about poetry or the novel, private art intended to be sampled by one person at a time? Had we not somehow itraycd from the drama, a public art which must be addressed to hundreds of people at the same time? Somewhere in TRADITIONAL AND PORTRAIT STYLES By NEVJLB WALL1S TifR. GRAHAM SUTHER-LANJ'S three-quarter-Jengtb portraits (one standing, one seated) of Miss Helena Rubinstein are temporarily on view at the Tate Gallery, and drawing inquisitive knots of visitors. Though this is his first female sitter, the presentments are very characteristic both of Sutherland's strenuous academic approach, and of the impact of a formidable presence which he can obtain from a viewpoint somewhere below eye level. The seated figure is certainly the more successful of the two, vivid and spirited in a manner which makes the Maugham portrait near it appear oddly mannered.

No 'doubt the grey background, throwing into relief the scarlet sown, and the suggestion of rail at the bottom, are. traces of Bacon's influence, but the spidery creasea and fmickiness of touch are as much Sutherland own as the conception. There seems no good reason now, except prejudice, why the artist should not allow his portraiture to command Gallery, III at the Academy exhibitions. The valuable collection of French' paintings at the Lefevre challenges every visitor to extend the range of his sensibility. Nothing might seem more disparate, for instance, than Picasso's portrait of Dora Nfaar and Fantin-Latour's of Mr.

Authority, only, is common to both. In his dual-profile head, thrown off in '37, Picasso suggests by this device the mutability of human nature, creating an image as vivacious as life. Fantin's, by contrast, is quite rigid. The sitter, an American patron with tbe refined features of a Cecil, is painted with deliberated austerity, the hands placed as precisely in' relation to the head as in an Ingres portrait. This absolute repose focuses attention on the countenance where, in some mysterious way, you become conscious of a train of thought, a hint of motion, the only suggestion of activity in the calculated stillness.

Other unexpected things include an The Ring JESPITE some queasy noises from the woodwind and horns, and one representation of the Curse motive of such eccentric tonality that even that most insouciant of Siegfrieds, Wolfgang Windgassen, faltered for a moment, Friday's Gdrterdam-merung seemed to me just about the best performance of the cycle on the musical side. The orchestral texture was at once rich and translucent, the rhythms majestic (for the most part) and lively. Windgassen. (Gunthcr) and Boehme (Ha gen) repeated their sterling work of last year, and the charming Elisabeth Lindeimeier, the Freia of Das Rheingold. though only flirting with her higher Dotes; admirably suggested the slightly corrupt gentleness of the Gibichungs (the golden apples gone soft J.

Birgit Nilsson, after a Brunnhilde in Siegfrird that was only Beta plus, sudden ly struck oil in her scene with Waltraute. and from then till the end poured out a stream of glorious high As and flats thrilling in their power and brilliance. As an interpreter of Brunnhilde the woman and the lover she remains to my mind dull and unsympathetic; but as Gun-trier's "wilde Felsenfrau" she is formidable. Musically, then. this Cotter dammerung.

like tbe Siegfried on Tuesday, was on the whole a highly satisfactory affair. It is over the staging of The Ring that we must yet again gnash our teeth in shame a nil disappo i ntmen t. The lighting, which had been inclined to take a rest after some triumphs of mistiming in Rheingold. chose on Friday to go really ingeniously astray. When it is not behaving with the capaciousness of a will-o'-the-wisp it has a remarkably static quality, with an encircling ftloom in which a character who steps to one side is completely swallowed up the tarn helm touch.

But lighting, however unimaginative or badly botched, is only a symptom ot a general incoherence. Most of the production inhabits a CAMEO-Raral C. X. Rd. Whl 6QIS.

Miss Mitchell plays a London wife who learns, after twenty years of marriage, that her husband plans to leave her for the girl in the office. There is really not much more to the film than, the wife's reactions, but the acting makes them so poignant, so convincing, so utterly, true to iife down to the smallest detail, that it is difficult to take one's eyes off- this enchantingty sincere performance.

The wonder is that such a mood of understanding, could have been sustained through the necessarily broken progress of a film production. Anthony Quayle plays the husband with a slight air of Stratford-upon-Avon condescending to Stratford-atte-Bow. Sylvia Sims play the girl in the office with the air of a West End wench lost in the East End. Andrew Ray does remarkably well as a gentle-tempered youth perplexed and embarrassed by his parents' problems. The film version of Tea and Sympathy (Empire) has been given an certificate by the British Board of Film Censors; heaven knows since Hollywood has already purified the thing to drivel.

Meaaben 1 6. LONDON ano MANCHEITIft 1 W.H'II.H1 IN an exceptionally good month it behoves the reviewer to reel off as many names as possible, even at the loss of some stylistic urbanity. I will take first the EP reissues, which are now fairly pouring out and which offer the novice or recent addict an ideal means of sampling some outstanding jaz performances of the past. Loots Plays the Blues (Parlo-phone GEP 8627) contains four celebrated Armstrong tracks from 1927. a great year in the Chicago region.

Apart from a few tricks of accompaniment, nothing has dated. Besides Louis, who plays here, with raucous, look, for piercing Johnny Dodds (clarinet) and Kid Ory, whose trombone sounds more like a trombone than almost any. If you have a "collection instead of Just some records, this one must be in it. The Duke Steps Out (HMV 7EG 8249) takes us to 1929-30 and the Ellington orchestra in New York. Cootie Williams and Johnny Hodges are the heroes, the best track Saratoga Swing." a delightful blues distilling a characteristic sprightly nostalgia.

