Because his latest' effort Upon a is as compact a little comedy as has been made In some time No big names here and the cost of the entire production must have been minor But Dassin has done a swell job Take a look at it Irene latest film in a is very much on the whacky side The Dunne lady is pretty close to tops in my book and walk many a mile to see her In almost anything she does in a then is
