Adam and Evalyn (Rank; Universal-International) is a British movie cut to an old Hollywood pattern--not a very good pattern by the standards of moviemaking on either side of the Atlantic. A dashing young society gambler (Stewart Granger) promises a dying buddy to take his daughter out of an orphanage and give her a home. The girl (Jean Simmons) is an ungainly waif who takes Granger for her father. He finally sets her straight and packs her off to a Swiss finishing school, which returns her to him as a glamorous dish. She consents to marry, and he to reform. Actress Simmons, who freshens up the old ugly-duckling routine with her considerable charm and good looks, also transforms the picture into something relatively painless.