An excellent Ellington to start on. Picasso's Portrait oj bora at tjie Lefivre Gallery. early Uiriilb which anticipates con-lemponMx French realism, and a big Dufrcsoe which calls to mind Dentin. Ax unpsuaVU the. discovery of an expressionist with an unjaundiced.

even tender eye; Without Rouault's tragedy or the bitter-sweet fantasy of Chagall, the. Milanese painter, Guido Pajetta, gives us dreamy girls and beach scenes in emotive- colours which sometimes communicate a tart nostalgia at Roland, Brqwse, and Delbanco'i. But essentially Pajetta is an optimist, and the harsh note of his Deposition strikes also an incongruous one. Upstairs, a summoning cotlection of Henry Moore's drawings and maquettcs includes his timeless bronze figure, the furrows of the dress echoed in me steps on which it broods. Finding sustenance in Gorol and Degas, without subserviency to either.

Mr. Deret Hill is. the kind of pointer whose unfashionable talent is liable to be underrated. His firm construction; and eye for the finest gradations of light, are well seen in crisp little landscapes of Italy and Ireland which 1 prefer to his more emphatic designs at the Leicester Galleries. But there is an interesting departure in a schematic painting of Settignano.

which does not exclude a delicate observation of light breaking through mist. In the adjoining room, Mary Potter imbues her pale world of marsh and stream and window prospect with a gentle lyricism in tune with the Chinese poetry of suggestion. By ADAM BELL no-man's-land between Wi eland Wagner and the old ponderous realism. Even Cavern Garden felt reverberations of the tremendous changes at Bayreuth. but the shock has been sufficient only to crack the crust of the old order, not to LmDOse a new one.

If Wagner's fttage directions are ignored it is not because the new technique of suggestion is subtly at work but simply! one cannot help feeling, because someone has not bothered to find out what they are. Examples could be given in profusion. The most perfect symbol of the production's irresolution is the Wanderer's hat, which hangs in scoutmaster fashion down the back until the moment comes for Siegfried's question; then the wretched fellow must slip behind a rock in order to put it on. Some changes have been made since last year. The new subaqueous light in Act 3, Scene of Gdtter dammerung would be a triumph were it not that the scene is laid on the banks of the Rhine, not at the bottom of it.

Gunther's third-act costume now makes him look rather less like Allan Quatermain on safari Ibut it is time Hagcn shed bis scholar's gown, which gives his appraisal of the tarnhelm "Nibeiungen kUnstliches Werk the air of Sir Mortimer Wheeler dating' a pre-, historic pot). But though moat of the memorable visual effects are of individuals Hotter's sublime despair after Fricka has exacted the oath, Boehme's white, square face starting up from sleep there is some expressive grouping here and there, and even ihe lighting has moments of eloquence. Without making the whole thing over again, a strong hand and a bit of common cense could do a lot to pull it together and give it some shape. It would be idle to expect the equivalent of a Kempe on the production side. But until something serious is done about the production, Covent Garden, for all lis musical prowess, will be fobbing us off with only half a Ring."

ZWEMMER 2h Lilchrirld St. W.C 3 New Pnrw ktSNETH OWN TREE, Oct. U. the vociferous approval of the masses." (Anyone not a playwright belongs, jn Mr, Whiting's mind, to the masses who belied, by the way, their imputed stupidity by turning up in force to hear his lecture, and by asking at the end a number of surprisingly literate questions.) On the whole, i find Mr. Whitinj's theatrical dream-world extremely seductive.

He says it exists, and wishes it didn't. I know doesn't, but rather wish it did. There would be few complaints from me if the West End were full of realistic contemporary plays enthusiastically acclaimed by mass audiences. At one point in his lecture, to illustrate the dcadness of naturalism. Mr.

Whiting read out an invented snatch of dialogue such as one might hear in a bus-queue. How repetitive he implied how drab and dull It was in fact infectiously and riveting alive. One longed to hear more. I realised then, with a sense of wild frustration, that Mr. Whiting was a born playwright determined at all costs not to be a playwright at all.

TF I seem a thought cursory i my treatment of Dinner With the Family Pla yhouse, Oxford), i is because 1 know perfectly well I shall be seeing it again in London before many weeks have passed. Anouilh wrote il in 1937; Edward O. Marsh has translated il wh gripping wit; and Frank Ha user's production is among the best I have ever seen in a repertory theatre. Technically the play is one of the most audacious cheats ever practised on an audience: the art of withholding information has seldom been carried to more tantalising extremes. In the first act a nervous lover bires a house, a butler and two simulated parents in order to give a dinner-party for his new, ingenuous mistress.

In the second act, with a pole-axing shock. we learn the reason for the deception. The hero, so far from being a poetic innocent, is the gigolo-husband of a rich wife, and is blatantly tromping his oldest friend into the bargain. What follows is sheer Pirandello. The real world impinges on Ihe temporary fantasy which self will the hero choose, the pure or the corrupt I will discuss the verisimilitude of Anouilh' answer later, when the play has begun what I hope will be a long run in London.

Meanwtiile, let me applaud the performances of Jill Bennett. Uclena Kidd, Lally Bowers. Ian Hendry, Alan MacNaughtan and John Justin, all of whom seemed to me irreplaceable. First Nights Tuesday: Joyce Grtnfeti at Home (Lyric. Hammersmith).
