From start to finish it was a pleasure to watch and, evidently, it was equally a joy for its six performers to dance. It was staged to some little Rossini "Sonatas." It had fresh ideas of movement, novel steps and flying leaps. It played hand in hand with Rossini's musical style by its vivacity, its humor, its passages of folkish dancing, and by its well-formed, quick-minded statements of action, repetitions and contrasts.

The best thing about it was that it created a warm personal relationship both between the dancers and what they physically were doing and between dancer -A If V'Y A 1 I I I HOLLYWOOD, July been writing about all-star casts for years but seldom has my trusty old typewriter clicked off a more glittering array than the one lined up for "I Love Louisa." Shirley MacLaine will be "Louisa" and now hang on! Her five co-stars are Paul Newman Robert Mit-chum Dean Martin Gene Kelly and Dick Van Dyke! Not since the old days has so much talent been packed into one film and it must be delighting the hearts of producer Arthur Jacobs and director J. Lee Thompson who are doing the film for their independent set-up at 20th Century-Fox. The deal was closed over the weekend with Richard Zanuck, production head of 20th. Jacobs is a former public relations man turned producer. Oh, yes Betty Comden and Adolph Green wrote the screenplay from the original by Gwen Davis plenty of talent of itself on the writing end.

THERE WAS QUITE a family re-union when Shirley MacLaine met the plane bringing her husband Steve Parker and daughter Sachie back to Hollywood from Tokyo. Sachie speaks four or five languages and is the very image of her mother. Shirley laughingly says that Sachie translates Japanese for her. Steve plans to go to work immediately on a movie for his Independent company, and while here will make arrangements to release it. Shirley will not be in this one because she is booked for the top role in "I Love Louisa." Steve had the cast on his leg removed, but is on short crutches now, and gets along quite well.

Steve McQueen and James Garner starred. A Aim and dancer as the choreography linked them, inter-played them with each other and brought thrm into contact. All of which represents a rare and most promising choreographic talent on Miss Vollmar'i part. All the program's performances made their point effectively, in spirit and in tireless execution. I took particular note of the light, fluid charm of Cynthia Gregory, of Gail Visentin's good looks and effervescent good nature and of the fact that Robert Gladstein was in a new grade of top form in "Sonnet."

To belong to the music with which it was working, Ordway's choreography should really have looked the way Schoenberg sounds. It didn't. Instead, it looked like a great deal of dancing you might see, with much more conventional sorts of music.

"Schoenberg Variations," which should have been aggressively individual ballet, turned out bland. On the same weekend program, two other recently premiered productions by dancers Jocelyn Voll-mar's "Sonnet" and Ron Poindexter's "The Set" were unquestionably and delightfully inspired by the particular music that generated them. At second view, "The Set" with its happy, witty, jazzy embodiment of Dave Brubeck score-turned out again to be just as triumphant as when I saw it the week before. And Miss Voll mar's "Sonnet," which I had misted the first time around, lived up to every compliment I heard about ACTORS at a moment when things were at a low ebb. I was in limbo, taking stock of myself.

I needed to reconcile my fears. I asked myself the usual questions: 'Who am 'What am I 'Where am I "I felt I needed to find answers to countless questions. And that is when the idea took root. Thus, would be a journey into the innerself. It would be a summoning-up of dreams, recollections, forgotten feel- ings, shadowy doubts, and a kind of eternal quest for self-knowledge and accept ance.

It would be a cat lytic film for myself, for the actors involved, and, I hoped, for the people who would see It."

Margot Fonteyn and her husband Roberto "Tito" Arias were at the dinner following a private showing of "The Ceremony" which Harvey produced, directed and starred in.

We drove down and were given a perfect table where looking out the window we could see sky rockets, Roman candles and all the glittering fireworks of our childhood. Earlier I drove by my daughter Harriet's house and met Elke Sommer's mother, who with Elke was enjoying our Independence Day.

Reproduction in whole or in part strictly prohibited) By ALEXANDER FRIED Frank Ordway, this past weekend, was the latest San Francisco Ballet dancer to be given a chance to create a new production for the summer Ballet '63 season, at the Ballet School Theater on 18th Ave.

In choosing music of Arnold Schoenberg for his "Schoenberg Variations," Ordway aimed at an unusual target of dance design. I must say he quite missed his main target, even though in a general sense his ballet (for eight girl and boy dancers) had a fair degree of merit. The merit lay in Ordway's ambitious thoughts about dance movement and in his ability to organize these thoughts into adequate sequence and unity. However, the dominant fact about Schoenberg's atonal music is that it has a sharply individual charactera character that talks up in dissonance, crabbed lines of melody and odd, scrapey instrumentation. No one could call it smooth, graceful music.

Rather it is an expression-istic music which grabs you by the lapel, glares closely into your face and chal they observed my working habits. They could not understand my not telling them to 'walk 'face this and 'do this' or 'do "The point," said the Italian director, "is that I can never impose a role on any actor. I must always make use of an actor's own individual qualities. These are the clues and keys that yield the characters of my films. And this often shocks them.

They do not believe that I want them only to be themselves, and that is precisely why I chose them. I assure you that in it was the actors who really helped shape my plot. "In playing my game the game of liberating an actor's real and personal emotions I am able to infuse a sense of life and spontaneity in their performances."

In me, Fellini saw some of his laziness, much of his weakness and indecision. "In order fully to uncover these qualities in me, he would simply talk. The more he talked the more I came to understand him, and myself as well. These talks were not, necessarily, about the film.

Fellini, you see, likes to have intimate conversations. He would tell me some of his personal problems; how he could not solve this or that facet of his life; how anxious and troubled he had, of late, become. Things, in short, one seldom talks about freely. UNDERSTANDING "Once we had reached a level of complete confidence, it was easy for me to project this deep sense of understanding to the role I was assigned to play."

"I play a game with my actors," said Federico Fellini, here from Italy for the opening of his latest film, "8." "It is a game whereby all the rules are dictated by the human qualities possessed by the actors I choose for my films." Marc ell Mastroianni, whom Fellini used to brilliant effect in "La Dolce Vita," was also in town to help launch the film, in which he stars. He. echoed these sentiments from the vantage point of one who has twice been on the giving as well as the receiving end of Fellini's "rules of the game." "Fellini a 1 1 me up, one night, about a year and a half ago, and said he wanted to talk to me about an idea for a film. When I saw him he told me he wanted to do a movie about a man seeking to find himself. It would be the story, played on many levels, of an inner search.

A reconstruction of a life that had come to a stop artistically, morally and spiritually." HIS VOICES In effect, as Mastroianni recounted it, Fellini was "hearing his voices" that told him a new idea had germinated and he was ready to discuss it.
