"POWER AND THE PRIZE" SEE ADDITIONAL on FRECUDKIG PAGE WW. Ml Loop Shovs DECEMBER'S BEST FILMS Seven Wonders of World "Anastasia" La Strada The Silent World Baby Doll By Mae Tin ee The last month's top films offer viewers a trip around the world; an exploration of ma-tine depths; a beautifully balanced story about a missing princess, and two blunt and penetrating studies of some drab people. "Seven Wonders of the World." The illusion of depth and color in this third Cinerama film are excellent.

While the three strips of film projected on the screen are not always perfectly matched, the camera's subjects usually are interesting enough to make the viewer overlook these imperfections. Viewers of the two previous Cinerama editions were polled as to choice of future fare, with the vote unanimously for more travelogs. So this world tour takes off from the United States and heads for South America, then moves to Africa, to the Holy Land, to Japan for brief views of pretty dancing girls, to India, and then to Italy. The exciting roller coaster in "This Is Cinerama" is equaled by a runaway train in Darjeeling as it careens madly down a mountainside. Many ancient landmarks, vast desert wastes, and towering falls are well photographed.

A most impressive episode is a visit to St. Peter's and to Castel Gandolfo, with fine closeups of Pope Pius XII. A a a i Beautifully balanced with history and fantasy woven into a background of searing sorrow and royal pomp, this is one of ihe year's most enjoyable films. It is presented with wit, warmth, delicacy, and skill. I think Ingrid Bergman is more beautitul than ever.

As the haunted, harassed Anasta-sia, she gives one of her finest performances forthright and deeply moving. She has excellent company in Yul Brynner as Col. Bou-nine, one of many white Russians who formed a struggling colony in Paris after the 1918 Russian revolution. Determined to fight his way tip in a new world, he is ar rogant and ruthless in pursuit of a girl who can fit into a leg end and collect a 10 million pound legacy. He finds a forlorn creature hovering on the edge of the Seine and proceeds to capitalize on her similarity to the royal Anastasia, who, according to rumor, was wounded but not killed when royal family was wiped out.

Greatest foe is Aflastasia's "grandmother, a stern, strong eld lady, who has survived much, including several previous spurious grandchildren. tumultuous, tortured meeting of Helen Hayes and Bergman provides one of the most moving scenes of the year. "La Strada." Giuletta Ma-sina plays a fey, rather slow witted girl, one of a large, poor family. She is sold by her harassed mother to help feed and clothe the large fatherless brood. The buyer, a burly, animalistic man, has no warmth or tenderness in his hulking body.

He's a traveling strong man in need of an assistant, and a dull girl who will do his bidding in all things is merely a physical necessity. Anthony Quinn gives a de vastating pertormance as a man who has no heart or time for kindness until too late. He dominates the screen in com pelling and completely capable fashion. What an actor he is! Richard Basehart also is ex- MOVIE INDEX Pjg. Col.

KHtK captain's floating laboratory and is fatally lacerated by the ship's propellors. They do their best to put it out of its misery and then have revenge on the enemies of all mariners sharks when they' attack the helpless whale. Baby Doll." An old, dirty, and dilapidated mansion, with holes in the roof, rotting floors, chickens and hound dogs roaming freely thru its echo ing rooms, sets the scene for this sordid, skillful tale of decadence in the south. The peo ple in this crumbling wreck have been portrayed by the biting, bitter pen of Tennessee Williams, and are a hand picked cast of highly capable persons. Carroll Baker is excellent as the dimpled, dim-witted Baby Doll, who left school after col lidmg with long division in fourth grade.

Karl Maiden plays with ex- pertness the stupid Archie, teased and taunted by his wife and harassed by the eccentri cities of her gentle, senile old aunt Rose Comfort. It's a desolate but dynamic story, an angry analysis of ignorance and insularity in the deeD south. I did not find it either as suggestive or as shocking as some. There are some repellent scenes arid some unnecessarily sexy, but it is too bad that advance up- roar has highlighted the film's lesser facets. With a bit more directorial restraint, the film could have been a classic as is, the uniformly excellent performances make it a case history of four strange persons MOTION PICTURES DOWNTOWN 2:005:008:30 P.M.
