Ntvr mavaM mmw imwiihj POX TAVi rn Dean Jagger Romances Gaynor; Deal to Join Fairbanks and Dragon BY EDWIN SCHALLERT Dean Jagger, who won an Oscar for "Twelve O'clock High" made by 20th, returns to the studio of his good fortune for "Bernadine." He will attempt to promote a romance with Janet Gaynor, who has top billing In the feature with Pat Boone and Terry Moore. Natalie Scha- er also joins the film as the mother of Boone. Jagger will appear as a wealthy personage in the production based on the Mary Chase stage play, which will start 4.

Most interesting is the return of one Jeffrey Stone, who has been appearing in European films for three and a half years. He has been selected for "Stalin Is Alive" with Lex Barker and Zsa Zsa Gabor at U-I. He will play newscaster and close friend of Barker in the picture. Stone is becoming very well known, especially to the juvenile audience, for his impersonation of D'Artagnan in The Three Musketeers TV series. His last feature in this country was "Fighter Attack" made in 1953 and he most recently appeared In Spain in "The Miracle for Chico" filmed both in English and Spanish and not as yet released here.

Stone was formerly under contract to 0. Selznick. JODY McCREA STRIKES OUT INDEPENDENTLY Jody McCrea has tightened up his belt and is going in for a movie career in earnest, and independently. Oddly enough he will get his first assignment under the new which brings together for the first time two of Hollywood's most rugged-type actors. In the film, opening tomorrow at the Fox Wilshire Theater, Ryan portrays the hardhitting lieutenant who leads his men in war.

Aldo Ray appears as the rebellious ser geant who has had it. Robert Keith, Nehemiah Persoff, Vic Morrow and others are in support. "Men In War" is the story of a platoon charged with taking an objective. wife's hopes, her despair and, later, blankness of mind. In the large cast-to-type company are Anthony Quayle as the defense lawyer, Harold J.

Stone and Charles Cooper as the detectives and Esther Minciotti and Nehemiah Per soff as family relatives. The realistic screenplay is by Maxwell Anderson and Angus MacPhail and the lean, laconic score by Bernard Herrmann. The Warner Bros, film in black and white, naturally is at Downtown Paramount, Wiltern, New Fox Hollywood, Academy, Picwood and eight Pacific drive-ins. With it is "Magic Fire," life of Richard Wagner, in color. i Tin.

It is a distraction that one watches almost with resentmentlife piling it on more thickly than the dramatist Quick Brush-off Manny is freed at the last in a sequence that stresses, if it does not overstress, a religious note. The fade-out is too brusque, a printed title reporting the wife's recovery two years later.

This is like TV; from the Hollywood Hitchcock we deserve better. Henry Fonda portrays Manny. He does no acting as such, going to his living death white-faced but out wardly stoical. The agony is all jn his expression, voice, bearing. Vera Miles mirrors the nmnraiMiiili- I 1 mni chul Pnc IVES Ha ntt it 8:15 pm SUN.

FAIRBANKS JR.

Ha SHOWS Aganciw Fatmaw Matfctt BY PHILIP K. SCHEUER In "The Wrong Man," Al fred Hitchcock has stripped away all the pnotograpnic gingerbread of "The Man Who Knew Too Mucft" ana told his story straight. It is a downbeat, depressing ex perience from start to but it is the re-enactment of a true one ana tne viewer can have nothing but admi ration for its and HitchH cock's absolute, integrity.

As drama, unhappily, It proves again that life can be more interminable than fic tion. "The Wrong Man" depicts, down to the smallest significant detail, what it's like to be arrested. And with Hitchcock doing the depicting, the ordeal is one that, like Cinerama, puts you right in the picture. What makes it all doubly painful, filling one with helpless indignation, is the fact that the man who is arrested is so palpably innocent, the wrong man. Suspect Picked Up He is Manny Balestrero, a bass-fiddle player at Man hattan's Stork Club, and on Jan.

14, 1953, two detectives from the 110th Precinct Station come to his home in Queens and pick him up as suspect in two separate hold-ups of Associated Life, an insurance firm. For Manny, an average Joe, it is all too much; in the days and weeks that follow, he moves automaton-like through a nightmare from which there is no waking, only dimly perceiving the forces closing in on him. He reminded me, indeed, of another lonely figure, this one in fiction the character known only as in Franz Kafka's memorable "The Clinching Evidence Witnesses claim they rec ognize Balestrero as the holdup man. There is a "rough similarity" between his hand writing and that of the rob ber. Manny's inadvertent spelling of "draw" for drawer seems to clinch the evidence against him.

He is, at any rate, booked. BOB AND KATE SIMPLY GREAT!

Lita Milan, under contract to the Associates and Robert Aldrich, for one production during 1957, will also be tested by Director Richard Thorpe for "Tip on a Dead Jockey." Jacques Bergerac will fall heir to the John Barrymore role of Arseno Lupin on TV, and after one Climax! engagement will probably turn this into a series. Meanwhile, MGM, which owns the feature film rights, and which also has Bergerac in the picture "Les Girls," will probably be on the alert to determine whether Bergerac is a possibility for a movie remake.
