CURRENT & CHOICE
This Angry Age. A strong but uneven picture, derived from The Sea Wall, a memorable novel about French pioneers in Indo-China; with Anthony Perkins and Jo Van Fleet (TIME, June 9).
Gigi. Colette's slender novelette, larded up with production values and brought forth as a big fat musical; but the show is saved by Cecil Beaton's fruitily fin de sieecle sets and costumes--a cinemuseum of exquisite eyesores (TIME, May 19).
Rouge et Noir. The edge of Stendhal's satire dulled by sentiment, but all the same a good movie from a great novel; with Geerard Philipe, Danielle Darrieux, Antonella Lualdi (TIME, May 5).
The Young Lions. Irwin Shaw's bestseller about World War II, clarified by an intelligent script and two gifted actors, Marlon Brando and Montgomery Clift (TIME, April 14).
Stage Struck. Local girl making good on Broadway--the hard way; with Susan Strasberg, Henry Fonda (TIME, April 7).
The Bridge on the River Kwai. Winner of seven Academy Awards as 1957's best picture by the year's best director (David Lean) with the year's best actor (Alec Guinness)--a magnificent war story (TIME, Dec. 23).
